Blockchain + Gold
ConclusionI am not endorsing or recommending investment in any of these projects. Caveat emptor. But I think the last three listed warrant our attention as attempts, in the spirit of E-gold, to provide modern gold-based payment systems with online access. All three explicitly promisenot to hold fractional reserves, and say that you can track the volume of cryptoasset on their ledger to see that it matches the number of gold grams or ounces held in their vaults. But if one of them becomes popular as a one-hundred-percent-reserved   goldpayment system, perhaps a subsequent innovator will offer zero storage fees and interest...

We Simply Won ’ t Go To Mars Without Digital Health
“It’s 2017, we should have a lunar base by now,” noted Elon Musk when he revealed his grandiose plans about going to Mars in at least five years. “What the hell is going on?”, he asked clearly not being satisfied with the current state of astronautics. However, I say, we should not only concentrate on the development of space technologies but devote more focus to advancing technologies to keep people well and alive on the Red Planet. Digital health opens amazing horizons there. That’s what I detailed in my paper in New Space. We’ll colonize Mars There are plans for human missions to Mars by the United ...

Cynical Hawks Exploit North Korea Crisis to Torpedo Iran Agreement
Donald Trump ’sspeech to the UN General Assembly underscored his intention to adopt highly confrontational policies toward both North Korea and Iran.  He threatened to “totally destroy” North Korea in the event of war and re-emphasized Washington’s long-standing determination to compel Pyongyang to renounce its nuclear and ballistic missile programs. The president scorned Iran as “an economically depleted rogue state” and described the current multilateral nuclear agreement with Tehran as “an embarrassment” to the United States. If Trump is not merely engaging in bombast, Washington appears to be ginning-u...

Fight Aging! Newsletter, September 11th 2017
This study developed the first procedure for the removal of epithelium from the lung airway with the full preservation of vascular epithelium, which could be applied in vivo to treat diseases of lung epithelium. Whole lung scaffolds with an intact vascular network may also allow for recellularization using patient-specific cells and bioengineering of chimeric lungs for transplantation. In addition to the clinical potential, lung scaffolds lacking an intact epithelial layer but with functional vascular and interstitial compartments may also serve as a valuable physiological model for investigating (i) lung development, (ii)...

Excuses, Excuses, Excuses...Must Be The Russians ' Fault, But The AI STILL Isn ' t Taking Your Job
Forgive me, loyal readers (both of you), for I have sinned. My last post was in May, months ago, and I ' ve not posted since. This is unacceptable, and I humbly accept my penance of getting my writing back on track.But there are reasons for my sloth. No, the Nuance Ransomware foolishness is not at fault. Idon ' t use Nuance, and Ido apply security patches the moment they are released. Unlike Nuance. (I guess if you can convince the healthcare world that Speech Recognition actuallyworks, you must feel invincible.) As you know, I ' m going on another Rad-Aid trip to Tanzania in a few weeks. My task there is to aid the growth...

Healthcare ’ s Hundred Years ’ War
By JOHN IRVINE Is Trumpcare Dead? Was it ever really alive? Senators Mike Lee and Jerry Moran said yesterday that they would not vote for the Better Care Reconciliation Act, effectively killing the legislation.  As anybody who has been following this story would have predicted, President Trump reacted publicly on Twitter on Tuesday morning, vowing to let the ACA marketplace collapse and then rewrite the plan later. Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell attempted a quick punt this morning, calling for an immediate Senate vote on the House bill, a trick card that if it worked, would give Republicans two years to work thin...

Putin’s Speech and the Russian–Western Impasse
Emma Ashford Today at the Kremlin, Russian President Vladimir Putin gave his annual address to the Federal Assembly. The speech made the news for its antagonistic tone and, in particular, for Putin’s comparison of Crimea with Jerusalem. But for all the hype surrounding the speech, it said little new, emphasizing instead the impasse that Russia and the West find themselves locked in. Putin’s message was clear: Russia’s foreign policy is not changing. The foreign policy narratives pervading the speech were strongly familiar, reiterating the points made by Russian leaders and state-owned television throughout the last ...

Patient Moments: Why Audiology Is a Top-Five Profession
By Mary Rapaport ReSound The joy of hearing is all about small moments—the sound of bicycle bells on a spring day, an intimate whisper in a crowded restaurant, a granddaughter’s first words.

Hearing is so fundamental that professionals who restore it help their patients start brand new lives.    It is in these moments that audiologists remember why they chose hearing healthcare. It is not surprising that CareerCast recently rated audiology as a top five profession.   ReSound has launched th...
