Author Michael Bates’s New Book The Playing Fields of the Hellenes

Smyrna, GA, June 28, 2024 –Michael Bates, who had a long career in valuations of specialty real estate and healthcare businesses, has completed his new book, “The Playing Fields of the Hellenes: A Story about the Ancient Olympics”: a captivating and engaging historical fiction that brings to life the glory and grandeur of the ancient Olympic Games as it explores the origins of organized athletics.

“Perhaps, civilization in the world began with organized athletic competitions,” writes Bates. “Formal sporting events are considered to have originated with the ancient Olympics, which took place at a place called Olympia from 776 BC to AD 393. (The modern Olympic Games began in 1896 in Athens, Greece, and have continued throughout the world every four years to the present.) Before they were Greeks, they called themselves Hellenes. Ancient Greece was comprised of many city-states that were typically at war. The Hellenes agreed to a truce called Ekecheiria, which allowed free passage to and from Olympia for participants and representatives for the games. This story begins with main characters traveling the Greek isles recruiting participants for the next games at Olympia; it concludes with sporting battles for victory on the sacred grounds of Olympia.”

ShopSee MD Unveils Patented, Innovative Medical Video Tool Streamlining Patient Procedure Comprehension and Consent,

ShopSee MD Unveils Patented, Innovative Medical Video Tool Streamlining Patient Procedure Comprehension and Consent,

Santa Barbara, CA, June 29, 2024 –Surgery procedures are often complex, expensive, and high-risk for both the healthcare organization and the patient. One area causing a significant financial loss is patient unpreparedness. Patients arriving unprepared for their surgery raise the financial risk for the healthcare organization and creates higher stress for the staff and patients, resulting in delays leading to higher costs in time and in money.

ShopSee MD™ is introducing a patented, turnkey HIPAA Compliant solution that uses interactive video to simplify complex information, confirm patient comprehension, consent, and compliance. ShopSee MD™ uses the healthcare organization’s existing video library to create interactive videos that can be e-mailed to patients or delivered within their patient portals to fully explain upcoming procedures, answer patient questions and capture signatures on paperwork required by the healthcare organization prior to the procedure date.

Benefits of this AI driven technology include:

· Higher Retention: Patients retain more than 80% usage and retention rate when watching and interacting with a video rather than reading as most are “visual learners”.

· Legal Compliance: Automatically confirm patients’ understanding throughout the video through interactive checkpoints which go straight into the healthcare organization’s records automatically.

· Clarification: Patients can clarify any item by clicking on it and bringing up more detail which are then confirmed by the patient as understood, going into the healthcare organization’s record automatically.

· Save Money: Mitigate lawsuits and wasted time due to patients being ill-prepared and having a lack of understanding about their procedure.

· Reduce Stress: Lower stress levels for patients and medical staff by having better prepared patients.

· Compliance: Electronically confirms patient compliance and agreement through interactive confirmation and final sign-off.

ShopSee MD™’s patented technology is built explicitly for Healthcare Enterprise (Privacy, Regulations, etc.) and is based around centralized AI-driven data. The AI-driven data uncovers deeper insights and improves patient understanding, creating cleaner healthcare organization-patient messaging.

Glagoslav Publications Brings Out Tefil, Rafał Wojasiński’s New Engaging Masterpiece, in Which We Come Across a Curious – and Eerie – Situation

London, United Kingdom, June 29, 2024 — Summary:A young man named Rozmaryn finds a photograph depicting his mother in the company of a stranger. He lost both his parents at an early age, and never even knew his mother. So he sets off in search of that stranger, and this leads him to one of the most articulate, yet unsettling and possibly mentally handicapped characters as can be found anywhere in literature: Tefil. A balding and somewhat odiferous inhabitant of a garret flat in a sleepy town somewhere in Poland, never married, Tefil, who spent his working years as a village factotum, now exists as something of a self-interested Oxfam bin collecting the clothes of the dead. He also goes to extreme lengths to avoid paying back insignificant debts and cadging pastries, coffee, and sometimes alcoholic dinners, from passers-by to whom he attaches himself like a tick. He also philosophises, disparaging the sense of human life, and singing a paean to ‘all-conquering mould’, which is the only living creature that cannot be destroyed (supposedly, it even survives being eaten and digested), and which is fated to overcome – to consume – all other life, including man and his civilisation. How does that make us feel, as human beings ourselves?

Rafał Wojasiński’s character is challenging, repulsive, and yet fatally attractive. Like Rozmaryn, we cannot tear ourselves away from his rushing stream of words and ideas, which fascinate us while filling us with existential dread. But is Tefil serious? Or is he just spilling an unending yarn, talking for the sake of hearing his unquestionably spellbinding voice? One hopes it is the latter, and it just might be. For Tefil is a poetic novel, something in the line of James Joyce’s Finnegans Wake; something of a literary equivalent to absolute music and non-representational painting. Standing before Wojasiński’s puzzling canvas, hearing his dissonant composition through to the end, the reader might be left bewildered – but will certainly not find his time spent with Tefil unrewarding.

Turn-Based RPG with Tactical Combat and Roguelike Storytelling Ash of Gods

Nicosia, Cyprus, June 29, 2024 –The mobile version of Ash of Gods: Redemption has retained all the advantages of a PC game: a twisted story, stunning art and an amazing soundtrack, but its interface has undergone significant redesign. The updated UI for battles and dialogues makes the game comfortable even on small mobile screens. You can learn about specific changes and the team’s upcoming plans, or ask the developers any questions in the Discord channel dedicated to the development of games in the Ash of Gods universe:

Get the mobile version of Ash of Gods: Redemption on Google Play:

Ash of Gods: Redemption will be available on Google Play for $9.99 / €9.49 / £7.99. The enhanced version with new voiceover, battle system and improved translations will become available both on Steam and mobile devices in a few months.

Three separate protagonists rise in response to a centuries-old menace once thought to be mere folklore. Captain Thorn Brenin, the bodyguard Lo Pheng, the scribe Hopper Rouley, and many others, do not yet know that the reapers have returned and intend to drown the world in blood so that they may awaken the sleeping gods.

Ash of Gods’ storyline is constantly evolving in response to players’ choices, sometimes even resulting in death. But, the death of a character is not game over. Instead, the story moves forward with the death of that character and previous choices continuing to impact future events.

Combat in Ash of Gods is a blend of both traditional turn-based strategy and CCG gameplay. While individual tactics will depend upon the skills and classes of the characters, players will unlock and accumulate cards that have the power to unleash powerful abilities, sometimes altering the course of an entire battle.

Exploring the universe of Ash of Gods

Ash of Gods: Redemption is the first full-length game that takes place in Terminus, which is the universe of the series. Players who want to get acquainted with this medieval fantasy world more can play AurumDust’s game Ash of Gods: The Way. The events of The Way take place 20 years after Redemption and new heroes try to stop a new horrible war.
