Tips on finding reliable health information on the internet - SeekWellness

Tuesday, August 12, 2008 by Mistlee

SeekWellness today and always August 2008 - Bonus Edition

Do you find yourself struggling to find reliable information about your health condition on the internet? Not sure where to go, what to search for or whom to trust? Here are some questions to ask yourself when you find health information on the web to determine if it is reliable.

  1. Who publishes the website and what is the purpose of the site? On any website, there should be a link to the “about us” section, which will give you details regarding who is running the site and what the purpose of the site is. For example, with SeekWellness, the “about us” page states that SeekWellness.com is owned by a group of professional health care providers and consumers. It further explains the purpose and mission as well as how the site is funded.

  2. Where is the information coming from and how is it selected? It is important to find details about the articles you are reading. Check for an author. Does the author have credentials that qualify him/her to be writing such an article? Make sure to check for references. Any articles including statistics or facts should be backed up by references. At SeekWellness, the majority of our articles are written by our expert staff and we carefully select contributors who are experts in their field. For example, Diane K Newman, RNC, MSN, CRNP, FAAN has been an incontinence nurse for over 20 years and is the director of our incontinence center. She has contributed several articles to SeekWellness.com, all of which are clearly marked directly underneath the title of the article, and references are listed at the end of each page.

  3. How easily can you contact someone from the website? There should always be a way for you to contact the site owner if you come across any questions or concerns. There should be a “contact us” section with a way to email or contact the site owner. Additionally, if the website has forums or chat rooms, you should find out if they are moderated and if so by whom. Always use caution when using discussion boards. In most cases, forum messages are contributed by individuals writing of their own personal experiences and may not include expert advice. It is important to discuss information you learn with your doctor.

  4. How to determine if a site is unreliable. A good rule of thumb: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Here are other cues that a site may not be reliable:
    • Sites promising quick, dramatic results.
    • Sites claiming that their product/pill can cure a variety of illnesses.
    • Sites relying on secret ingredients.
    • Sites that use a lot of exclamation points to emphasize their point.

Although the web can be a great source for information, there are many websites that are not reliable and present half-truths and myths. Make sure you do your research to ensure the information you are finding is accurate. SeekWellness.com is a great example of websites presenting reliable information to their audiences. And always remember that information you find on the Internet does not replace your doctor’s advice. Your doctor knows your medical history and is offering advice based on your own personal health. No website can do that.

BBQ tips, Freedom for women & no diapers - SeekWellness Today

Don't be normal!

Mothers dread to hear a teacher or other authority figure say, "Your child is not normal." I'm afraid my mother got that news more than once. Of course it can be bad news if it's a medical doctor telling the poor woman her new baby has three heads, but on most occasions, it might be appropriate to allow for the possibility that not being normal has its advantages. Why? Normalcy is overrated. To be normal in America is to be overweight, unfit, stressed, overfed and undernourished.

Cooking outdoors was once only a summer activity shared with family and friends. Now more than half of Americans say they are cooking outdoors year round. It's important to follow food safety guidelines to prevent harmful bacteria from multiplying and causing foodborne illness. Use these simple guidelines for grilling food safely.

Transporting Meats/Poultry
When shopping, buy cold food like meat and poultry last, right before checkout. To protect foods against cross-contamination, put packages of raw meat and poultry into plastic bags. Plan to drive directly home from the grocery store. Always refrigerate perishable food within 2 hours. Refrigerate within 1 hour when the temperature is above 90 °F. At home, place meat and poultry in the refrigerator immediately. Freeze poultry and ground meat that won't be used in 1 or 2 days; freeze other meat within 4 to 5 days.

Many women can relate to the feeling of walking into a less-than-clean public restroom. Feeling safe involves covering the seat with endless amounts of toilet paper, squatting to avoid making contact with the toilet, shuffling to find a comfortable position, all the while trying to make sure that your clothing doesn’t touch the dirty floor. This situation is very common in many public restrooms, but now you can avoid it completely by using a new, innovative product. When nature calls, the WhizEasy gives women the freedom to pass urine wherever and whenever they choose. This soft and gentle device allows women of all ages to urinate into a toilet while standing.

The WhizEasy, is a urine guide that has been carefully designed as a flexible lily shape which fits comfortably to the outer curves of the human body. It is externally held against the private area. When a woman starts urinating, nature and gravity do the rest. Urine is directed away from the body so there are no flowbacks, splashes or spills, you don't even have to remove outer or under clothing.

Every girl and woman can use the Whiz Easy for convenience in the outdoors or to avoid dirty, unsanitary public facilities. It is useful for anyone who has difficulty squatting, hovering or getting to the bathroom quickly. For the sports enthusiast, leisure user or individuals with various medical conditions, its uses are unlimited.

Information Security Certification Guide

By Dan Morrill

Information Security Certifications are part of the credentialing landscape for an information security professional, and in many ways, those just generally interested in the subject.

Search Security writers Ed Tittel and Kim Lindros have put together the definitive list of the top 50 information security certificates and certification paths for those who are serious about getting their information security certification.

In fact, the sheer number of credentials can make navigating the security certification landscape a dizzying experience. Simply identifying the vast array of offerings can be time consuming and overwhelming -- never mind determining which certification best fits your situation. Source: Search Security

There is always going to be concerns about the money, the time, and the value of a security certificate. The question comes in as to how much you want to have any hope at job security. There is job security in information security by keeping your skills up and adopting life long learning. That is a reality, even if you get canned from one company, having a string of letters after your name can help, as long as it is not too many. If you have a dozen use only the three latest ones on your title, while interesting, if you have a dozen, it looks like all you did was go to school.


The very good part about the Search Security article is that they really do cover the whole certificate landscape in line with what people might want to do. Do you want a generalist or a specialized certificate? One thing they do not do is go into the comparable wage process for each security certificate (you have to make sure there is a payoff for the certificate, if there is no bump in dollars for having it, then it is not worth getting because everyone else has it and the market is diluted).

This is one of those career planning articles that would do folks looking to start out, or those seasons veterans looking for something new, to plan and plot out their information security careers. The key here is to keep on learning, keep on being challenged, and keep on building your marketability always.

Clipperz's Zero-Knowledge Web Application

Friday, June 20, 2008 by Mistlee

Clipperz's Zero-Knowledge Web Application

By Savio Rodrigues

I previously wrote about Clipperz because I really think Marco and team at Clipperz have a great idea. To summarize, Clipperz has technology for "zero-knowledge web applications" which they have applied to an online password manager as a proof of concept. Marco writes:

"We simply meant that Clipperz knows nothing about its users and their data!

As a consequence of the "learn nothing" mantra, every zero-knowledge application should be completely anonymous, or at least it should make it impossible to relate the real name or email of a user to his data"

It seems that Richard Stallman agrees that Clipperz technology could be very useful in the cloud-based computing world that awaits us.

The guys at Clipperz and RMS have been talking about how Clipperz's technology could provide freedom and privacy in the cloud. To that end, they suggest (summarized from here):

Choose AGPL: If your services are based on software with an AGPL license, you have to make the source code available to anyone that uses the service

Add zero-knowledge sauce: The server hosting the web app could know nothing of its users, not even their usernames

Build a smarter brower: We still need to provide users of web apps with an even more flexible and secure environment.


To expand on #3, Marco writes:

"Stallman suggests adding a feature to the browser allowing a user to say: "When you get URL X, use the Javascript from URL Y as if it came from URL X." If the user does invoke this feature, he can run his copy of the Javascript and still being able to exchange data with the server hosting the web application.

A browser with such capabilities could also easily verify if the Javascript from URL X is different from the alternative Javascript stored at URL Y. If the user trusts the present release of the Javascript code from URL X, he could make a copy of it at URL Y and be alerted if any change occurs.

This solution protects the user from malicious code that could be unknowingly executed by his browser, stealing his data and destroying the whole zero-knowledge architecture "

Personally, I think #2 and #3 are great ideas. I'm having trouble with #1, the AGPL requirement. From an academic standpoint, I can agree with it. But if we're asking Google, Amazon, Microsoft, IBM, Sun, HP, etc. to use AGPL'd code, it could become an uphill battle.

Using the AGPL'd widget (from Clipperz in this case) that enables a "zero knowledge web application" is not the problem. However, the viral nature of the AGPL would be a concern for any vendor who intends to drive revenue from their proprietary code/application delivered via a SaaS from a Cloud. I guess that these vendors could always license the Clipperz technology...

Developing Your Site's Search Engine

By Mike Moran

I'm old enough to remember when fathers and sons thought nothing of overhauling their own car engines-back before cars became little IT shops that need specialized equipment to repair.

As a certified girly-man, I cringe at even the thought of overhauling an engine, but I do know how to overhaul your site search engine. (You won't even get dirt under your fingernails.)

Search engines are complicated, which means that one size does not fit all. You need to be ready to customize the way your search engine operates so that it best fits your business and your customers.

Each search engine provides different dials to turn and levers to pull, but here are some of the most important:

Default Boolean operator. We'll forgive you if your first reaction is, "What the heck is a default Boolean operator?" Don't be intimidated by the terminology-the name refers to how the search engine treats multi-word queries. If a searchers enters digital cameras, does the search engine look for pages containing both "digital" AND "cameras"? Or pages containing either "digital" OR "cameras"? It's your search facility, so you get to decide. Defaulting to AND usually provides more precise results, but also more "not founds."

NO RACK FEES for the first month of service

Rank-factor boosting. Search engines use myriad factors to rank search results. When it's your site search engine, those factors are under your control. Don't be afraid to tweak the weighting of your ranking factors and test the results. Most site search facilities benefit from customizing ranking factors for improved relevance.

Linguistic and synonym dictionaries. To improve recall, you can request that your search engine expand its matching to include linguistic variants and synonyms of the keywords the searcher uses. Sometimes this kind of expansion can produce spurious results, but you can customize the dictionaries so that only the most helpful related terms are used.

Country and language filters. If your Web site sells to people of multiple countries or languages, you need to ensure that your search results are limited to the country/language combination they expect. Your conversion rates will skyrocket if you properly filter the right country results for the right person.

Expect your search engine to need some customization to provide optimal results. Now you at least know the basics to pay attention to.
