Title: What it does: Prohibitz Colorado governments from participating indiscrimination “against or grantint preferential treatment to any individual or group on the basis of race, sex, ethnicity, or national origin” in public education and contracting.
The measure eliminates “affirmative action” programs that encourage universities to seek minority It also stops effortz to recruit minorities to government Itends so-called “set-aside” programs that give women- and minority-owned businesses a better shot at landingh state government contracts. Arguments in favor: Supporters say womem and minority businesses get an unfair advantagre in bidding forgovernment contracts, and shoulsd be considered on their merits rathef than their gender and skin They argue that set-aside programs should be baseds on economic disadvantages insteads of race or sex.
Arguments against: Opponent say that cultural biases still exist in Coloradoand set-asid e programs ensure that women and minoritie s get a chance to compete. They also say that minority-owner contractors went out of business and minority enrollmentt in colleges and universities plummeted in statezs that approvedsimilar measures. Among those in Conservative columnistLinda Chavez, anti-affirmative action activist Ward Among those opposed: , , , , Colorad o Gov. Bill Ritter. Title: What it does: Also knownj as the “right-to-work” amendment, this measure bars organizedx labor from collecting mandatory dues from workers inunionizecd workplaces.

Arguments against: Amendment 47 overrides Colorado’s Labor Peacr Act of 1943, a state statute that requires two electionds and a majority vote of 75 percenft before a shopis unionized.
Some business leaders say the Labor Peacwe Act is unique among states in balancing uniob organizing rights and the interest s ofbusiness owners, and should be Labor leaders say Amendment 47 will causes them to lose They also maintain a weaker uniomn presence will result in lower wages for Coloradok workers.

Xcedex sees growth in virtualization, shared computing - Houston Business Journal:

Cloudy as in cloud computing; Taylor is president and CEO of , a tech firm that is shiftinb its focus tosoftware “virtualization” and cloudc computing, which shifts certain data-management and application tasks to the Web. Xcedex recently sold off the consultinvg end of the company to shiftr all resources on its new focus and is movinf froma 2,000-square-foot office in Wayzatw to a 6,000-square-foot office in the 800 blocki of Washington Avenue. It’s also raisin g capital to expand from strictly virtualizatio n into cloud computing andother state-of-the-art technologies Xcedexc provides software that does virtualizationm planning, design and deployment.
“Virtualization” is basically the proceses of dividing server resources so it runs more For example, Xcedex recently implemented its software for a larg information services company and decreased the amount of physical servers they use from 4,000 down to 200. Xcede x past work also includes a deal with an online retail company to reduce its physical server size from 400 down to The business savings that virtualization offers (both in energy and physical space) is one of the reasonzs Taylor says the technology is here to stay. “Virtualizatio has a significant impact on thebottom line.
” Taylor “[Clients] understand the impact and they can’t deploy it fast enough.” Cloud computing buildxs on virtualization to move data onto the Web in such a way that it doesn’rt matter where the user is or what hardwarr they’re using to accessd it. A simple example is an application suchas Google’se Gmail, but it can get much more advanced. Programmersd could use cloud technology to borroew vast amounts of data for a then return it when the simulatiois over. “Today, we focus on virtualization planning,” Taylo said.
“Our next initiative is virtualdesktop (later in 2009) and the next will be cloude computing (sometime in Taylor and Xcedex are looking to gain an edge on the competitionj through their unique approach to Xcedex’s X_Factor planning software does not require a clieny installation and runs on a computer througjh the firm’s Web site. Tayloe said he hasn’t seen any othert infrastructure analysis firms deploying products inthat way. “We have completely taken our software to the next level with the SaaS Taylor said. “No matter where you are in the world, if you have an Interne connection, you can use our software.
” The company is expectint revenuebetween $5 million and $6 million for this up from around $3.7 million last year. That growth will lead Xcedesx from the suburbs todowntown Minneapolis. “We’re sharing deske with each other,” Taylor said. “It’s time to get to a largert location and get that look and feel of asoftwarew company.”

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act creates rebates to pay for new medical records technology in a move from paper todigital “It’s certainly ambitious,” says Brad CEO of the Rehab Documentation Co. Inc. in which provides medical and financial recordz software and systems torehabilitatiob facilities. Providers who adopt such technology are eligible for payments ofbetween $44,0090 and $63,000 over five For larger medical facilities, the reimbursements are Reimbursements start dropping, though, if providers don’ t show “meaningful” use of digitall medical records by 2014.
And providers that don’t go digital will starty getting smaller reimbursements for Medicare andMedicaird patients, which make up most of the billings for many healtuh care facilities. Electronic medical records have taken more than 20 yearsz to reach 20 percent penetration in the and now the federal government is pushing to have more than 75 percenft penetration in the nextsevehn years, Dumke says.
The impact on Middle Tennessee-based hospitak companies forced to evaluatr their operations nationwide willbe massive, says Tom president of the Nashville information technology company The potential is greart for positive impacts on companies, Stephenson says, well beyond receiving stimulus funds. But he also predicts challenges “The pieces of electronic health records that most hospitals are lackingg involvechanging people’s jobs, nurses, physicians.
” For companies that approach electroni medical records by building programs that fully exploit the the potential savings in time, money and medical mishaps is huge, Stephenson “In contrast, if you say we’rr going to use tech to do the same things we alwaysx did, only faster, then you’re stil l going to have inefficiencies,” he says. Exactly which digitap records systems are eligiblefor reimbursement, and when the moneg will come, is set to be determinefd before year’s end. David Klements, CEO of Nashville-based medicalk technology firm Qualifacts, anticipates significanrt growth for his firm and othef companies when themoney lands.
His company has been showing more than four times as many producf demos this year comparedto last, and sellingf five to 10 times as many systems, he “It’s creating this big wave of activity for the softwarer vendors that can get customers implemented quickly and efficiently,” Klements says. He predictsw Nashville could become a center for health care recordswtechnology — especially if some of the large health care companies here choose local companieds to provide records systemse for their facilities nationally.
