Yet another new look …
Trying another new wordpress theme. I think I like it. I still wish it either was a little narrower or had unfixed column widths (I know that makes no sense – I’ll explain it to you one day …), but I think it’s still nice. It’s open and easy to read, and I think that…

CDC Changes HIV Screening Recommendations
This is interesting. The CDC seems to be suggesting pretty drastic changes in HIV screening procedures: For patients in all health-care settings HIV screening is recommended for patients in all health-care settings after the patient is notified that testing will be performed unless the patient declines (opt-out screening). Persons at high risk for HIV infection…

These are fantastic!
First, from the O’Reilly Network (no relation to Fox News) via Neatorama: Proof that programmers have a sense of humor.

Follow-up to A&R Letter
This is a quick follow-up to this post from a couple of days ago. I’ve now read the two articles referred to, and agree that there’s some funny stuff going on here. I don’t really doubt the conclusions, but I think the authors really do have to explain some things.

I’m not sure why I didn’t get the TOC email, but I found out through the grape vine and have taken a preliminary look through it. Sorry, you can only read it if you have a prescription. Jumping Jehosephat! It’s packed with good…

Another Change in Look
Yes, my second in two days! I really just couldn’t get past the fixed page width of the other theme! It looked so cramped! And the font was a little big. It just wasn’t right. But I liked the header, so I brought it here. Not quite as impressive, but not so bad either. Anyway,…

On HIV Denial
I did something very interesting yesterday. I posted a comment on Tara Smith’s Aetiology in response to an HIV denier. He was making some comments that just didn’t track with everything I’ve learned about HIV, so I thought I’d try to address some of his misconceptions. Big mistake. Boy did I get flamed. I don’t…
