Newest Old Idea a Long Time Coming MAYBE New IPHONE Will Finally Kick Start the Age of Video Phones

Newest Old Idea a Long Time Coming MAYBE New IPHONE Will Finally Kick Start the Age of Video Phones


Videophones,the concept, has been around for a long time..People at the 1965 New York World's Fair saw an example of a videophone on which you could SEE and SPEAK to people at Disneyland.. It seems obvious to me that videophones are a great idea..Think about it. Your Aunt Tilly in Cedar Rapids and your Mom and Dad in Ohio want to see and watch the baby play at home in Chicago. Skype has already proven that many people want video phones but it's still not quite there for ease of use and image quality.



Videophones need to be a no brainer to use. As easy as making a phone call to anyone anywhere. When THAT happens you will see the concept take off like a rocket.. Personally I have always thought that Iphones while having a nice interface are over hyped but MAYBE the new Iphone may open the doors to the Videophone Era IF... The new Iphone has the ability to do videophone calls. BUT apparently you can only make the video calls over WI FI which is still a stumbling block..IF they fix it so that you can make video calls from anywhere to anywhere we may be on the CUSP of the VIDEOPHONE REVOLUTION.

Ticket to Trouble Dizziness Needs Immediate Medical Evaluation in Old and Young People New Study Implicates Heart Disease in More Than Half of Dizzy E

Ticket to Trouble Dizziness Needs Immediate Medical Evaluation in Old and Young People New Study Implicates Heart Disease in More Than Half of Dizzy Elderly


Sometimes people just take an anti-vertigo pill without a deep search for the cause of the dizziness. This turns out to be an even worse idea than it seems. According to a recent study OVER HALF of the elderly people who had DIZZINESS had it caused by HEART PROBLEMS.









The study which appeared in the Annals of Family Medicine, concluded "Contrary to most previous studies, cardiovascular disease was found to be the most common major cause of dizziness in elderly patients in primary care. In one-quarter of all patients an adverse drug effect was considered to be a contributory cause of dizziness, which is much higher than reported in previous studies". A number of heart related problem can make a person feel dizzy such as atrial fibrillation, other irregular heart beats and high or low blood pressure. Of course some other causes can be high or low blood sugar, inner ear problems and fluid loss.



No matter how you parse it, dizziness is NOT something to sneeze at and just taking a medication to cover up the symptom without a complete medical evaluation is a ticket to trouble.
