Stonehead Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 One need look no further than the legal drama surrounding the end to Terri Schiavo's life in Florida last year, or the arguments over Oregon's physician-assisted suicide law now being decided by the U.S. Supreme Court. But those cases, medical ethicists say, can't compare to the situation confronting health care professionals in Louisiana after Hurricane Katrina as the water rose and the electricity went out, and no one came to help for days. Louisiana Attorney General Charles Foti told a legislative committee earlier this month that his office was investigating dozens of deaths to determine whether hospitals or nursing homes abandoned or euthanized patients, or whether mistakes were made in their evacuation. --Experts discuss ethics of ending life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomtom Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Musical breast implants BT Laboratories' analyst Ian Pearson said flexible plastic electronics would sit inside the breast. A signal would be relayed to headphones, while the device would be controlled by Bluetooth using a panel on the wrist. No, no, no. Why control with a panel at the wrist when you've got two knobs right there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
