Game | Amnesia: The Dark Descent |
Location | Brennenburg Castle |
Objective | Fix the elevator. |
Danger rating | Safe. |

Location guide | |
Previous Archive Tunnels | Next Storage |
The Back Hall is the area where tinderboxes 46 and 47 are found, as well as lantern oil container 13 is found.
- Two tinderboxes can be found in a chest underneath the stairs. (46 & 47)
- There is a oil container in a chest underneath the stairs. (13)
The Back Hall is the section of the castle reached after the escape from the Kaernk in the Archive Tunnels. It's a large, well-lit area, and a nice contrast from the gloomy areas before it.
In the middle of the room there is a fountain with some disturbing features, the spout being a winged centipede with a baby's face, and a pair of disembodied legs hanging over the edge. After exploration of the side rooms, a small corpse will be resting on top of the legs (in low sanity).
The objective here is to fix the broken elevator so that Daniel can use it to access the Prison. Judging from the high number of important parts the machine powering the elevator is missing, one can assume that the elevator was sabotaged by Alexander to hinder Daniel from reaching the Inner Sanctum.
The Shadow will invade the hall after Daniel finishes exploring the Storage, and along with filling the room with the fleshy residue, it will turn the fountain's water into a red fluid, probably blood. After returning to the Back Hall after repairing the Elevator in the Machine Room, the screen will go black. Daniel's vision is then restored to find that the Shadow has blocked the way back to the Hall, making retreat impossible.
The Back Hall is a safe room and several sections of Brennenburg Castle can be accessed from here. These locations are:
- Guest Room
- Study
- Storage
- Machine Room - Locked. The key can be found in the Guest Room.
- The Elevator - The machine powering the elevator must be fixed before it can be accessed.
- The music heard in the Back Hall is also known as "ambience safe ambience ".
- From concept art, one can see that the developers put down a lot of thought in the design of the fountain.
- The Guild Seal from the 2004 video game Fable by Lionhead Studios can be found on the railing pillars in this room.

Posted by FHM.com, 09 April 2007
Mange-tout, mange-tout. You look awesome – are you comfortable showing off your body in FHM? Yeah, I'm very happy with my body! When you're young, you often don't accept having curves, or having none. You spend your time dreaming about the girls in the magazines, and now I'm here…
Are you single at the moment? I don't have a boyfriend right now and I'm a bit sad about that. I know that there are a lot of boys who are into me, but it's up to them to take the first step. I don't have any special kind of boy in mind. He can be tall, short, fat, I don't care, all I'm asking for is a little ambition and a very big sense of humour. You're not going to believe me, but I've only had two serious boyfriends in my life.
But you've had 17,710,012 "profile views" on your MySpace page! Surely one of them has to be from Mr Right? I'm wary of the internet – there's no way I'll be chatted up on it. I find it really freaky! People feel so free when they're online that they can be really rude. My profile on MySpace attracts a lot of sexual psychos.
Would you ever go out with a blinged-up rapper? I find these show-off guys quite… interesting. Ever since I was little, their universe has fascinated me. I find the imagery they express quite funny and sexy. Even the girls polishing the Hummers in bikinis aren't that shocking to me. I quite like all that...
Could you ever date… an FHM writer? After spending all this time with you... I find you very attractive! Ha!
We don't get it, what's so funny? There are loads of sexy R'n'B divas around at the minute, so who else are you into? I'm a really big friend of Rihanna, and people often compare me to her. I find it very flattering to be compared to great artists like Rihanna. I've never had a chance to meet Beyoncé, but I love her too. I saw her on stage during the last MTV Video Music Awards and her show totally rocked my world.
What's on your iPod at the moment? It changes. For example, during this shoot it was playing Britney Spears to get me in a fun mood for my photos. It's not normally what I listen to, but I have to admit, I really enjoyed it. But I also love soul by d'Angelo, a bit of Janet Jackson, Madonna, or Stevie Wonder. There's one singer you won't find on my iPod, but who means a lot to me and that's 50 Cent. I'm crazy for Fiddy.
While we're talking music, we'd better let you plug your album a bit… I wrote two songs on this album, which I'm very proud of. It mixes rap, R'n'B and rock. I'm only 19, but, musically, I feel like I'm almost three times my age. If you listen closely to the words, you will find clues about my life – the joys and pains of being a teenager.
Finally, what's the sexiest outfit that you own? I'm my own stylist! I think I'm good at it. In bed, I keep it really basic – boxers and a vest. When I hang out with my friends or at home, I often wear jeans, sweatshirts… but getting dressed by FHM was a true moment of happiness. I literally fell in love with this little green dress you chose for me. And the best thing was that you offered to let me keep it! Thanks!

Katy Perry's got more social media cred than the likes of Ariana Grande, but what is it that makes her so damn popular?...
It's pretty much a scientific fact that really hot girls gravitate towards each other. FHM takes a look at the sexiest...
Her new video might not be very long, but we're pretty sure it's got the power to make time stand still...
Don't panic. She's probably not actually trapped. But if she is, she's making good use of her time with this insanely...

which part?
like down the middle when you karate chopped it?
nope, the battery light comes on, sometimes, and it does nothing when i push button. it did this once before a couple weeks ago but then decided it wanted to fix itself. doesn't look like it's going to do that this time though
might have to karate chop it after i take the hard drive out though, that sounds like fun.

VALLEY PARK, Mo. (KMOV.com) - Police say a man stole a woman's car and crashed it after claiming he needed help.
Police say a Valley Park woman offered a ride to 34-year-old Michael A. Null, Jr., who was walking with a walker and his female companion on Nov. 11. According to authorities, Null's companion told the woman Null's walker was bent. The woman then offered the two a ride to her home where she said she had a walker that was in good shape.
The woman proceeded to drive Null and his companion back to her home. Police say when she went inside to get the walker, she left her 2009 Ford Escape running with the keys in the ignition. Null then jumped in the front seat and drove off.
Police say Null weaved in and out of traffic and exceeded the speed limit. Null eventually hit another car, a 2002 Ford Explorer at the intersection of Highway 141 and Hawkins Road. The drive of the other car hit his head on the steering wheel and was hospitalized at St. Anthony's Medical Center.
Null ran on foot from the scene but was soon caught. Null is charged with stealing a motor vehicle, resisting arrest, and second degree assault. Null was charged with second degree assault because of the injuries suffered by the other driver in accident. He is currently being held in the St. Louis County Jail on $25,000 bond.

Liverpool were scared of Man City, claims Adebayor after dour stalemate
Emmanuel Adebayor has claimed Liverpool's defensive approach in their dour goalless draw with Manchester City yesterday shows that his side are now a Premier League force to be reckoned with. Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United have all suffered defeats at Eastlands this season and Togo striker Adebayor believes the Reds were focussed more on avoiding becoming City's latest scalp than chasing a valuable win in the race for fourth spot. 'It wasn't a good game and they came here not to lose,' he said. 'I think they were looking for a draw and that's what they left with.' Protest: Adebayor (right) reacts after a challenge by Liverpool's Agger (left) The match was a game of few chances but Adebayor also insisted that he deserved a penalty after a push from Reds centre back Daniel Agger, and was not impressed with referee peter Walton's decision not to award the spot-kick. 'It was a penalty,' he said. 'Sometimes you can see things when you're off the pitch and they look like a foul, but when you're on, you know that they're not. 'But I was on the pitch and as far as I was concerned, it was definitely a foul. If you watch the replays on TV again you will clearly see that Agger pushes me off the ball as cross comes in - you can't do that and I can't understand why a penalty wasn't given.' Liverpool must find cutting edge to win race for fourth spot, insists BenayounMan City 0 Liverpool 0: Mancini desperate to have Carlos Tevez backLIVERPOOL FC

Performance golf ball fitting focuses on finding the best ball for your game and lowering your score.
Titleist offers the most precise club fitting experience in the game.

Track your stats. Get video tips. Set goals for your golf game.
that's a great idea. May be i'll carry an old 6 iron until that honeymoon stage is over.
I still use iron covers on my 712 CB! LOL seriously, they just look amazing and I don't want all the bag chatter. Unless I am in a tournament, I will move off of rocks and other items that may damage my clubs.
not lame at all. Casual round..new irons I'm with ya! It's hard to put that first ding on the new set. Like you said in a few rounds/weeks you won't even think about it!
Agree about the casual round...not taking any chance with the 714s!
You guys are nuts... clubs are for playing not for looking at and polishing. Just hit them. They'll be just fine.
You have to use the new club. They're irons, that's what they're meant to do!
When I was a kid, someone told me when you hit a shot on a cart path, borrow a friend's wedge and knock it on the green. I didn't understand the joke until years later. Casual round, I would move it. You don't want to scratch your new clubs. I bought head covers for my new irons last year, and they still look like new, no bag chatter.
I don't blame you! I have the 710s and I wouldn't hit them off rocks!!
Using a 4 or 5 iron, 'putt' the ball to a safer place (where your swing is not mentally impeded!) play it well back and hit the ball at its equator. Any potential temporary disadvantage will be soon forgotten. Works - the game is played between the ears :-)
New or not, I'd use the club if I had to.
It is a friend of mine, a Titleist Ambassador, and Multi - event winner, who suggested to me the idea I mentioned about hitting the ball on its equator etc. he also says that (as claimed by another on this site) that Tour Players do not treat their clubs as disposable commodities.....
Melbourne Australia
Haha! I can totally relate! I just got some new AP1s and my first few times playing with them, I would either pull a hybrid or a wedge (depending on how far I needed to go), when playing in non-grassy areas haha!
Depends on how much money is on the line at the time!

High-Dimensional Linear Representations for Robust Speech Recognition
AbstractPhoneme classification is investigated in linear feature domains with the aim of improving the robustness to additive noise. Linear feature domains allow for exact noise adaptation and so should result in more accurate classification than representations involving non-linear processing and dimensionality reduction. We develop a generative framework for phoneme classification using linear features. We first show results for a representation consisting of concatenated frames from the centre of the phoneme, each containing f frames. As no single f is optimal for all phonemes, we further average over models with a range of values of f . Next we improve results by including information from the entire phoneme. In the presence of additive noise, classification in this framework performs better than an analogous PLP classifier, adapted to noise using cepstral mean and variance normalisation, below 18dB SNR.

The Brooklyn Cookbook
Categories: Cookbooks
The book was published in 1991, and contains 250 recipes divided into the borough's nationalities. There are also chapters on comestibles made, sold, and served in Brooklyn, and a look at early Brooklyn and the various neighborhoods. In between recipes are stories about Brooklyn history -- from The Brooklyn Dodgers to The Lubavitcher Hasidim to the story behind Fox's U-Bet Syrup (AKA The Brooklyn Elixir). The black & white photos throughout the book are old and intriguing.
This is a community cookbook in the real sense -- and boy, what a community (if separated from NYC, Brooklyn would be the fourth largest city in America; it is estimated that one out of every seven United States citizens has roots here). Because of the borough's diversity, this is also an international cookbook. It cost me $23 in 1991, but apparently this has become a classic: Amazon has it new starting at $63.98, and used for $17.98.
Tomorrow: A recipe for Kasha Varnishkas!

Well, what was Auntie Mame but an overbearing, bull-headed force of nature? If a musical worked for her life, then why not Jesse "The Body" Ventura's? Why not, indeed, says producer Pierre Cossette who, according to today's Daily Variety, is planning an all-singing, all-dancing Broadway show about the ex-wrestler turned Minnesota governor turned (as of today) guest star on CBS soap "The Young & the Restless."
The Ventura show will "be a combination [of] 'Rocky' and 'Mr. Smith Goes to Washington,'" Cossette tells Variety's Army Archerd.
If you think Cossette's threats are idle, consider he's the man who last year backed Kathie Lee Gifford's theatrical foray ("Putting It Together").

While American textbooks try to pretty up the history of Islam, in the real world, its less savory contours still emerge, even in countries reputed to be the most tolerant towards those of other faiths.
Another Third Way
AJC: There is a deep resistance in the Western world to take theology seriously, which is a mindset that must change, a theologian said at a Heritage Foundation lecture about the book, The Third Choice: Islam, Dhimmitude and Freedom.

PHOENIX -- Moderating temperatures will be the weather story over the next couple of days. We'll also be seeing some high clouds from time to time over the state through the weekend. Highs through the weekend in the deserts will be in the mid-90s, a little bit above average. Overnight lows will be in the upper 60s to low 70s, depending on your location around the Valley.
The high country will enjoy cool morning temperatures with lows in the 30s, 40s and 50s. But during the daytime hours, with mostly sunny skies, afternoon temperatures will be at or just above normal for this time of year in the mountains.
As we get into the middle of next week, we're looking for highs in the 80s, but not much of a chance for rain anywhere in the state. In fact, this quiet, dry, rather seasonal weather pattern may get rooted over Arizona for the next couple of weeks, which isn't that unusual for this time of year.
Oh, so when is the last 100-degree temp of the year? Well, we may have had it, but don't give the all clear until the third week of October. The latest during any year metro Phoenix recorded a 100-degree reading was on Oct. 23, 2003.

This past weekend, I decided to take a camping trip up North in Flagstaff.
The drive up to Flagstaff was rather interesting, considering the person I went with got a speeding ticket going 92 mph. Apparently anything over 85 in the state of Arizona is considered a criminal defense and results in a stay at the local jail.
Luckily…she didn't get hauled away and the cop was nice enough to knock it down to a civil ticket which just resulted in a fine.
After that whole thing, the tricky part became trying to find a campground with open spots. We didn't get to Sedona until around 6 and a lot of people were already camping. Not good…
So what did we end up doing? We decided to give dispersed camping a try. Basically we just drove down a random forest road outside of Flagstaff city limits and looked for an open campsite in the woods. We managed to find one about a mile in off the main road that had a fire ring and everything already there.
So we set up camp there, about a mile from any other campsites. At first I was little nervous about the whole idea since there are a lot of things in the woods. Bears and Elk to name a few.
So it finally got dark the first night and we decided to hop in the tent and call it a night. All I can say is damn, the ground sure is hard. My back will never be the same after sleeping in that tent for two nights.
And if that wasn't enough, both mornings around 4 AM the Elk decided to just start making random grunting noises throughout the woods. A few times, I actually heard the elk walking near our tent.
So the second night, instead of slamming Blue Moon's all night, we decided to get some liquor and get really drunk. We figured that would make the awkward forest sounds, cold-ass weather, and hard ground a tad more bearable. Here is where Sailor Jerry comes into the story.
If you don't know him, Sailor Jerry is a man that will take away everything from you and and leave you with nothing more than an awkward morning and a migraine headache. It just so happens to be 92 proof rum and that extra proof really catches up with you.
Sunday morning was an ass kicking and I was hurting big time. My head was pounding and I felt like the world was spinning in different directions. It is time to take a break from the booze once again.
So yeah, camping was definitely a nice experience, except for the dozen hot dogs, s'mores, and beers I ended up drinking. It really reminds us how many things we take for granted in our normal daily rituals like taking a shower and sleeping in a bed.
I may have gotten the best sleep ever last night, thanks to my nice bed

Obama All In For Oil & Gas – Disrupt Dirty Power
As Climate Disasters Mount, and Temperature Record Are Shattered, Obama Brags About Oil and Gas Production
I was disgusted to watch President Obama's celebration of his Administration's promotion of fossil fuel production, when he was in Oklahoma this week to announce his "All of the Above" energy strategy.
Fulfilling every oil and gas industry lobbyists' wet dream and repeating every lie, Obama said:
So today, I've come to Cushing, an oil town — (applause) — because producing more oil and gas here at home has been, and will continue to be, a critical part of an all-of-the-above energy strategy. (Applause.)
Now, under my administration, America is producing more oil today than at any time in the last eight years. (Applause.) That's important to know. Over the last three years, I've directed my administration to open up millions of acres for gas and oil exploration across 23 different states. We're opening up more than 75 percent of our potential oil resources offshore. We've quadrupled the number of operating rigs to a record high. We've added enough new oil and gas pipeline to encircle the Earth and then some.
So we are drilling all over the place — right now. That's not the challenge. That's not the problem. In fact, the problem in a place like Cushing is that we're actually producing so much oil and gas in places like North Dakota and Colorado that we don't have enough pipeline capacity to transport all of it to where it needs to go -- both to refineries, and then, eventually, all across the country and around the world. There's a bottleneck right here because we can't get enough of the oil to our refineries fast enough. And if we could, then we would be able to increase our oil supplies at a time when they're needed as much as possible.
Now, right now, a company called TransCanada has applied to build a new pipeline to speed more oil from Cushing to state-of-the-art refineries down on the Gulf Coast. And today, I'm directing my administration to cut through the red tape, break through the bureaucratic hurdles, and make this project a priority, to go ahead and get it done. (Applause.)
I thought Obama's State of the Union Fossil Fuel Celebration was way over the top, but this new "All of the Above" energy policy goes way beyond that.
Obama's total collapse demonstrates what Chris Hedges has written: Â our political and economic systems are broken, and direct action and civil disobedience are all we have left.
Today, Occupy Wall Street begins to connect the dots between the bankers and the polluters, by kicking off Disrupt Dirty Power – The Eviction of the Fossil Fuel Occupation Begins:
The targets of the actions—which begin exactly three months before the 2012 Earth Summit in Rio—are three-fold, as Occupy connects the dots between dirty fossil fuel giants, the dirty banks that fund them, and the dirty legislation and subsidies those corporations receive from politicians they help to elect with their profits.
On a similar direct action path, Bill McKibben at 350.org – obviously burned by President Obama on the Keystone XL Pipeline – kicked off his "connect the dots" Â campaign: connecting the dots between global warming and extreme weather events (just as over 6,000 US temperature records broken).
Here's what McKibben wrote – he was FAR more restrained than I: (watch McKibben on Democract Now!)
Earlier today, Barack Obama wrapped up his first trip to Oklahoma as President. He arrived just after a week of floods, capping off a winter that never came, which followed the hottest and driest summer Oklahoma had seen in thousands of years, perhaps ever.
But he wasn't in Oklahoma to talk about these climate disasters. He was there to laud his administration's fast-tracking of the southern leg of the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline. It's obvious from his speech today that President Obama isn't connecting the dots between fossil fuel extraction, climate change, and the extreme weather that has reshaped so much of the American landscape this past year.
It's a painful reminder that sometimes we must be leaders ourselves, before we can expect our elected officials to do the same. In this case, it's clearly up to us to connect the dots.
Today 350.org is launching a global day of action to call attention to these and other climate disasters, here on the same day as the President's annoucement. Across the planet now we see ever more flooding, ever more drought, ever more storms. People are dying, communities are being wrecked — the impacts we're already witnessing from climate change are unlike anything we have seen before.
If we're going to do these communities justice, we need to connect the dots between these disasters and show how all of them are linked to fossil fuels. We're setting aside May 5th for a global day of action to do just that: Connect the Dots between extreme weather and climate change.
You don't need a weatherman to tell which way the wind blows.

Don't be fuelish; conserve now or pay later
Moving Beyond Coal
Coal is our country's dirtiest energy source, from mining to burning to disposing of coal waste. Our campaign is uniting grassroots activists across the country, to move America Beyond Coal.
Coal is an outdated, backward, and dirty 19th-century technology
Not only is coal burning responsible for one third of US carbon emissions—the main contributor to climate disruption—but it is also making us sick, leading to as many as 13,000 premature deaths every year and more than $100 billion in annual health costs. The Beyond Coal campaign's main objective is to replace dirty coal with clean energy by mobilizing grassroots activists in local communities to advocate for the retirement of old and outdated coal plants and to prevent new coal plants from being built.
Our goals include:
- Retiring one-third of the nation's more than 500 coal plants by 2020
- Replacing the majority of retired coal plants with clean energy solutions such as wind, solar, and geothermal
- Keeping coal in the ground in places like Appalachia and Wyoming's Powder River Basin

Alamo Group and Partners Celebrate First Closing of a Publicly-owned Coal Plant in Texas
San Antonios Deely Plant expected to close by 2018, replaced by clean, solar power
Monday, June 20, 2011
San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro announced Monday that CPS Energy's Deely coal-fired power plant will shut down by 2018. Additional solar power contracts for the San Antonio area will replace that dirty electricity and bring clean energy jobs to Texas.
The Sierra Club, SEED Coalition, and Public Citizen issued a statement you can read on the Sierra Club's Texas Green Report blog. Read more in a story entitled Big Grassroots Coal Victory Deep in the Heart of Texas published in the national Sierra Club Scrapbook blog.

Moving Beyond Oil
The Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf is a wake up call. Now is our chance to turn the tides and create a clean energy future that moves us beyond oil. Get involved now. Visit the Sierra Club's beyond oil website and take action.
Alternatives are ready to power San Antonio
Solar energy is not the exotic, experimental power source it may have been 30 years ago. It is now providing energy in a big way around the globe. Loretta Van Coppenolle wrote Solar Energy: Ready for Baseload which includes information on projects and developments now occurring.
Contrary to popular belief, there is a cost effective and viable alternative to expanding CPS Energy's nuclear power generation at STP 3 & 4. While solar and wind are popular and receive a lot of press, they are dismissed by CPS Energy as being too intermittent for base-load generation. The alternative that is not intermittent and not talked about is geothermal power generation.
Sierra Club member Randy Carroll-Bradd articulates why geothermal is ready to power our city in his Summary of Geothermal Energy Generation for South Texas. In addition, Carroll-Bradd has compiled this easy to digest Comparison of Nuclear and Geothermal Energy Sources for South Texas.
Recently, experts from around Texas presented the San Antonio Geothermal Symposium. They discussed using thousands of oil & gas wells over South Texas "hot spots" as sites for geothermal power plants. In addition, they showed geothermal heat pump systems, for heating & air conditioning, that are commercially available at competitive prices. Presentations from the symposium are online here.
Energy Efficiency
Why San Antonio Businesses Should Support Energy Efficiency Instead of Nuclear Power |
No matter how you spell it, energy efficiency is vital to creating a sustainable future. When we reduce our energy use, we decrease our output of the polluting gases that cause global warming. Energy efficiency means using less energy through better technology to light streets, transport goods and people, and power homes and businesses. Reducing our energy use is one of the most cost-effective and fastest ways to meet our energy needs. And energy efficiency saves money - money that can be invested in schools, job creation, and new infrastructure. For example, a compact fluorescent light bulb that uses 16 watts of electricity produces as much light as an old fashioned 60 watt bulb, prevents 400 pounds of coal from being burned on the south side of San Antonio to produce electricity, and saves from two to four times its purchase price. Since fossil fuel power plants generate more than one-third of U.S. global warming emissions, saving energy also reduces pollution. From high tech lighting to energy-efficient building standards to fuel efficient transportation, energy efficiency makes good sense and good cents. |

Mexican National Had Prior Drug Conviction and had been Deported
SERGIO ACEVEDO SILVA a/k/a Zeta, 34, of Puyallup, Washington, was sentenced yesterday in U. S. District Court in Tacoma to 135 months in prison and five years of supervised release for Possession of Methamphetamine with Intent to Distribute and being an Alien in Possession of a Firearm. Since he was in the country illegally, SILVA will likely be deported following his prison term. At sentencing U.S. District Judge Ronald B. Leighton remarked that he was concerned about protecting the public since SILVA had been conducting drug deals while possessing a loaded gun.
According to court records, SILVA was arrested on July 5, 2007, following an investigation by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and the Puyallup Police. Police Officers observed SILVA loading items at a storage locker he had rented, and then making multiple stops where it appeared he was conducting drug sales. When stopped by police, SILVA had more than $7,000 in cash in the car and a loaded handgun. A search of the car and storage unit turned up small quantities of methamphetamine, cocaine, heroin, marijuana and numerous flat screen televisions. SILVA has a 2004 arrest and conviction in Pierce County for Possession of Methamphetamine. In that case he was released from custody and deported in January 2006.
The previous drug conviction and the possession of a firearm significantly increased the prison sentence faced by SILVA.
The case was investigated by the DEA and Puyallup Police Department. The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Matthew Thomas.

Endovascular Repair Of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
(Minimally Invasive Repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm; EVAR)
The aorta is the largest artery in the body. The abdominal part of the aorta is located below the diaphragm. It carries blood to the abdomen, pelvis, and legs. Sometimes, the walls of the aorta weaken and bulge in one area. This is called an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). When the aneurysm reaches a certain size, it may need to be repaired. Endovascular repair of an AAA (EVAR) is done from the inside of the artery. The doctor inserts a stent graft into the area to strengthen it.
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
Reasons for Procedure
This procedure is often done to repair AAA when the aneurysm:
- Causes physical symptoms (eg, abdominal pain)
- Causes complications (eg, clots that travel into the legs)
- Reaches a certain size and position that meets criteria for EVAR
- Has burst—Surgery must be done right away.
EVAR is now the preferred method to treat AAA. EVAR can result in less pain, shorter hospital stay, fewer complications, and faster recovery time compared to open surgery. However, closer follow-up over many years is needed.
Possible Complications
Your doctor will review a list of possible complications, which may include:
- Adverse reaction to anesthesia
- Infection
- Bruising or bleeding
- Damage to blood vessels or organs (possibly requiring open surgery)
- Leaking of blood at the graft
- Heart attack
- Blood clots
Before your procedure, talk to your doctor about ways to manage factors that may increase your risk of complications such as:
- Smoking
- Drinking
- Chronic disease such as diabetes or obesity
Your risk of complications may also be increased if you have had:
- A recent or active infection
- Bleeding or clotting disorders
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
Your doctor may:
- Do a physical exam, blood tests, and imaging tests (eg, CT scan)
- Ask about your medical history, including allergies, current medicines, bleeding disorders, and other concerns
- Have you meet with an anesthesiologist
Before the procedure:
- Do not eat or drink for eight hours prior to the procedure.
Talk to your doctor about your medicines. You may be asked to stop taking some medicines up to one week before the procedure, like:
- Anti-inflammatory drugs (eg, aspirin )
- Blood thinners, such as clopidogrel (Plavix) or warfarin (Coumadin)
Your doctor may use:
- General anesthesia —puts the entire body to sleep
- Regional anesthesia —blocks pain to a part of the body, may be used with a sedative
Description of the Procedure
You will lie on your back. You will receive medicine to ease pain and relax you. Once you are asleep and sedated, a breathing tube will be inserted into your throat and lungs. Sometimes, regional anesthesia will be used. A breathing tube will not be needed in this case.
The doctor will make small incisions in both sides of the groin. Catheters (thin tubes) will be inserted into the blood vessels and threaded up toward the aneurysm. Contrast dye will be injected through the catheters. The doctor will then guide a stent graft to the site. The graft will be placed into the weakened area and extended into both pelvic arteries. To guide each step, the doctor will use live x-ray images. Your vital signs will be monitored. Once the graft is in place, the doctor will remove the catheters. The incisions will be closed. Sterile bandages will be applied.
Immediately After Procedure
You will be taken to the intensive care unit (ICU). If you have a breathing tube, it will be removed. Your vital signs will be closely monitored.
How Much Will It Hurt?
Anesthesia will prevent pain during the procedure. Your doctor will give you medicine to manage the pain during the recovery process. There is little discomfort from the groin incisions.
Average Hospital Stay
The usual length of stay is 1-2 days. Your doctor may choose to keep you longer if needed.
Post-procedure Care
At the Hospital
At the hospital, you will:
- Gradually move around and increase your activity level
- Slowly return to eating solid foods, as tolerated
During your stay, the hospital staff will take steps to reduce your chance of infection such as:
- Washing their hands
- Wearing gloves or masks
- Keeping your incisions covered
There are also steps you can take to reduce your chances of infection such as:
- Washing your hands often and reminding visitors and healthcare providers to do the same
- Reminding your healthcare providers to wear gloves or masks
- Not allowing others to touch your incisions
At Home
When you return home, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:
- Keep the incision areas clean and dry. Follow your doctor's instructions for changing your bandages.
- Ask your doctor about when it is safe to shower, bathe, or soak in water.
- Take pain medicine as directed.
- Ask your doctor which activities are safe for you.
- Your condition needs to be carefully monitored. Be sure to go to all of your appointments.
Call Your Doctor
After you leave the hospital, contact your doctor if any of the following occurs:
- Redness, swelling, increasing pain, excessive bleeding, or discharge at the incision site
- Signs of infection, including fever and chills
- New abdominal pain
- Back pain
- Any change of color or sensation in your legs or feet
- Burning, pain, or problems when urinating
- Nausea or vomiting
- Abdominal cramps or diarrhea
- Unusual fatigue or depression
- Disorientation or confusion
- Numbness or tingling in the legs
- Cough
- New, unexplained symptoms
Call for medical help or go to the emergency room right away if you have:
- Shortness of breath
- Chest pain
If you think you have an emergency, call for medical help right away.

Listen To Cody Simpson In Jessica Jarrell's 'Make It Hot' [AUDIO]
Teen heathrob and Australian singing sensation Cody Simpson has reunited for another collaboration with Island Def Jam artist Jessica Jarrell to create the new slow and maturely themed 'Make It Hot'.
Ryan Seacrest Plays Matchmaker Between Cody Simpson & Kylie Jenner
From the time of Cody's early collaborations on his debut single "iYiYi" with Flo Rida to his most recent music video "Up to You" he has always been pinning after the elusive perfect girl. Perhaps in "Make It Hot" he has been able to find a little bit of her in Jessica Jarrell. Cody croons: "I can't lie. I want you and the music are the only things that I've been onto."
Cody Simpson Stopped By CHOP Over His Thanksgiving Weekend
Since their first collaboration together the duo seems to have matured in both vocal ability and theme as "Make It Hot" carries mature subject matter and explicit language. Cody is currently gearing up for his Welcome To Paradise Tour.
'Make It Hot'
I can see it in your eyes
You want me
Stop that , you're welcome over here
Mad at a chick like me
Are you mad 'cause no other girls do it like me
All the care I can take, all the love I can make
Well you'll never find somebody that would make you feel the way I could
If you want it, come and get it, come get it
I'm ready
Cool with every step 'cause I'm bad
Yeah, I said it
Boy, I'm bad
Don't you forget it
The way I walk, that's me

The way I got my hair up

The voice that I'm speaking right now
That's me, that's me
And the voice in your ear, that's me
Can't you see
I'mma take it, I'mma take it
If you give it to me right now, I'mma take it
I'll leave my ladies, if you taste it
There's a reason why this loving's got you wasted

I hope you're seeing everything that you need that girls do
She said, "Step up your game. Step it up, boy, if you ever want to start on things."
I really wish she had a different way of doing things
I think the city that I'm from has kind of ruined things
It's such a small place, not much to do, but search for women
The boys are chillin' and the girls are watchin' their hearts beats beatin'
And I have friends telling you stories
That you've often been sayin' that
I got to your head, but I'm not Mr. Perfect
I've been starin' at you all night

Algae as Biofuel: Navigating Towards a Better Future
Since 2010, Sea-Legs cadets have been sailing to help find a solution to the world's energy crisis. Working with members of the research group NAABB (National Alliance for Advanced Biofuels and Bioproducts), Sea-Legs cadets are collecting marine water samples at selected points throughout Long Island Sound and sending them to LEAP, a biology laboratory at Brooklyn College, New York. Biologists there receive the samples and isolate microalgae living in the water to grow for analysis. Some of these algae strains are rich in oil, and the strains that have the most oil and grow the best are passed to other NAAABB labs for further experimentation. There are over 30 labs working together to discover the best way to convert algae effectively into biofuel! Sea-Legs is proud to be a participant in the search for the next step in energy innovation.
Sampling Locations and Schedule
In the map below, you can see where we took our water samples. We took our samples in a grid with about one nautical mile between points. The number on the red dot shows the order we took the samples in. You can click a sample site to see when it was taken and what its coordinates were.
NAABB is funded by the U.S. Department of Energy.
More info on algal strain isolation >>
Special thanks to Sea-Legs graduate and assistant Isaac Davis for creating the sampling map and table of locations.

Pope Family Garden dedicated at NGMCBy Staff GAINESVILLE - Visitors at Northeast Georgia Medical Center (NGMC) can now find respite in the Pope Family Garden, which was dedicated Monday.
The therapeutic space was made possible through a gift to The Medical Center Foundation by Richard and Lona Pope and their family given to honor their familys continued commitment to volunteerism for the benefit of patients, families and staff at NGMC, and in memory of the late Ralph and Ocie Pope. The garden is located in the South Tower off the main lobby of the Women & Childrens Pavilion. The outdoor reprieve is available for expectant parents, siblings and family awaiting the arrival of a newborn child. In addition, it is visible to cancer patients receiving chemotherapy in the Infusion Center. Since 1950, the Ralph and Ocie Pope family has had a connection to the medical community in Gainesville. The late Ralph and Miss Ocie, as she was affectionately known, gave of their time, talents and resources through volunteerism. Ralph served on the Hospital Authority of Gainesville and Hall County, and Miss Ocie was the founder of the Hall School of Nursing, which later became Brenau University Nursing School. She also served as Interim Administrator of the hospital and was instrumental in founding The Medical Center Auxiliary, where their only son, Richard, continued his mothers legacy by serving as treasurer. Today, the tradition of service continues with Richard and Lonas commitment as lifetime members of the Auxiliary and trustees of The Medical Center Foundation. Miss Ocie and Mr. Ralph Pope were very service-minded, says Jim Moore, chairman of The Medical Center Foundation. They set a high standard, and Richard, Lona and their family are building on their legacy by the examples they are setting for their children and grandchildren through their continued support of NGMC as well as the community. The Ocie Rich Pope Building on the medical center campus is named for her long-time service, leadership and practice of outstanding nursing care, says Nancy Colston, executive director of The Medical Center Foundation. To this day, nurses once mentored by Miss Ocie express how thankful they are for her leadership and willingness to take them under her wing. The Pope Family is a large part of the hospitals heritage, and Northeast Georgia Health System is the great organization it is today because of those who served before us. We are grateful for Richard and Lonas generosity to establish a wonderful therapeutic space that would not otherwise be possible. They have created a special legacy that will serve patients, their families and staff for generations to come. To learn more about The Pope Family Garden or The Medical Center Foundation, please call 770-219-8099 or visit www.TheMedicalCenterFoundation.org.
