Links
Links to other sites which I have found useful are offered here, whether related or not to the topics at hand.
Medicine
Medi-Mouse is a site maintained by Dr. Eugene Leduc of Victoria, B.C. It is an excellent one-stop reference for B.C. physicians, and has a particularly good drug reference module with information taken from the Health Canada Drug Database, B.C. Pharmanet and the LexiDrugs reference via the CMA website. It is one of the few easily accessible sources for drug costs.
Medical Informatics
The PDA in Medicine
Meistermed is an elegant collection of medical applications for the Palm Pilot done by the author Andrew Schechtman, MD. Lytemeister - a summary of electrolyte disorders, has been a favourite of mine for some time.
Medical iSilo Depot part of the Meistermed site, is a collection of medical applications for the iSilo text editor and the Palm Pilot done by various authors. This is probably the most complete collection of this format on the web.
Healthy Palm Pilot is a collection of medical applications for the Palm Pilot done in various formats. Some are free and some are shareware or commercial programs. This is quite a comprehensive collection.
Meistermed Hyperlink Tutorial is a tutorial done by Andrew Schechtman, MD. to demonstrate creation of a hyperlinked medical topic in iSilo for the Palm Pilot.
American College of Physicians PDA Site offers both free and commercial material for the PDA. Some of the free programs are bookmarked but not hyperlinked. Navigation is therefore not always easy.
The Arts
Mark Raymond Mason Fine Art Photography is an impressive gallery of photographs, each a unique abstraction of reality, allowing for much contemplation and interpretation. You may also find the elegant web page design familiar, as this site borrowed heavily from it.
Piano
PG Music Home of Band in a Box and Power Tracks Pro Audio sequencer. Their CD on Oscar Peterson and other products are great resouces for learning jazz piano.
Energy Alternatives
UN Intergovernmentat Panel on Climate Change This last report released in Feb. of 2007 reaches concensus for the first time that climate change is the result of human activity. It is past time to focus on energy alternatives.
Drake Landing Solar Community This is a new community in southern Alberta using solar hot water technology and in-ground borehole thermal energy storage for space heating. There is also attention paid to R-2000 standards and efficient water use.
The Outdoors
Trails in the Tumbler Ridge Area is an on-line reference for hiking, skiing, backpacking and mountain biking trails in the Tumbler Ridge area of the Northern Rockies. Many fine photographs.
Web Design
w3 Schools is an on-line reference for learning Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and and scripting languages such as java for web page design. Examples allowing scripting change and viewing of the subsequent result are very helpful.
W3C Markup Validation Service is an on-line free service that checks Web documents in formats like HTML and XHTML for conformance to W3C recommendations and other standards.
