Google Buys an Online Ad Firm for $3.1 Billion - New York Times
Not particularly understanding why Google wants to go into a business it has been avoiding. They made their money on text advertising after it proved to be more successful than banner advertisements.

Kanoodle vs. Google
I've used both services, but I think Kanoodle ends up being the better choice for individual web publishers in the long run. Google (GOOG) may have higher revenue per click for web based advertising, but I've been able to make more money from Kanoodle's RSS feed feature.
Unfortunately, most web publishers only think of Google for their advertising features and overlook smaller providers which may provide them with larger checks.
Google may have a dominant hold on providing advertising for small websites but any other provider with better payouts can take Google's market share.

Angioplasty effectiveness questioned
"Those patients now should try drugs first, experts say. If that does not help, they can consider angioplasty or bypass surgery, which unlike angioplasty, does save lives, prevent heart attacks and give lasting chest pain relief."

"A chance to cut is a chance to cure"
Medicine is constantly debating back and forth between treatments. Change is inevitable, and it's good to question old standards with research. The worst thing to do is not to debate.

Another good time to buy NYX
NYX dropped precipitously after the market drop on Tuesday, February 28, 2007. The DOW dropped nearly 500 points at the lowest part of the day mostly due to concerns of a slowing economy in China and also some economic concerns in the US. The day was also marked by a sudden 200 point caused by a delay in the Dow Jones calculations that was corrected abruptly. This was a problem with the Dow Jones calculation of the DJIA and not a problem with the New York Stock Exchange. The stock is down sharply to 84 after rising to a level of 95 in the last week. The stock should correct back towards the low 90s in the next couple of weeks. No other significant news has been present.
Looking at the charts, the stock moves rapidly up when it starts to approach its lower Bollinger band. This has happened a few times in the last year.
