...table by your side. The radio dial casts a dim glow. You're relaxed, listening to the immensely popular Chase and Sanborn Hour, starring Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy. It's weird, listening to a ventriloquist and his dummy on the radio - how can you be sure Bergen's not cheating? - but the two of them are funny enough. A few minutes pass before some joker of a singer comes on. Time to switch the dial. All you want's the dummy...
...national data on hospital performance exists already. But doctors say that certain aspects of care can't be assessed without input from the patient: treatment of pain, for instance. (About a third of HCAHPS surveyed patients said their pain was not always treated adequately.) Doctors also want to make sure that patient-doctor communication is up to par. Patients who fully understand care instructions when they leave the hospital, for example, are more likely to stay out of the emergency room down the line. In total, the HCAHPS survey asked 27 questions about patients' demographic characteristics and eight areas...

In the Oct. 14 debate, a panel member explored the idea of Key as a Nowhere Man, the candidate having admitted in an interview that while he was a commerce student at the University of Canterbury, he'd had no strong feelings about...
...starter Ian Wilson, who averages over 10 tackles per game. Should Dartmouth hope to pull a huge upset over the Crimson, it must improve in all aspects of the offensive game, including controlling the time of possession. With a running game averaging only 47.7 yards per game, this will surely be difficult to accomplish against a veteran Harvard defensive front seven. “The whole thing comes down to execution. We expect [our younger players] to step up, whether it’s making that critical block or good throw,” Teevens said. “We?...
