The labor force is emerging from the Covid pandemic shrunk by several factors. "Long Covid" is interfering with mitochondrial function, cognitive function, and autonomic nervous systems to a degree disabling an estimated 2-4 million newly handicapped peopl[...]

Yes but they had to have Yankee greenbacks and a whole bunch of Yankee research behind them. Ain't easy.[...]

I vaguely recall that somewhere a trial is being done on life extending effects of metformin.[...]

It bothers me that his hair always looks kind of greasy. Too long, and greasy. Just doesn't inspire confidence.[...]

This pitch for Agora's $79 "Lifetime Income Report" -- presumably foreplay for later and greater spending -- strikes me as the meanest and most dangerous phony-baloney to turn up in a while.. What makes it especially offensive is the population it a[...]

While Monsanto's legal tactics on GMOs are revolting, while its soybean GMO allows use of herbicides that taint our foods, and while its corn GMO generates pesticides internally that may end up in your tummy or that of your pigs , the company's stock exhi[...]

I have read that a lot of the immunotherapies have had fairly unpleasant side effects. A bit over 40% I believe. Especially touching off auto-immune diseases. Though between rheumatoid arthritis and death R.A. has to look pretty good.[...]

I just saw the same STM pitch and got the same $47 offer -- 22 November, 2017. About the price of a modest dinner in Manhattan.[...]

Tomorrow is our annual Indian Displacement Day. We celebrate when your nutty puritan Protestants came over and mowed down those Indians who did not first die from exposure to small pox and measles. Nasty guerrilla warfare with a lot of scalping and that so[...]

Doesn't Bosch make all those European dishwashers and washing machines that take 2 1?2 hours to clean anything because they are ever so eco-friendly?[...]

By the way, y'all, my PA tells me that CVS has decided they now have the right not to sell you pain medicine. They have declared a maximum of, I think, 90 morphine equivalent per day -- that would be 3 of 10-325 oxycodone, not the 4 tablets one reader ment[...]

jbnaples, the prednisone will reduce your immune function on top of whatever reduction your transplant anti-rejection medicine is doing. This is a very serious matter. 10-325 impacts the immune system negatively, but nothing like steroids. Also prednisone [...]

Perhaps "backoffice" meant that Oxycodone is prohibitive for addicts to buy on the black market. That would match what I read. For addicts and pain patients alike heroin can be a lot cheaper when you factor in the cost of doctors to prescribe it each and e[...]

We're supposed to commit suicide; that's what the politicians and regulators are aiming for in drastically cutting doses and making people jump through hoops for prescriptions. In the past two months someone -- presumably with access to the state computer [...]

My dear Javi, what is truly important is that Dr. Thomas Frieden's last minute launch of a campaign agains pain patients begun with recommendations from a secret panel stuffed with rehab interests, accomplished his goal of finding a glorious new job. Previ[...]

"...First Mining is a better investment today than it was a month ago when Stansberry teased it, despite the fact....." Despite??? I know you know better Travis. Because, old chap, because!!! Unless something has changed that we ha[...]

Dr. KSS' articles are so well written and so interesting he could sub for Groopman in the New Yorker. The point is learning for its own sake, which will serve you well in the long run. Looking at one possible trade out of thousands of days in life for unde[...]

The first author is listed as being a prof. of marketing at U. Penn; his interest is primarily "neuroscience" i.e. linking biology to financial behavior. I don't think the piece is meant to dump on gentlemen -- more to discern behavior on trading desks whi[...]

The nasty thing about Coinbase is that they just closed my account for no reason and trapped $250 in it. The upfront cost -- in time or money -- to get a wallet to transfer that into, assuming Coinbase is on the up and up about saying I can get the money o[...]

All is not quite so rosy in the world of cryptocurrency buying, holding, spending and selling. Coinbase is being enthusiastically investigated by FInCEN.gov in its quest to locate money launderers, terrorists and tax cheats. This has an unfortunate side ef[...]
