I was perusing one of my favorite magazines, (The Week), last night, and I saw an article about Canada recently unveiling a new ambulance that uses a hydraulic lift for loading obese patients...imagine that!

I also happened to see an article about Aubrey de Grey, (an interesting man I had a good conversation with at the Alcor conference), in the most recent issue of the AARP magazine. (Unfortunately, there was no link to the article on AARP's site.)
