Dr. Jay always says it like it is. Visit Hello Health if you want a great doctor who is delivering medicine like you want.

I think, and I hope, the best thing to come out of health reform is a very visible understanding across the population that our process of creating laws is broken and serves the will of corporations rather than the will of the people. Our processes need to be redesigned and updated to prevent companies from tampering with our nation’s best interests.

Google Chrome Split Screen Code

I’m a big fan of the new Google Chrome browser, particularly searching without history with the “incognito browser”. The best trick this pony has is the dual split screen window with dual address bars. Writing side-by-side to my research is so much nicer (or like right now watching Louis CK on youtube on the right while writing on the left side of the page.)

Click on Chrome Plugins for code. And as an added bonus it should work on Safari too.

For individual address bars.
