  4. Oh man. How things stay the same. Here’s an ad for travel to Hawai’i from a 1982 issue of National Geographic. The line that gets me is: “come see Hawaii (sic) through the eyes of the people who know her best: The people of United.”

    THE PEOPLE (“kanaka” in ‘olelo Hawai’i) WHO KNOW HER BEST!

  8. "#Philips failed to report at least 3,700 complaints about its sleep #apnea devices and respirators to the United States #regulator FDA since 2010...The recall caused Philips serious financial troubles. Its stock price has halved, CEO Frans van Houten resigned...Lawyers...are preparing mass claims amounting to billions of euros..." ...this is a fairly exceptional bit of skullduggery, and I suspect Phillips ain't out of the woods yet (and rightfully so).

    True story…

    I had a 50ish patient with new acute #backpain superimposed on, but different from, long-standing chronic back pain. On #history and #exam they had NEW lower extremity neurologic findings. I ordered an #MRI, which was the appropriate next step at the time.

    I was forced to spend two evenings on hold for something like 20-30min for "pre-authorization"… two because they hung up on me the first time. I had to re-type a 20 digit code three times as they redirected me internally… finally spoke to the "physician in authority" and… HE READ MY OWN CHART BACK TO ME!! … then blithely approved the study. <insert swear words here!>

    This is my Exhibit A for #HealthInsurance #malfeasance. (A complete waste of my time and that was the point! Unethical, and should be illegal.) Ironically I had a very conservative approach to imaging. That was probably the first new study I had ordered for back pain in months.

  10. People who think these #etheriumScams will go away soon are mistaken, they also represent the #decoupling of #GDP from the #consumption of #resources and #energy.

    They serve the establishment in more ways than you might think.

    Even their distractive nature is of value to them.

    Building up #scamTokens helps them launderMoney too, and if they might fall in value they can crash #superFunds in tandem, conveniently blaming #cryptocurrencies for their #malfeasance.

    A #scam on the way up— and down.
