Newly released Justice Department files show Jeffrey Epstein received extraordinary white-glove treatment from Mount Sinai, turning one of New York's most prestigious medical systems into yet another elite institution where his money, access, and relationships appeared to open doors that ordinary people would never get near. The records describe Epstein arranging medical care not only for himself, but for women and associates in his orbit, including referrals, appointments, house calls, and procedures coordinated through well-connected doctors. One of the key figures was Dr. Eva Andersson-Dubin, Epstein's former girlfriend and a major Mount Sinai figure tied to the Dubin Breast Center, whose communications with Epstein showed how deeply he remained connected to the institution years after his 2008 conviction. The files also point to plastic surgeon Dr. Jess Ting, who allegedly provided treatment outside normal hospital settings, including a reported incident where a woman injured on Epstein's island was stitched up at Epstein's Manhattan home.The larger issue is not simply that Epstein knew doctors or donated money; it is that the documents suggest he was able to bend elite medical access around himself like everything else in his life. Mount Sinai has condemned Epstein and said it is reviewing its past ties to him, while doctors named in the files have denied knowing about his criminal conduct. But the paper trail is still ugly: Epstein donated hundreds of thousands of dollars, sought special access, moved women through medical channels, and remained close enough to influential professionals that even after becoming a registered sex offender, he could still operate with the comfort of a man who believed institutions would accommodate him. The Mount Sinai material fits the broader Epstein pattern perfectly — money, prestige, favors, and proximity creating an ecosystem where powerful people treated a predator less like a liability and more like a client worth keeping happy.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prestigious hospital gave Epstein 24/7 access, house calls and other favors: report - Raw Story

This episode is part of our special series on the India AI Impact Summit, examining the conversations, decisions, and debates that are shaping global AI governance. Raymond draws a distinction early in the conversation that shapes everything that follows: training and inference are not the same thing, and conflating them is leading a lot of countries to make expensive mistakes. Training, he says, is like building the engine. Inference is running the transport system every single day. Most countries do not need to build the engine. What they need is airports, roads, and reliable infrastructure that gets the technology into the hands of people. The global assumption that frontier model training is the only legitimate AI pathway is, in his view, one of the more consequential misreads of the moment. On the ground realities of building in Africa, Raymond is specific about where the bottlenecks actually are. It is not ambition. It is power reliability, cost of connectivity, access to capital, and the kind of financing frameworks that have not yet caught up with what AI infrastructure actually requires. He points to genuinely interesting anomalies, such as Ethiopia's extremely low cost of power sitting alongside very limited terrestrial fiber diversity, as a reminder that building in the Global South is not about replicating Silicon Valley at a discount. It is about finding combinations of constraints that can actually be made to work, and optimising for reliability, cost efficiency, and practical impact rather than scale and prestige. His advice to governments is to start with problems, not hardware. Prestigious projects with no clear use case, over-regulation before a single GPU cluster exists, and attempts to rebuild sovereign versions of large compute clusters are all, in his view, things to ignore. What countries should actually invest in is reliable and clean power, public interest compute access, data governance frameworks, sector specific pilots in health, agriculture, and education, and talent development that works by getting the technology into the hands of people rather than running structured boot camps. For Raymond, the success metric for Africa in five years should not be the size of anyone's model. It should be whether AI has meaningfully improved economic productivity and public service delivery across the continent.Episode Contributors Nidhi Singh is an associate fellow at Carnegie India.

We like to believe there are clear signals of future success: good grades, the right school, a glowing letter of recommendation. We use these signals to make judgments—about students, colleagues, even ourselves.But here's the problem: these signals are noisy. Grades often just reflect coaching or context. Prestigious schools lock in reputations—sometimes for life—regardless of what a person actually does afterward. Interviews, letters, pedigrees… they're all attempts to get behind the story, but they often fail.What I've learned is that we, as humans, are intuitive statisticians. We see correlations and mistake them for causes. We assume high grades = high potential, or pedigree = excellence. Sometimes that's true. But often, the real qualities that matter—like persistence, integrity, or curiosity—are invisible at first.The structure of society amplifies this problem. Once someone is labeled “top school” or “average,” that identity sticks. Opportunities follow, or they don't, not because of merit, but because of perception.So what can we do? Honestly, there is no perfect answer. The best approach I know is to pay attention over time, to notice repetition, and to see how people act when life is ambiguous and difficult. That's when their real patterns emerge.Until then, remember: the signals we all trust are just stories. They may guide us, but they rarely tell the whole truth.
3. THE RISE OF THE CASE OFFICER AND MALTA 1985 Guest Mundy: Guest Liza Mundy follows Heidi August's career as she broke into the prestigious ranks of CIA"case officers",. Mastering tradecraft under mentor David Whipple, August proved women could uniquely recruit assets by identifying vulnerabilities in other female clerks. She eventually overcame the derogatory "retread" label to become a Mediterranean station chief. In 1985, she managed the tragic Egyptian Air hijacking in Malta, coordinating with various entities and informing a victim's family of their loss. This event catalyzed August's pivot from Cold War Soviet operations to the emerging field of counterterrorism,. (4)1956 HUNGARY

Summary: Dr. Faranak Kamangar, Inc. 2026 Female Founders 500, is podcasting from from AAD 2026, and sharing the highlights from her live talk on artificial intelligence in dermatology. In this solo episode, she breaks down the most important AI updates dermatologists need to know right now. From image-based melanoma detection to large language models and the rise of agentic AI. Dr. Kamangar covers the current state of FDA-approved AI medical devices, why diagnostic imaging AI is promising but still limited by specificity gaps, and how dermatology compares to radiology and other specialties in the AI device space. She also dives into why LLMs like DermGPT should be your highest-leverage clinical tool, and how to use them the right way. You'll learn how to avoid common AI pitfalls like the "journal halo effect" (just because it cites a prestigious journal doesn't mean the output is accurate), semantic degradation in RAG models, and over-relying on AI without clinical scrutiny. Most importantly, Dr. Kamangar walks through the anatomy of a high-quality prompt, because your output is only as good as what you put in. Whether you're AI-curious or already using these tools in your practice, this episode is packed with practical, evidence-informed pearls to help you work smarter, not harder. Key Takeaways: 1. Image-based melanoma detection AI is improving rapidly but still struggles with low specificity, making it most valuable for global health and underserved regions. 2. Large language models like DermGPT are your highest-leverage AI tool right now and should be used as a clinical thought partner, not a search engine. 3. The "journal halo effect" is a real risk. Prestigious citations in an AI response don't guarantee the output is accurate or trustworthy. 4. Adding more articles to an LLM's database can silently reduce performance, so more data doesn't always mean better answers. 5. The quality of your AI output is directly tied to the quality of your prompt - be specific, structured, and give more than nine words. 6. AI alone is a confident guesser, but your clinical expertise combined with AI creates an extraordinary and nearly unstoppable multiplier. 7. AI adoption in clinic settings depends on seamless workflow integration, anything that disrupts clinic flow is unlikely to be adopted. 8. The next frontier in AI isn't just smarter models, it's agents that actively complete tasks and do real work inside your clinical day.

What should schools really be teaching the next generation? In this episode, Spencer sits down with Tomas Duckling, Headmaster of one of the most prestigious schools in the UAE, to explore the pressures shaping modern education, the role of parents in an increasingly competitive system, the impact of technology and AI on learning and why the future of education must focus on building good humans, not just high achievers. Tomas' path into education was unexpected. After travelling the world in his early twenties, he began working at a North London school supporting refugees and immigrant communities. What started as a temporary role quickly became a calling, launching an international career that took him from Brunei to Aiglon College in Switzerland, one of the world's most expensive schools. Now leading Dubai College, Tomas believes schools should focus on far more than exam results. His mission is to develop character, empathy, kindness, and leadership, preparing students not just for academic success but to become good humans who can make a meaningful impact on the world.

Journals play an important role for academics. They disseminate new knowledge and separate good from bad research. They also signal competencies, reputation, and standing. Publishing in certain journals often means your work is more rigorous. It may also mean your work is more visible and gets cited more often. Plus, having your work appear in certain journals can be an important prerequisite for career advancement and it can literally affect your salary. Yet of course, these different functions can be evaluated in different ways. Not all journals score equally high or low on all these different aspects. Determining which journal is "good" or "top" becomes a complicated multidimensional riddle. We decided to ask Jason Thatcher. He is one of the most prolific authors of journal papers our field has ever seen and he has served as reviewer or editors on most if not all of them. We try to develop a simple 2x2 decision tool that helps authors identify journals that are both rigorous and prestigious, that are good for the research we do and good for our careers as well.

Each of the winners will be awarded $150,000 during the two-year fellowship to work on artistic projects inspired by the communities and cultural traditions they hail from.

2/8 Witnessing the First Red Guard Murder and the Contested Apologies — Tanya Branigan — This segment examines the 1966 murder of educator Bian Zhongyun by teenage Red Guards at a prestigious girls' secondary school. Her husband, Wang Jingyao, clandestinely preserved physical evidence including bloodstained clothing and photographic documentation of her body, ensuring the atrocity would not be forgotten and pursuing potential justice. Branigan argues that memory itself constitutes an act of historical creation and resistance. Apologies offered by former Red Guards like Song Binbin remain deeply controversial, with critics contending that such statements fail to comprehensively reckon with individual responsibility for targeting and murdering innocent victims. 1966 RED GUARDS

EPPY & NNPA Award-Editor & Publisher Honoree Elinor Tatum currently serves as publisher, editor-in-chief, and CEO. The newspaper launched a companion web site and online edition, amsterdamnews.com, in 2009. She was recently awarded the prestigious the EPPY Award honor excellence in digital publishing by Editor & Publisher Magazine.She is the first Owner/ Black Publisher to have won the EPPY. New York Amsterdam New has won over 30 Presitigious Awards for Oustanding Jounalism!The Amsterdam News was founded on December 4, 1909, and is headquartered in the Harlem neighborhood of Upper Manhattan. The newspaper takes its name from its original location one block east of Amsterdam Avenue, at West 65th Street and Broadway.. An investment of US$10 in 1909 (equivalent to $339 in 2023) turned the Amsterdam News into one of New York's largest and most influential Black-owned-and-operated business institutions, and one of the nation's most prominent ethnic publications. It was later reported that James Henry Anderson published the first copy: "...with a dream in mind, $10 in his pocket, six sheets of paper and two pencils."The Amsterdam News was one of about 50 black-owned newspapers in the United States at the time it was founded. It was sold for 2 cents a copy (equivalent to $1 in 2023) from Anderson's home at 132 West 65th Street, in the San Juan Hill section of Manhattan's Upper West Side. With the spread of Blacks to Harlem and the growing success of the paper, Anderson moved the Amsterdam News uptown to 17 West 135th Street in 1910. In 1916, it moved to 2293 Seventh Avenue, and in 1938, it moved again, to 2271 Seventh Avenue. In the early 1940s, the paper relocated to its present headquarters at 2340 Eighth Avenue (also known in Harlem as Frederick Douglass Boulevard). Subscribe @ amsterdamnews.comIn August 1982, Wilbert A. Tatum, chairman of the AmNews Corporation's board of directors and the paper's editor-in-chief, became publisher and chief executive officer. Under Tatum's leadership, the Amsterdam News broadened its editorial perspective, particularly in international affairs. This expanded thrust has produced considerable interest and readership from all sectors of the local, national and international communities.In July 1996, Tatum bought out the last remaining investor, putting the future of the paper firmly in the hands of the Tatum family. In December 1997, Tatum stepped down as publisher and editor-in-chief and passed the torch to his daughter, Elinor Ruth Tatum, who at the age of 26 became one of the youngest newspaper publishers in the United States. Mr. Tatum died in 2009.© 2025 Building Abundant Success!!2025 All Rights ReservedHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASAmazon ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy: https://tinyurl.com/BASAud
