Estou usando (ou tentando usar a versao 0.5.1 do OpenSimulator). Percebo que os botoes Chat e IM nao estao disponiveis a todo o tempo (nao sei se e um problema ou pq nao ha avatares disponiveis para conversar). Outra problema e que no OSGrid nem sempre os lugares que eu estava no ultimo acesso ficam disponiveis. Isto me preocupa no sentido de criar objetos de aprendizagem e ter que ter "constancia" / estabilidade nos locais. Demora muito para carregar as vestimentas tb. Vejam que estudo interessante sobre a reducao da mortalidade cardiovascular em Cuba no final da decada de 90, o chamado periodo especial, periodo apos a queda da URSS no qual houve grande racionamento de alimentos e energia levando a uma queda media no peso do cubano e aumento na media de atividade fisica.AbracosRodrigohttp://www.cmaj.ca/cgi/reprint/178/8/1032 Shortage of Doctors in Primary Care May Harm Health of Nation: More U.S. Physicians Educated OverseasPosted 05/23/2008With new federal findings bolstering concerns about shrinking ranks of primary care physicians, advocates are looking to critically underbudgeted programs that if properly funded could help prevent a widening of the health care gap.According to research released by the U.S. Government Accountability Office in February, U.S. medical school graduates enrolled in primary care residency programs, such as family medicine and pediatrics, fell from 23,800 in 1995 to just more than 22,100 in 2006. While there are many reasons behind the declining primary care numbers, GAO pointed to an "undervaluing" of the field within the health care marketplace as well as an over-reliance on specialty services as main contributing factors. The widening income gap between primary care physicians and those in specialty fields warrants more federal attention, GAO reported, especially as access to primary care is often associated with better health outcomes and less health care costs. A. Bruce Steinwald, director of GAO's health care team, presented the agency's findings in testimony during a Feb. 12 Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions hearing on the "Crisis in the Primary Care Physician Workforce.""A paradox commonly cited about the U.S. health care system is that the nation spends more per capita than all other industrialized nations but ranks consistently low in such quality and access measures as life expectancy, infant mortality, preventable deaths and percentage of population with health insurance," Steinwald reported.GAO's testimony comes as Congress considers the future of the federal effort known as Title VII, a program administered via the U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration and created to shore up the nation's supply of primary care medicine and dentistry professionals as well as to improve diversity among medical students. Title VII supports primary care education and training through a variety of means, including scholarships and loans, and plays a critical role in bringing primary care to under-served and disadvantaged communities. Unlike specialty fields, primary care is an "essential foundation of a well-performing health system" and often serves as the "patient's door into the health care system and the patient's guide through the system," according to hearing testimony submitted by Kevin Grumbach, MD, co-director of the Center for Excellence in
