The polar bear

Just released is a new report showing the detrimental affects global warming is having on polar bears. I'm glad we don't have to take any of this global warming stuff serious. Maybe if we just continue to ignore the problem, it will go away on its own!

Hospitals & cell phones

If you've been to a hospital in the past few years, you undoubtedly saw the "NO CELL PHONES" signs posted throughout the hospital.

If you are anything like me, you probably refrained from testing this theory due to the causing sever problems for the patients attached to the electronic equipment.

Today, techdirt.com reveals new research that shows using a cell phone in a hospital is not as dangerous as once thought, and using the cell phone on hospital grounds may actually be beneficial. You can read the entire (short) story here.

I wonder who conducted the study that defied the "all knowing" hospital?
