Having had the fortune and misfortune of deploying or attempting to deploy an electronic medical in three state systems does make me somewhat of an expert on the process. I feel like Thomas Edison, I now know a number of ways of " how not to make a light bulb."" This article will be a multi-part presentation of what are some of the "road lessons- that we have learned by "boldly going where no one has gone before."" .
Why would anyone want to subject himself or herself to such a radically different way of conducting the process of providing health care?

Speaking of which, one must also learn a new language of sorts to speak to the IT people "a bit of an oxymoron which is "information technology."" .

A research, which had been done by Mary Jo Bane in Zinn's article, supports what Coontz is trying to prove. Bane's research contradicts the common knowledge about how the change of the family structure causes most poverty. ... As Bane explains, some of the female-headed households, who are in poverty, were already in poverty before the family structure was broken. Zinn uses Bane's idea to contradict the notion that family structure changes causes most of the poverty we facing now. ...

Through works such as James Boon's, "Why Museums Make Me Sad," one can see the obvious need for the evolution of museums from "cabinets" to true and fair representations of culture. ... James Boon studies the notion of viewing cultures in museums as sad, seeing what little museums truly reveal about cultures as falling short.
