Volunteers Needed:

Be the Generation that Ends Alzheimer's

Ages 60-75

Researchers are trying to find a way to delay or prevent Alzheimer's, but they need your help. Find out if you are eligible for the Generation Program, an effort of the Alzheimer's Prevention Initiative that will test investigational study medications in thousands of people across the country.

NOCCR is a part of a national effort to end Alzheimer's disease known as the Generation Program.

We are looking to recruit people who have no symptoms of Alzheimer's, but who may be at particularly high risk for developing the disease due to age, family history, or because of their genetic background.

This study will last 5-8 years and participants must be willing to make 8 visits to the study center in the first year and 4 visits per year after that. Compensation up to $6,150 may be available for time and travel.

If you are between the ages of 60-75, you may be eligible to participate in the Alzheimer's Prevention Initiative's Generation Program. For more information, please call 865-305-DRUG (3784).

Apple Watch data solved an Australian murder

Data from an Apple Watch may have helped investigators in Australia solve a murder from 2016. According to Australia's ABC News, investigators collected data from the Apple Watch belonging to the victim, 57-year-old Myrna Nilsson, and the data showed that Nilsson's niece, Caroline Nilsson, had in fact staged a home invasion, and committed the murder herself. The Apple Watch's activity and heart rate measurements helped ascertain the timing of the murder. leading to the younger Nilsson's arrest.

I've often wondered about this stuff, and I have some questions you may know the answers to.

General:

What's the best way to speak anonymously in the modern age with all the tracking that goes on, government or otherwise?

Tech:

In your estimation, based on experience or rumor, is Tor generally compromised/weak or is it hard enough to resist de-anonymizing attacks when used as intended?
Is there realistically any way to communicate anonymously with a modern smartphone?

Law:
