High Tech, Two Celebs

While society seems to become more woeful each day, it has yet to affect the marvelous medical and technological advances that continue apace. Here’s another, from an article at nypost.com, edited by yours truly: Researchers have invented new bionic eye technology that allows patients to “see” again through special glasses that send electrical signals to the wearer’s brain. It consists of a small camera on a pair of glasses, a brain implant and a processing unit that the patient can wear on the hip. Of the six people involved in the trial, only one has reported an adverse effect, a seizure. Here’s a pic:

This may qualify as the funniest headline of the day. From nypost.com: “Chris Cuomo caught on video flying into rage after man calls him ‘Fredo.’” Also funny is trying to spin it as a slur against Italian-Americans.

My thanks to the Quiet Man, who cleaned out my DVD section, which included the 25th Anniversary Concert of the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame; and to the young man who bought Is It Worth Dying For?: How To Make Stress Work For You — Not Against You by Robert S. Eliot; and to the gentleman who donated nine Danielle Steel paperbacks in excellent condition.
