Subject: Video Conference Software
** Submit to the HEDIR Technology Seminar
**
Hi Folks,
Earlier this year I indicated that there was a software called SKYPE
(Skype.com) that one can download and use for free (between other SKYPE
members) that includes crystal clear audio and video. I've been using it for several months and I'm impressed (and for those who know me I am rarely impressed!).
Over the weekend I have found another software program that is similar to SKYPE but has one additional plus. ooVoo (www.oovoo.com) provides one an ability to have up to six individuals at once on video conference. Whereas SKYPE will allow you to have multiple audio, it will only allow 1 video connection. Oovoo allows you to have up to six.
You may want to check it out. I don't know all of the details on what you can do besides video conference (I assume you can share files) with oovoo.
If anybody does decide to load the software, let me know and we can set up a video conference to check it out.
Have a good week.

Folks,
Are any of you aware of any undergraduate or graduate programs in health education that REQUIRE that students take the CHES exam (note that requiring may not be the same as passing)? If not, what would be your thoughts?

Hi HEDIR-ites,
I recall a recent conversation we had about a possible day to =20
celebrate health and wellness. Hence, I thought some of you might be =20
interested in this (see below).
I must admit that I had no idea Sept. 29 was the "Worldwide Day of =20
Play"! How cool!
Peace and good health,
Suzanne

Don't know how many of you caught this--
The three-year project, called The Science Inside Alcohol, will incorporate
recent advances in neuroscience that have been shedding new light on how
alcohol affects the body. It is funded by the National Institute on Alcohol
Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) with an initial grant of $253,000 and an
anticipated total of $831,000.
