Round Up : Recent Topics of Interest

Here are some recent things I found of interest:

– Technorati ran a sad story about how the poor end up at the worst hospitals.

– Boingboing had what I found to be an interesting story about a lawyer that was "extracting" money out of porn viewers. I took it as another warning for people that think they can’t be tracked on the internet.

– Four Loko has agreed to change the way they advertise and in reusable containers.

– Injuryboard member, Doug Landau, does a great job of explaining what insurance subrogation is in the context of bicycle collisions.

– Fairwarning discussed a study that found that the advertising of the big fast food places is so good that it convinces children to want the "food" even over the opposition of their parents.
