FBI to Open New York Office for Computer Crime
The FBI will open an office in New York to investigate computer crime, adding to a San Francisco site opened last month and a Washington office established in 1993. Each squad will have 14 to 15 staff, focusing on illegal access and data changes. The agency cites rising network wiring and 100 active U.S. cases, with a recent CSIs survey showing 20 percent of large organizations facing Internet security problems and about 66 million dollars in reported losses.

Study links cardiologists care to lower death risk after heart attack
A Duke Yale study of 220000 Medicare claims found heart attack patients treated directly by cardiologists had a 15 percent lower risk of dying within a year than those managed by general practitioners. The work, presented at the American Heart Association meeting, argues for specialized care pathways for elderly patients and notes gaps in aspirin use and ACE inhibitor prescription at discharge.
