LAS VEGAS MEDICAL TOURISM - Meet Dr. Reefer, Dr. Life and the Lice Doctors...

GAMBLING YOUR BONES - LAS VEGAS HEALTHCARE

Las Vegas now promotes special clinics for medical tourists - spa's, wellness centers and of course - casinos. 

Las Vegas may be about 20 years behind the rest of the world regarding medical tourism but the town has other unique medical pros it can hype such as the Lice Doctors and Dr. Life. And don't miss Doctor Reefer! He will make your stay awesome. 




 
 
Organizations have partnered to promote Las Vegas as a destination for medical and wellness tourism. Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA), the Las Vegas Global Economic Alliance, and others developed a strategic plan for medical tourism.

While gambling, dining and shopping are popular reasons for visiting Las Vegas, several organizations have partnered to bolster the city's reputation as a destination for medical and wellness tourism.

 And many are questioning how a town with reputation for over-the-top indulgence such as endless buffets, free drinks, 24/7 gambling, hookers and con artists can reinvent itself again. In the early days of the Sahara it was to be a gambling and entertainment mecca then Circus Circus, Treasure Island and others transformed it into a family vacation destination. And now Medical Tourism? Dr. Reefer must be blowing smoke up some fella's skirt at LVCVA.  -ed

MEXICO CITY'S BIZARRE NARCO MUSEUM - The Daily Beast


NARCO CULTURE

Mexico City's Secret Narco Museum

Deep inside Mexican army headquarters sits a crazy collection of bling and weapons nabbed from drug traffickers—and religious iconography praising the Messiahs of the drug wars.

Hidden in the smog-ridden north of Mexico City, inside the headquarters of the Ministry of National Defense—or Mexican army HQ—sits one of the most fascinating museums on the planet.

The army humbly calls it the Museo de Enervantes, which can be roughly translated as the Museum of Stupefacients. But this boring technical title underplays the incredible collection of artifacts on display, the highlights of what Mexican soldiers have nabbed from drug traffickers.

Some seized narcotics themselves are in the cabinets, but these are the least interesting items. A lot of people already know what marijuana, crystal meth, and heroin look like (although the black cocaine on show is a novelty). The drug lab machinery is more enthralling, including sprawling shiny contraptions to cook meth on an industrial scale. Pieces from trap cars, the vehicles used to smuggle drugs over the border in gas tanks, tires, and false seats, also illustrate the ingenuity of narco engineers.

More frightening is the heavy weapons room of captured cartel firepower; you see that narco thugs don’t only use belt-driven machine guns and grenades, they even possess shoulder-held rocket launchers, such as the RPG-29, or “Vampire,” which can take out tanks.

But the museum’s main attraction is undoubtedly a room under the title narco cultura. The narco culture cabinets display the ostentatious bling that drug lords buy with their billions of bloodstained bucks. Some pieces are worth high five digits in the stones and metal alone.

FIND THE BEST TIJUANA DENTIST, FIND REVIEWS OF CERTIFIED DENTISTS IN MEXICO By Board Certified Mexico Dentists Association

Everyone knows you can get affordable dentistry in Tijuana - But can you get quality too?

The lure of high-paying foreign patients is attractive to many non-certified dentists in Tijuana who offer super low prices on dental implants and makeovers they are not properly trained or certified for. But it's not just TJ, it occurs all over Mexico and in developing nations everywhere. Here's what to watch for if you want the best dentistry in Tijuana or in any dental tourism destination place for that matter.




Tijuana's upscale Zona Rio has fine restaurants, museums, galleries, clubs, first-class hotels, malls, casinos and some of the best board certified dentists in Tijuana. Over 40 million people cross the border each year. And tens of thousands of them are dental patients. There's also a lot of dentist pretenders.



There are over 2000 dental clinics in Tijuana and all want dental tourism patients. 

If you are like most Americans who cross the border searching for a good Tijuana dentist you want quality and affordability. The big question always in everyone's mind is: How do you sort out the pretenders from the fully good dentists in Tijuana who are certified for crowns, veneers, dental implants, oral surgery and orthodontics?

Mexico and Asian Countries Have the Best Healthcare in the World for Locals and Medical Tourists





FROM: INTERNATIONAL LIVING.COM

Medical and dental healthcare in some Latin American and Asian Countries are considered basic human rights and are often available at little cost to locals and ex-pat residents alike.

NEW YORK - Moira Sauvane works as a cancer researcher at Columbia University in New York City. Javier Garcia, an Argentinian-American and a third-year psychiatric resident, and Moira Sauvane, an Argentinian and a post doctoral cancer researcher, are among the best tango dancing couples in the world.

For the last three years they danced the tango almost every evening, three to four hours a night, somewhere in New York City where they now live. Their tango is unique, in that they come together in a passionate dance dialogue where they exchange lead, in a constant form of improvisation. Their relationship is also unique. Moira is married to another man.

EL CHAPO & KATE Del CASTILLO ROMANTIC LOVE TEXTS - and Chapo Guzman didn't even know who Sean Penn was!


“I Will Take Care of You More Than I Do My Own Eyes”:

El Chapo’s Texts to Kate del Castillo



By Juliana Jiménez Jaramillo


The Mexican publication Milenio had a great scoop today: They got their hands on text messages exchanged between recently reimprisoned drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman and Kate del Castillo, the Mexican actress who brokered his meeting with Sean Penn. That meeting and interview, published in Rolling Stone, led to El Chapo’s arrest Friday.


According to Milenio, the text messages were sent over a series of encrypted BlackBerry devices. Throughout, El Chapo strikes an affectionate, at times romantic, tone with del Castillo, who reciprocates. How much of what either of them text is genuine romantic sentiment, we’ll never know.

What we do know is that when Mexican marines raided El Chapo's hideout they found the entire collection of del Castillo’s narconovela TV series, La Reina del Sur, in which she plays a drug lord who drinks, smokes, curses, and doesn’t hesitate to kill or torture whoever gets in her way.

The Mexican government confirmed for Telemundo that the texts are legitimate.

"The laws of conscience, which we pretend to be derived from nature, proceed from custom." —Montaigne

It's September 28th, 2015. My head is swimming, labeling TracPhones (burners), one per contact, one per day, destroy, burn, buy, balancing levels of encryption, mirroring through Blackphones, anonymous e-mail addresses, unsent messages accessed in draft form. It's a clandestine horror show for the single most technologically illiterate man left standing. At 55 years old, I've never learned to use a laptop. 

Do they still make laptops? No fucking idea! It's 4:00 in the afternoon. Another gorgeous fall day in New York City. The streets are abuzz with the lights and sirens of diplomatic movement, heads of state, U.N. officials, Secret Service details, the NYPD. It's the week of the U.N. General Assembly. Pope Francis blazed a trail and left town two days before. I'm sitting in my room at the St. Regis Hotel with my colleague and brother in arms, Espinoza.

Sean Penn's Secret Jungle Encounter with El Chapo Guzmaz - NY TIMES


NY TIMES 

Joaquín Guzmán Loera, the Mexican drug lord known as El Chapo, started out in business not long after turning 6, selling oranges and soft drinks. By 15, he said in an interview conducted in a jungle clearing by the actor and director Sean Penn for Rolling Stone magazine, he had begun to grow marijuana and poppies because there was no other way for his impoverished family to survive.

Now, unapologetically, he said: “I supply more heroin, methamphetamine, cocaine and marijuana than anybody else in the world. I have a fleet of submarines, airplanes, trucks and boats.”

Guzman, the infamous boss of the Sinaloa drug cartel, was arrested in northwest Mexico on Friday morning, and sent back to the prison he broke out of in July through a mile-long tunnel that led straight into his cell.
A rocket launcher, two armored vehicles and other weapons were seized in the operation, officials said. Video images showed Guzman, head covered by a white towel, being trundled onto a small airplane and transported to Mexico City.

WHY MEXICAN DENTISTS LOVE OBAMA CARE - By David de Los Angeles

Mexican Dentists Are Dancing In The Streets Over Obama Health Care.

By David de Los Angeles, Cabo Mexico writer
Updated Jan. 2, 2016




Are you desperate for a root canal but waiting for Obama Care? Don't hold your breath because the new plan does not  make dental care any more affordable. And the press has been silent about this.

Here's the reality: It's business as usual for America's dentists and a root canal will still cost the price of a plane ticket to London.



Here's what you get with the new Obama 'No' Dental Care plan:

Millions of dollars in oral hygiene education, fluoridation and federal subsidies for dental schools. So what! Millions of uninsured AND insured Americans will still be unable to afford expensive dental treatments such as root canals, crowns, veneers, implants, cosmetic dental makeovers etc.

The Year in Mexico:- The Drug War, A Jailbreak, a Chocolate Cake, and a Washed-Up Strategy - From VICE NEWS














By Nathaniel Janowitz for Vice News
The moment a short and stocky figure disappeared through a hole in his prison cell shower and into a mile-long tunnel that took him to freedom this past July, 2015 instantly became an iconic year in Mexico's war on its drug cartels — and an embarrassing one for the government.
