Scientists at the University of Michigan have developed a new knife that uses high-amplitude sound waves, instead of a knife blade, to cut tissue. The new sound-based knife, which can focus sound waves to finer points than every before, is magnitudes more accurate than previous technologies. It can cut an area of tissue, using pressure…
DARPA funded researchers have developed a new type of expandable foam that can stop internal bleeding long enough to get the soldier off the battlefield and into surgery. The foam chemical is injected into the chest as two separate chemicals. When the chemicals come into contact with each other, they expand, molding itself around internal…
Researchers have developed tiny, gas-filled microparticles that can be injected directly into the blood system to quickly oxygenate blood providing vital oxygen to the patient for up to 30 minutes per injection. The microparticles are made from a single layer of fatty molecules (lipids) that encapsulate a tiny pocket of oxygen gas (about 3-4 times…
News that personal medical devices such as insulin pumps, pacemakers, and other wearable or implanted devices, could be hacked sent shockwaves through the medical community but researchers from Purdue and Princeton were quick to react. They have developed a signal-jamming personal firewall to protect medical devices, such as insulin pumps and pacemakers, from being hacked.
Scientists at the University of Pittsburgh’s Safar Center for Resuscitation Research have made good their name. Researchers took 24 dogs and stopped their hearts and waited until there was no brain activity. They then drained the dogs’ blood and replaced it with a chilled saline solution (zombie juice). Then with one foot outside the door,…
A man lay sprawled across three entire seats in the crowded movie theater. When the usher came by and noticed this, he whispered to the man, “I’m sorry, sir, but you’re only allowed to occupy one seat.” The man groaned but didn’t budge an inch.
A collection of Dr. Kevorkian jokes. God rest his soul… Dr. Kevorkian. We called him a ‘suicide doctor’? That’s like calling a fireman a ‘pyromaniac fireman.’
We’ve all heard this before. Some medical establishments charge a fee if you miss or cancel an appointment. In this case, the patient received a letter informing them that they had an upcoming appointment and would be charged $50 if they did not show up. Seeing that the patient never made the appointment in the…
Two little kids are in a hospital, lying on stretchers next to each other, outside the operating room. The first kid leans over and asks, “What are you in here for?” The second kid says, “I’m in here to get my tonsils out and I’m a little nervous.”
First Boy: Dammit, I forgot to take my medicine this morning. Second Boy: Is is for your face?

Books from Geek Slop Publishing
Living Truth Bible Study Guides
Despite its beautiful prose, you can’t just read Revelation; it requires diligent study. However, ineffective study techniques can lead to misunderstandings. Rather than imposing strict interpretations on the described events, use the concepts we present as a framework for understanding its intricate code. The Book of Revelation indeed provides more than just a foretelling of the tumultuous end of days. It reassures Christians that divine justice will ultimately triumph over evil and promises Jesus' eventual return as the rightful king of the world.
Chronicles of Enigma
While science and reason often seek to illuminate the unknown, there remains a certain allure in the unexplained—a realm where imagination and reality blur, creating a tapestry rich with wonder and possibility. Stories from the Chronicles of Enigma series endure not just as relics of the past, but as gateways to exploring the depths of our curiosity and the infinite potential of our world. Let us be the light that guides you through the darkness.
