    I’m sobbing how precious. I’m sad that some disabled people feel as though they are not worthy or “whole” without their limbs or abilities, it’s sad society has given them that idea, but it’s beautiful to see the empowerment and independence these brave people are receiving through this research. Both the scientists and patients hard work will help so many disabled people in the future! Great story.

    END OF THE DOLLAR? Or what awaits those at the bottom of the banking pyramids. This is an analytical article from Asian and Arab analytical services. At the state level, analysts from different countries recommend getting rid of assets in dollars, but what? And why? April 2023 will decide the fate of the dollar and banks in the US, you have a maximum week left. The dollar-based banking system is starting to crumble, with major US banks failing this month, and a number of banks in Europe, as well as dozens of smaller banks in the US, were clearly in trouble. Since the US dollar is not backed by anything (not backed by a gold guarantor), it is not protected by anything other than verbal guarantees from the US government and the Federal Reserve System. 1) And what does it lead to? - most US banks are a pyramid that rests on the money of depositors, in the event of a bank failure, only those who insure deposits will receive money (and it’s not a fact if the government pays this money, but this is also a problem) and those who withdraw first until the cash runs out or they will give the go-ahead to transfer to another bank (but there is a percentage for the transfer) Read what a financial pyramid is and the collapse of a financial pyramid. 2) Guaranteeing the issuance of deposits and keeping the state of banks from bankruptcy - turning on the printing press (injecting cash) If the state asks the federal reserve system to turn on the press to print more billions to guarantee the return of deposits and maintain the stability of the bank, then the public debt of US residents will increase or be inflation of the dollar, which means a decrease in the purchasing power for this money, for example, those goods that cost $ 100 will cost 200 or even 1000. 3) Why world banks are collapsing along with US banks - because they are tied to the dollar, this is the euro, this is the British pound, the Canadian dollar, the Australian dollar. They are all tied to the value of dollars, and that is, if the US financial system collapses, then these countries are pulled along. What to do? - 1) withdraw money first until deposits are frozen, because in this financial pyramid the amount of money is limited and not enough for everyone, because deposits are used and gradually spent by banks, and when the constant influx of new money ends, there will be a shortage of funds in the bank. The top of the bank (the pyramids will never wait and take risks, they will be the first to take their money from the bank as soon as they realize that the bank is collapsing), those who have insured their money with the state can give the money or can not compensate for the full amount of the connection with various excuses. What is the result? - those who managed to stay with the money, those who did not have time to withdraw money will lose their deposits (as Biden said - deposits are always risks, sometimes you earn on them, sometimes you lose) and the bank will become bankrupt. -2) wait for it to print money and pour billions into the bank. Yes, it is possible, but not certain. What is the result? - an increase in the public debt of citizens and inflation of the dollar is possible (after all, printing billions of unsecured pieces of paper will lead to a cheaper dollar, you can see for yourself that the purchasing power of a certain amount decreases every time a new batch of dollars is printed). - but there is a high probability that you will not wait and then you will lose deposits. -3) to do nothing and not to worry - happiness is not in money (well, you will lose your deposits, but inflation will be a little later) Well, what can I say - not long left, some analysts say - that in the first days of April a serious recession will begin in the US financial system. Some believe that from mid-April. But everyone agrees that it is necessary to get rid of the dollar, since soon its value will be cheaper than the paper on which it is printed. It is better to buy precious metals or appliances, electronics and real estate. Popcorn bought and looking forward to))!!

    The progress that science is making is amazing. Of course, as with everything, the progress of science has its good and bad sides - I mean the negative effects of, for example, artificial intelligence, but the good effects, in my opinion, outweigh the bad ones. It is wonderful to see paralyzed people smiling and hopeful again. This hope is only possible thanks to the development of science and knowledge, used with the best of intentions, in order to help those most in need. Of course, any new, advanced technology is expensive to start with, but the price always goes down over time. Anyway, doctors and scientists who are constantly working to improve the lives of ordinary people and the world, in general, should be stars in the headlines and rewarded much better than some vain, fake, foolish celebrities.

The term _touching_ may well be universal across all human cultures, even surpassing the metaphor that up is more and down is less; or at least, I can't think of why a culture would not "embrace" (sorry, over played it) the metaphor of "touching".
