Need drug info away from a computer?

This announcement was paid for by Epocrates.

Are you a doctor who has been away from your computer and desperately needed free drug reference for iphone? Yeah? Well, I hope your patient was alright. That's not good...but now there is a solution to this problem. It's called Epocrates.

So physicians (otherwise known as doctors) are going mobile. And I'm talkin' iPhone style baby. (The only way to use a phone.) Drug information is always on call with Epocrates. It's fantastic. More than half of the doctors around now use PDAs or smartphones, and they are a big reason why. Their medical reference software is used by over 500,000 healthcare professionals, dog! That's a ton! Wowzers! They have a completely loaded drug guide on their PDA or smartphone. These clinicians are ballin'! They can access all this great information that they need to prescribe the right medicine. And at a moment's notice! They can access information to help you with drug dosing, side effects and health plan coverage. Does anybody else see how ridiculously cool this is???

Want an example though? Well, if a physician named Dr. something is prescribing an antibiotic for a stubborn sinus infection, but the patient is already on Coumadin, then Dr. Something (stop calling me something) would pull out his tricked-out PDA/smartphone and try to find any possible harmful interactions between the two drugs. That way, he will know before he rights the prescription. He doesn't even have to leave the exam room to find a computer, or to ask his nurse. He doesn't have to deal with any of that!

You still want to know more? You want to know exactly what the Epocrates drug reference guide offers? Okay. How about this:

Free medical Pocket PC software
Free medical Palm software
Free medical Windows Mobile software

They also launched a free drug reference for BlackBerry devices if you have one of those and use BB Messenger. And they aren't stopping there. They are working closely with Apple to develop a downloadable drug guide for iPhones too! That will be great when that comes out. But in the meantime, doctors with an iPhone or iPod Touch can access Epocrates content by visiting m.epcorates.com on their Safari web browser.

Spencer ruins Heidi's life some more

The Hills won’t be alive in Washington this weekend, after all. MTV reality starlet Heidi Montag has backed out of plans to attend the 2008 White House Correspondents’ Gala on Saturday, April 26th after her uninvited fiance Spencer Pratt demanded an invitation-and first-class airfare to the Nation’s Capital. After his divalicious demand were met with a resounding HELL NO! from Heidi’s sponsor, MSNBC, Spencer, acting as Heidi’s “manager,” promptly cancelled the asipiring singer’s appearance at the event .

The New York Post reports:

MSNBC had invited Montag to be a guest at its table at the Washington Hilton. “Then Spencer got involved as her manager…He demanded first-class tickets for both him and Heidi - even though he wasn’t invited.,,,When the network balked, Pratt canceled Montag’s appearance, claiming, according to our source, “It wasn’t ‘A-listy’ enough.”

What a silly idiot. Spencer, get real man. You are nobody. Get it through that frosted head of yours (cliche insult).

Back home again in jail

Shocking new details have emerged regarding Amy Winehouse's insane night out on the town earlier this week that we told y'all about!

According to reports, Wino ATTACKED 2 people that night.

And that's just the start of it!

- Musician Mustapha el Mounmi claims Ames hit him because he refused to give way to her at a pool table. UK media reports Mustapha has a bruised eye and swollen lip. Mustapha says, “I feel so angry. She smashed my face hard. I could not hit back — she’s a woman.”

- Wino HEADBUTTED a Good Samaritan who helped her hail a cab. Police have reportedly began a probe and sources said Amy will be arrested. If convicted of assault, she could face up to six months’ jail and a $4,000 fine.

Wino more or less confirms she's back to using drugs.

An eyewitness reports that Amy was "off her face, throwing drinks around and turning over tables" at London's Bar Tok. The witness also reveals that Ames screamed, "I am a legend, get these people out. I want to take drugs’.”

Wino was seen kissing a mystery man. Yeah, one that WASN'T her junkie husband, who's still in jail.

That's so awesome. I remember when I was in jail one time for drugs...oh wait...that was never. Good job donkey-faced issue-haver!
