  • The Silver Tsunami Of Aging America

    One thing is certain: there is going to be far greater demand for healthcare in the US in the coming years. That's because by 2030, every Baby Boomer will be age 65 or older, which means that 1 out of every 5 U.S. citizens will be of retirement age. According to Business Insider, the average life expectancy in the US was slightly less than 70 years old in 1968 but rose to almost 79 years old in 2016. The population in 1968 was just over 200 million, but reached 323 million by 2016, putting increased pressure on Social Security and public health services. However, bright spots on the scene include increased use of telemedicine, wearable health trackers and monitors, and in-home voice assistants.

  • What's Up With Doctor Strange In The 'Spider-Man: No Way Home' Trailer?

    The first trailer for "Spider-Man: No Way Home" has arrived, and fans finally have an idea of what the highly-anticipated Marvel movie is about. Spider-Man's secret identity is now public knowledge following the events of "Far From Home," and with Peter Parker's life greatly affected by the secret, he went to the one person he could think of powerful enough to reverse his luck. Peter heads to Doctor Strange's house and convinces him to cast a spell that makes everyone in the world forget that he was Spider-Man. According to the trailer, this is what sets into motion the events that will send Peter Parker colliding with the multiverse and clashing with notable villains from other Spider-Man movies this Peter was never a part of. But there's absolutely something suspicious about the premise. Specifically, why on Earth did Doctor Strange cast that spell? Is this a Doctor Strange variant?
