Though it was only a minor surgery, Dawn Lipthrott says there’s really no such thing when it’s being performed on a loved one, especially when the patient is over the age of 90. When her friend of 45 years and “second mother” Maria Boudet had a pacemaker replaced at Orlando Health hospital in May 2017, Lipthrott had the unenviable responsibility of spending the day in the waiting room. In the past, she would have waited several hours before a surgeon arrived with a brief update, which she’d then have to translate for the patient’s anxious but absent family members. Not anymore. Instead, she got messages from inside the operating room straight to her smartphone — and so did everyone else who wanted them, whether they were down the hall, at school or in another part of the world. “It was like night and day from what I had experienced before,” Lipthrott says. “I just loved it.” Now in 57 hospitals, the Electronic Access to Surgical Events (or EASE) technology is revolutionizing waiting rooms from coast to coast — as long as you can stomach a close-up view of Grandma’s gallstones. It’s the brainchild of Kevin and Patrick de la Roza, brothers who took vastly different paths in life only to end up in the same place. [READ MORE]( 2 [Acumen]( [Acumen]( [Goodbye, Space Coast. Hello, Space Mountains]( When you think of the American space industry, you probably think of California or Florida. Think again. Mark Lee, a 66-year-old former NASA astronaut, had just retired from Affiliated Engineers when his bosses mentioned they were thinking about launching an aerospace division. “I said, ‘Well, I’d like to take that on,’” Lee recalls. His first suggestion was to move their focus to Colorado Springs. “They asked: ‘Why would you move to Colorado?’ I told them: “That’s the place where everybody is.’” Indeed. Colorado Springs, despite being less heralded than Huntsville, Alabama, or the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, is often the first choice for those looking to break through the space industry stratosphere.

With hair perfectly coiffed, makeup and heels on, Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, stood on the steps of the private Lindo Wing of St. Mary’s Hospital. Shutters clicked and flashes burst around her as she and Prince William introduced their tiny baby son, Louis, to the world … just hours after Kate had given birth. The royal couple did the same with son George and daughter Charlotte, making it a royal tradition. But when the newest royal baby entered the world last Monday, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle did not host a photo-call hours after the birth. They announced their decision to abstain from this tradition several weeks earlier, sending the British media into a tizzy. U.K. tabloid The Sun wrote that as taxpayers, it’s their “royal right” to see photos of the baby.
