Article originally published on LINKtoLEADERS under the Portuguese title “Sem saber ler nem escrever!”

Cancer Bills, organized by Nicholas Avery

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, lifeboat

As most of you know I have cancer called multiple myeloma and have had it for almost a decade now. Unfortunately medical bills are staggering, especially in the US. I am asking to reach a goal of $10,000 to help wipe out if not most of my medical debt and expenses. I have over 1,000 friends on Facebook. If each friend donated $8.00 this would help me not only reach but exceed my goal. Please consider helping:

If anyone needs proof of my diagnosis or medical debt please message me.

I have outlined my journey with cancer several years ago on Lifeboat Foundation’s blog: https://russian.lifeboat.com/blog/2018/09/83169

Humans Can Learn to ‘Echolocate’ in Just 10 Weeks, Experiment Shows

Posted by in categories: education, lifeboat

Echolocation is a skill we usually associate with animals such as bats and whales, but some blind humans also use the echoes of their own sounds to detect obstacles and their outlines. Some use the tapping of a cane or the snapping of their fingers to make the necessary noise, while others use their mouths to make a clicking sound.

Despite how useful this skill can be, very few blind people are currently taught how to do it. Expert echolocators have been trying to spread t… See more.


With enough training, most humans can learn how to echolocate, using their tongue to make clicking sounds and interpreting the echoes that come back, reflected from the surrounding environment.

I disagree with Ross Dawson here… it’s not ultimately a matter of belief or faith, it’s a matter of understanding our existing knowledge about the physiology of sentience, and of furthering the relevant research agendas. Questions of sentience in h… See more.
