Interesting MSN City Guides article about a growing trend in restaurants using all parts of animals in preparing their menus. It's not only healthy, but environmentally friendly too! Also, that's a mighty fine headline if I may say so :)
Quoted: Some high-end eateries are going whole hog (cow, lamb, chicken—you name it) by using every part of an animal.

Emily Yoffe writes great stories. Since she's a pet-owner, she really pinpoints what's wrong (and right) in the veterinary industry today (not that I have a pet...)
Quoted: In 2004, Americans spent $18 billion to treat America's 164 million dogs and cats. Sure, you may have a health-care directive that begs your loved one to pull the plug. Grandpa's hospital bed may have a "Do Not Resuscitate" order. But how can anyone be heartless enough to refuse to treat their dead dog?

interesting... and more people are keeping cats as indoor pets than they used to.
Quoted: Children exposed to higher levels of cat allergen in their first 2 years of life may be at greater risk of becoming allergic to the animals, a new study from Germany shows. However, the risk of sensitization at 6 years old seems to disappear.

Quoted: U.S. physicians need to catch up with other industrialized nations -- such as Australia, Great Britain, the Netherlands and New Zealand -- in adopting electronic health records to enhance medical care and reduce costs.
If this country does not accelerate the conversion from paper to electronic health records, many health care reform promises will become irrelevant.
