They are hosting a number of educational discussions across the U.S. throughout April that may be of interest to you. Beginning Saturday, April 10th, thousands of families throughout the United States will have a rare opportunity to learn about new breakthroughs and emerging treatments in mental health by the nation’s best and brightest mental health researchers. “Healthy Minds Across America,” a series of free forums open to the public, will take place every weekend from April 10 – May 8, culminating with the beginning of Mental Health Awareness Month in May.

The study involved 488 initially healthy people, average age 79, who enrolled in the Bronx Aging Study between 1980 and 1983. These individuals were followed for 5 years with assessments every 12 to 18 months (starting in 1980). At the start of the study, all participants were asked how many cognitive activities (reading, writing, crossword puzzles, board or card games, group discussions, or playing music) they participated in and for how many days a week. Researchers were able to evaluate the imp...

Unfortunately, I was sorely disappointed by what I found. There was almost no discussion on the website and it was really hard to even figure out how someone could comment. Basically, it’s just a real simple blog implementation. They do allow comments, but they require you to register before you comment. If you’re trying to create discussions about EMR, then that’s the very worst thing you could do. At the end of the day, it all goes back to expectations. I was hoping for a killer forum for people to really discuss important EMR topics. Tha...

he’s shaking things up at Ford Model’s, John Caplan said, "I’m more like the conductor of an orchestra, than an old-fashioned executive.” Does that describe your approach? Caplan's orchestra metaphor reminds us that wherever you spot insights or innovations at a deeper level you’ll also see a maestro conductor, or facilitator. So why does it rarely happen?Instead of the fine interchanges found in peak-performance orchestras, you often find potentially good discussions truncated instead, because:- one voice dominates - strong demands for one-sided view- a few people diminishing other voices- anger rising whenever  topics heat upWhile topnotch catalyst skills can be mastered by most … they rarely show up at firms, that la...

But like many large social networks, it is a part of the “hidden Internet” because it is conducted exclusively through electronic mailing lists (or “listservs,” after a type of popular software that runs them). Online mailing lists have been around online since the 1980s, and yet still many people are unfamiliar with them and how they work. An electronic mailing list is a simple device that allows you to send an email to a large group of people transparently, and without having to type in everyone’s email address each time you want to email them. It’s sort of like a global email alias. Mailing lists tend to be topic-based, and you can choose to receive th...

So, what is this myLot anyway? I may have blogged about this already (but I can’t recall when I posted it…or if I posted it hehe) but still, let me just have another go at it. myLot is a site where you can have some discussion about anything that interests you, post a general question and wait for users to comment on it.  You can also ...
