This document summarizes the results of a Kaiser Family Foundation poll on public views about the Affordable Care Act. The poll found that:
- Conversations with friends and family were the most common source of information about the ACA, followed by cable TV news and other media.
- When asked about their most important source, those citing conversations reported hearing a mix of positive and negative information, while those citing media reported more negative information.
- Overall views of the ACA remain mixed and polarized along partisan lines, with slightly more holding unfavorable than favorable views. A narrow majority support continued efforts to change or stop the law.

FDA Cybersecurity Recommendations to Comply with NIST - Wearables Crash Cours...Epstein Becker Green
Epstein Becker Green Webinar with Attorney Kim Tyrrell-Knott - Wearables Crash Course Webinar Series - June 21, 2016.

Nearly one in three deaths caused by vehicular accidents in America implicates a driver with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of at least 0.08 percent. The law recognizes drivers with 0.08 percent or higher BAC as compromised by alcohol.
FDA Media Study revised as of April 21, 2013. Revision number 1.
The FDA media study focuses on the last two weeks of the 2012 Alberta provincial election regarding the newspaper, radio, and television media sectors. The FDA collected data from two major media corporations in each sector and presents the relevant findings in the following report. It found that the PC Party and Wildrose Alliance Party had 65.2% of total media exposure and the seven other registered parties had 34.8% of total media exposure. Five of these seven parties had 4.1% of the total exposure. These results are similar to the actual election results in terms of percentage of coverage and percentage of popular vote received, and identical in terms of media and election result rankings of parties. The Alberta Legislature does not regulate provincial media in terms of election coverage. Therefore, the FDA recommends reform in media practices that should include some form of regulation such as a code of media conduct during elections and/or required election coverage for parties based on, for instance, the number of candidates each party endorses in an election. The high degree of media concentration in the Alberta press and television sectors may be a contributing factor to the inequitable coverage of the various parties.

FTC Spring Privacy Series: Consumer Generated and Controlled Health DataBrian Ahier
Increasingly, consumers are taking a more active role in managing and generating their own health data. For example, consumers are researching their health conditions and diagnosing themselves online. Consumers are also uploading their information into personal health records and apps that allow them to manage and analyze their data, and utilizing connected health and fitness devices that regularly collect information about them and transmit this information to other entities.
The movement of health data outside the traditional medical provider context has many potential benefits; however, it also raises potential privacy concerns. The seminar will address questions such as:
What types of websites, products, and services are consumers using to generate and control their health data, and how are consumers using them?
Who are the companies behind these websites, products, and services, what are their business models, and what does the current marketplace look like?
How can consumers benefit from these companies’ websites, products, and services?
What actions are these companies taking to protect consumers’ privacy and security?
What do consumers expect from these companies regarding privacy and security protections?
Do consumers differentiate between these companies and those that offer traditional medical products and services that are covered by HIPAA?
What restrictions, if any, do advertising networks and others impose on tracking of health data?

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
