Good Results with Autologous Breast Reconstruction after Failed Implant Reconstruction

Implants are usually the first choice for breast reconstruction after mastectomy. But when implant-based reconstruction fails, autologous reconstruction – using the patient's own tissues – is a safe procedure that improves patient outcomes, reports a study in the February issue of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery®, the official medical journal of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). from ASPS Plastic Surgery Latest News http://bit.ly/2S1zZUY via IFTTT

The Real Extent and Effect The Cryptopia Hack Is Having On Me.

I don’t think about the Cryptopia hack a lot. Partly because I try not to dwell on negative things too long. It took a couple days to realize exactly what could be lost. Although, in the back of my head I always knew this was a possibility. So in many ways, I was already prepared for this. As crypto traders, we know the risks and these are the games we play. Considering the time I’ve been involved in trading, it was bound to happen sooner or later. I missed the Cryptsy debacle by about a week. I knew something was amiss and withdrew all my funds a little over a week before disaster struck. There were signs, and I acted accordingly. With Cryptopia, there really weren’t any signs. Honestly, I was comfortable there. I never had a problem, and I really liked the UX of the exchange. Order history was always there, pages loaded fairly quickly. I was never crazy about the charts, but everything else was perfect. Frankly, it was one of my favorite exchanges. Which leads me to my point. I’m

SteemMonsters Is My Latest Crypto Addiction!

I kept hearing about SteemMonsters and out of curiosity I decided to sign up for it. OMG what a blast. It’s an online card game similar to “Magic The Gathering”. This was the first time I ever played one of these card games and I have to say I’m having a blast. So much to learn. The first week in, I barely know what I’m doing and I’m Bronze Level 1. If you’re into these types of card games and you haven’t tried SteemMonsters yet, you really should check it out. A starter set is only $10.00 and you get enough cards to start playing right away. As you move up in your league you’re also awarded more cards at the end of the season. The game is played on the STEEM blockchain. You can also pay for your starter set with STEEM as well as PayPal and other cryptos. I’ll be blogging about this more as I learn. Here’s a referral link if anyone is interested in learning more. steemmonsters.com… from The Bitcoin Blog http://bit.ly/2sGPpyV via IFTTT

Crypto Clothing Review TCmerch

Image
A couple weeks back @tc_merch on Twitter contacted me and asked me to review some of their clothing and designs. When they said they would send a few samples to check out I was absolutely delighted. The Dood loves sporting cryptocurrency related clothing. It’s a great way to meet other like-minded cryptocurrency folks, and also start the crypto conversation with curious folks wondering what it’s all about. Their shipping was pretty quick and a few days after we talked a really nice sized box arrived at my shop. To my surprise, it was filled with all kinds of t-shirts and a hoodie from tcmerch.io! Everything arrived packaged neatly and professionally. Everything arrived individually wrapped and professionally packed. As soon as I began pulling the shirts from their individually wrapped bags, I could tell they were using quality shirts for their designs. The material of the t-shirts was very soft, with a nice feel to them. I’ve ordered flimsy t-shirts online in the past, and these

Geofencing: A Newfangled Feature in TaxiMobility

Geofencing is a buzzword in the taxi industry in recent days, which has many disruptive qualities that can help taxi businesses in various aspects. The world’s no. 1 taxi dispatch software, TaxiMobility has now been upgraded with the geofencing feature for improved results. What Is Geofencing? Geofencing in the taxi management software is a technology that uses GPS to define a virtual boundary for a geographical area in order to provide a location-based service or set fixed fare for an area with surging demand. TaxiMobility’s Geofencing TaxiMobility has already been enriched with a wide range of features for enhanced performance. The geofencing is another feather in the crown with which the business operator can: define zones whether by selecting the city or by drawing a boundary in the map; set fixed fare for the defined zones (city wise, zone wise, and zone to zone); and get notified when the driver crosses the defined zone. How to Set Fixed Fare Using Geofencing Feature T

Approaching Incarnations of Taxis in 2019

A wide range of innovative concepts has emerged in the ride-hailing industry due to the growing demands of commuters. Congested roads and traffic-prone areas paved way for the evolution of on-demand transits in order to make daily commutes easy. In order to make transportation eco-friendly and more efficient, automakers are indulged in making vehicles connected, electric, and autonomous.
