Nurses Have To Translate When Medical Devices Fail To Communicate

Walk past a patient's hospital room, and the flashing control panels on devices by the bed might make you think you're peering at the cockpit of a 737. Medical technology can make patient care better and more precise.

Are Robots Better Than Humans?
Not If Jobs Are Lost

For several years, as America struggled through its most severe "jobless recovery" since the end of World War II, it has been out there. The robot question. Economists have watched the rise of a new generation of sophisticated automation, including ever-more-capable robots, and wondered how it would affect human employment.

Did you know that your kitchen countertop is probably dirtier that your toilet seat? It's true, and studies have shown that there is more E. coli in your kitchen sink than inside of your r toilet after it is flushed.
