Doctors in Israel just pulled off something that addiction specialists have been chasing for decades — and it didn’t require a single scalpel.
In a jaw-dropping medical first, physicians at Rambam Health Care Campus in Haifa used focused sound wave technology to essentially switch off a patient’s opioid addiction. In less time than it takes to watch a sitcom, a man who had been swallowing roughly 130 pills a day walked away craving zero.
The patient, identified only as H., is a family man in his forties who originally hurt his neck years ago. Doctors prescribed opioids for the pain. The pain eventually faded — but the addiction didn’t. He was trapped, needing the drug just to feel normal and function day-to-day.
That’s when Rambam’s team stepped in with technology developed by Israeli firm Insightec. Using MRI-guided ultrasound waves, physicians targeted the nucleus accumbens — the brain’s pleasure and reward hub — and modulated its electrical activity without cutting, burning, or destroying a single cell. No surgery. No anesthesia. No recovery room.
Within a week, H. tested completely clean. His self-reported craving level: zero out of ten. But the surprises didn’t stop there. The man who used to smoke three packs of cigarettes daily nearly quit cold turkey. His desire for alcohol vanished too. The treatment essentially hit the reset button on his entire reward system.
But you believe all anonymous claims against Trump and other conservatives!

This is outrageous! Pete Buttigieg and his family were targeted by an anonymous caller to CPS, resulting in his not being permitted to be alone with his children overnight. The caller said that a woman he knows told him that she had met Buttigieg at an event in Alabama, and that he told her he had committed "unspeakable crimes."
It isn't just the fact that some crazy idiot called in a false allegation -- although that is bad enough. It's that the police and CPS responded to a hearsay allegation by a THIRD PARTY! And even the third party didn't claim to have witnessed anything, but only claimed that Pete Buttigieg had admitted to her that he had engaged in "unspeakable acts." That shouldn't be enough to get police to respond. At a minimum, an allegation like that should only be responded to when the original person making it calls in the complaint. And that person should have more knowledge about a situation than just what she claims an alleged perpetrator told her!




I have been furious for several days after hearing about the false allegations against Pete Buttigieg . . .So how do you know they are false?
As I understand the details of the case, some guy anonymously called either CPS or police, and claimed that some woman he knows told him that she had met Pete Buttigieg as some event in Alabama, and that Buttigieg confessed to her that he had committed "unspeakable crimes" against his children, which led to CPS separating him from his family overnight, while they looked into the allegations.
