Ouch. Looks like I need surgery.

Ouch. Looks like I need surgery. 04/09/2004 04:03 PM

This morning I had separate visits with a physiatrist and a neorosurgeon, and both are recommending that I undergo surgery as soon as possible. Apparently, my cervi cal disk herniation is worse than I thought, and the pinched nerve is causing muscle atrophy and weakness in my arm. Left unchecked, it could result in permanent damage.

I'm still researching my options, but I'm fairly certain that surgery is in my future, possibly as early as next week. Man, it's hard to believe that a few weeks ago I was enjoying running 8-10 miles at a time, and now I'm flat on my back looking at surgery.

Idea of implanting ID tags raises Orwellian fears There’s not a lot of middle ground on the subject of implanting electronic identification chips in humans. Advocates of technologies like radio frequency identification tags say their potentially life-saving benefits far outweigh any Orwellian concerns about privacy. RFID tags sewn into clothing or even embedded under people’s skin could curb identity theft, help identify disaster victims and improve medical care, they say. Critics, however, say such technologies…

Surgery April 12

Surgery April 12 04/10/2004 12:50 PM

On April 12 I'm scheduled for anterior cervical decompression and fusion. As nervous as I am about the surgery, I'm actually looking forward to it. I've been in pain for close to two months now, and recently it has become almost unbearable, so I'm glad relief is coming soon. Although I've felt worse pain before (for example, I once had stitches in my head without anesthesia, which kinda' stung), this is the first (and hopefully last) time I've experienced chronic pain, and it really consumes your life.

It will be a few weeks before I'll fully return to work, but I should be able to handle light typing within a few days. In the meantime, I plan to recover by eating several buckets of ice cream and finally watching every DVD I've ordered from Amazon.com but never had time to watch :)

Lizard brain surgery

Lizard brain surgery 11/18/2003 09:16 AM

This isn't just a Windows phenomenon, of course. Every major software system has, at its core, what Dave Winer likes to call a lizard brain. The roots of Linux reach down through many layers to its lizard brain. Mac OS X archeologists can explore not only that same deep history but also a parallel 15-year NextStep legacy. Every software architect longs for a chance to reorganize -- or as they like to say, "refactor" -- to a simpler and stronger foundation for new layered abstractions. Few organizations have the resources to maintain and evolve a working system while mercilessly refactoring to produce its successor. Microsoft is among the lucky few. We'll see, in a couple of years, how well Longhorn has exploited that rare opportunity. [Full story at InfoWorld.com]

The original title of this column was "Lizard brain surgery." It was problematic because of the Mozilla echo, but I doubt that's why the editors changed it. More likely they thought it too offbeat for the print publication. ...

AP - Former President Bill Clinton's heart bypass, expected Monday, likely will be an ordinary replumbing of his ailing heart, not some new whiz-bang robotic or "keyhole" surgery, leading surgeons say.

Clinton has been hospitalized since Friday after suffering chest pains and shortness of breath.

AP - After the tummy tuck, the forehead tightener, the nose job and the jowl trim, something still might be giving away your age: your voice. For patients who think their trembly, raspy or wispy words don't match their newly firm face and figure, there's a procedure that claims to make them sound younger too: the voice lift.

Rotator cuff surgery

Rotator cuff surgery 06/12/2004 09:54 PM
This surgical video is not for the faint of heart, but it is fascinating to watch that little, whirling blade flense away all that frayed tendon and bone. As the possessor of some remarkably cranky back bits, this video compells me -- it would be so boss to just have someone jam some fiber optics and a Dremel tool into my shoulder and just grind off all the troublesome tissue.

About 9 years ago my dad was needing some relief from persistent shoulder pain. After the fun and joys of X-rays and MRI's he elected to have surgery to correct a bone spur that had literally torn the innards of his rotator cuff apart.

Belgian developer eX-cinder has announced the release of Plasticom 1.0, which was originally available as a Beta release, as MacCe ntral reported in January. The software allows a plastic surgeon to import digital images of a patient and manipulate them with warp curves that are placed on the pictures and reshaped. Thanks to Plasticom's use of the Morph Age 2.0 engine, the results are rendered in real-time, and the software can export the final version to a TIFF, PNG or JPEG file. The initial images can be imported from TIFF, PDF, GIF, JPEG and other formats. Plasticom 1.0 requires Mac OS X v10.3 and sells for US$150, with site licenses available for $600.
