Another key, as Kerri herself would say someday, is whether we can forgive the seemingly unforgivable.

Mr. Raspberry Jam
this wiki
- "No, he ain't the Mr. Raspberry Jam I knew and loved."
- ―Floyd
Mr. Raspberry Jam is a stuffed teddy bear owned initially by Floyd Hebert, and later on by Trevor Philips. He is first seen in the mission Scouting the Port. Once the player passes the mission, the player can interact with him in the Floyd's Apartment safehouse.
During the time Trevor lives on Floyd's Apartment, it's revealed that Trevor savagely defiled the stuffed toy several times, including tearing out an eye and pulling out some of its stuffing, much to the dismay of Floyd.
After the mission Hang Ten, Mr. Raspberry Jam is now in Trevor's hands. He is able to be placed on the front grille of Trevor's Bodhi at Los Santos Customs (if no mods are done to the Bodhi, he is placed behind the default grille automatically). In the end, Mr. Raspberry Jam is left severely abused and acts as a vehicle modification instead of a regular toy.
If Franklin Clinton and Michael De Santa kill Trevor in Something Sensible, Mr. Rasberry Jam will die along with Trevor in the explosion, provided he's been installed to the truck.
- There a stuffed bear similar to Mr. Raspberry Jam in Tracey's bedroom but with a blue ribbon instead of a red one.
- When "playing" with Mr. Raspberry Jam as Trevor, all Trevor will do is lift it up, say something to it, and put it back down, however there are several different animations that go with this.
- The player can keep Mr. Raspberry Jam in the truck if he/she doesn't change the default front bumper. Also, Mr. Raspberry Jam can be kept even if the front bumper is detached.

Xikar Round Digital Hygrometer Reviews [view details]
Give us YOUR review!Showing 11 through 13 of 13 reviews
"Worked good for 1 year."
This hygrometer worked fairly good for about a year. I had to change the battery, which is no big deal. The numbers would go bonkers now and then and I would have to recalibrate the thing. Probably 10 times. Then it got tossed.
Mike in Wisconsin March 10, 2010
"Excellent piece"
Great little hygrometer/thermometer, easy to use. I love the magnetic attachment. So accurate I used it to calibrate my analog ones. I'd highly recommend this piece, it's a great value!
DFC in Beaufort, SC March 14, 2009
"Great price, good little hygrometer"
Very small, easy to place and gives you all you need. The display is big and easy to read, but can get a little hard to see in low light. Easy to calibrate and use!

TribLIVE Sports Videos
DES MOINES, Iowa — Rande Stottlemyer's trip to the NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships may well have been his final one at Pitt.
Stottlemyer said he is not sure if he will return for a 35th season as the Panthers' head coach.
"You never want to stay too long," said Stottlemyer, who was a three-time All-American at Pitt before becoming its head coach. "I'm a short timer."
That hasn't exactly been a secret. Associate head coach Jason Peters is Pitt's head coach-in-waiting, and assistant coach Matt Kocher is also slated to move up after Stottlemyer retires.
Stottlemyer, who has 305 dual-meet victories and has guided Pitt to the past three Eastern Wrestling League titles, has tried to make the eventual transition as smooth as possible.
He stayed in the background this season, ceding more coaching duties to Peters and Kocher, a 2007 All-American at Pitt.
Stottlemyer said he will make a decision on his future sooner rather than later. If he leaves after distinguishing himself for four decades in the program, Stottlemyer will do so having coached a pair of All-Americans in 197-pounder Matt Wilps (third at the NCAA Championships) and 285-pounder Zac Thomusseit (fifth).
"The guys did a great job," Stottlemyer said of his wrestlers at the NCAA tournament. "We've been developing a culture and they've added to it."
The gold standard
Kyle Dakes writes down his goals on a daily basis, and the Cornell senior will focus on some new ones after becoming the first wrestler to win four national championships in four different weight classes.
"The college wrestling book I finished it," Dakes said after capping his incomparable career Saturday night with a 5-4 win over Penn State's David Taylor in the 165-pound championship match.
Dakes will turn his attention to the Olympics with the goal of winning a gold medal in 2016 and then repeating the feat in 2020 — assuming the worldwide wrestling body is able to keep the sport in the Olympics despite an International Olympics Committee recommendation to drop it after 2016.
On the key to winning national titles at 141, 149, 157 and 165 pounds, Dakes said, "My ability to adapt really, really helped me accomplish that."
Almost a champion
Mitchell Port gave Edinboro a national runner-up for the second time in as many years, and the redshirt sophomore nearly upset unbeaten Kendric Maple of Oklahoma in the 141-pound championship bout.
Maple rode an early takedown to a 4-3 win and perfect season. Port, however, had Maple on the defensive in the third period. He won a point after two stalling penalties were called on the Oklahoma redshirt junior to tie the match, but Maple's advantage in riding time gave him the one-point victory.
Port and A.J. Schopp (fourth place at 133 pounds) led Edinboro to a 14th-place finish. The Fighting Scots scored 37.5 points and turned in their best showing in the tournament since finishing sixth in 2009.

I was truly expecting a collection of funny stories that chronicled the life of this very funny man. Instead I felt the book was a dry account about a person who made it big because of the company he kept. It was endearing to read about his wife and parents but not much more. The whole read seemed to be done without much thought or organization. For someone who made so many laugh, I hardly cracked a smile.

A Frenchman, who burned his life savings to a cinder before swallowing two bottles of pills, is facing life with an empty bank account after neighbours foiled his suicide attempt.
The man, in his forties, has been recovering in a psychiatric hospital since late October when neighbours in the south-western town of Bordeaux saw smoke coming from his house and called the emergency services, the daily Liberation reported yesterday.
The man, who lived alone, had cleared out his bank balance of �240,000 ($396,200) and set fire to the pile of 500 euro notes in his bath before swallowing the pills, hoping to leave nothing behind after his death.
However, he was now eager to start a new life, his lawyer Dominique Remy told the newspaper.
"He is not dangerous. It's just that he's destroyed all his worth," the lawyer said.

DGHA Program Budget and Extramural Management: Heather B. Pumphrey, MA
Heather B. Pumphrey, began working with CDC as a Presidential Management Intern (PMI) in 1999 and has served in a variety of capacities including: Public Health Analyst with the National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention and Center for Global Heath; Grants Management Specialist with the Procurement and Grants Office; and Budget Analyst with the Financial Management Office. She describes her position as the Deputy Branch Chief for DGHA's HIV Prevention Branch as particularly exciting. This position afforded her the opportunity to grow professionally and personally. Exposure to and responsibility for the programmatic side of CDC's work was enlightening to Heather.
She earned an undergraduate degree in Social Work from the University of Georgia in Athens, Georgia and a Master of Arts in Public Administration from Sul Ross State University in Alpine, Texas. She is a life-long Georgia Bulldogs fan and thoroughly enjoys college football season every year.
Heather's philosophy about work is quite simple and is borrowed from an anonymous quote on Facebook: "The one who says it cannot be done should never interrupt the one who is doing it."

Every year, 1,000 Americans die because they cannot find a matching bone marrow donor. Minorities are hit especially hard. Common sense suggests that offering modest incentives to attract more bone marrow donors would be worth pursuing, but federal law makes that a felony punishable by up to five years in prison.

Two weeks after he shot off a combative letter to Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray saying he won't meet him unless called, senior Sena leader Manohar Joshi visited the Thackeray residence, 'Matoshree', on Sunday.
"He said he wanted to hold some political discussions with Uddhav ji, but could not do so due to Diwali rush. He has said that he will revisit Matoshree to have a lengthy discussion. He left after giving Diwali wishes to Uddhav ji," sources present at Matoshree said.
Recently, a clear rift between the two came out in the open when Mr. Joshi criticised the Sena chief indirectly on a public platform after being denied a ticket for the 2014 parliamentary election. He was later dropped by the party from the joint poll committee of the Sena and the Bharatiya Janata Party.
Speculations were rife regarding the end of road for Mr. Joshi when he was heckled by Shiv Sainiks at the party's famous Dasara rally recently.
It is not clear if Mr Thackeray agreed on Sunday to grant Mr. Joshi audience regarding his grievances.
Athawale visits Uddhav
Meanwhile, Republican Party of India (RPI) leader Ramdas Athawale too called on the Sena chief on Sunday. He sought a Rajya Sabha seat from him.
"Uddhav Thackeray accepted that a Rajya Sabha seat should be given to Mr. Athawale. He has promised that even if the Sena fails to give him a seat in Maharashtra, they will talk to the BJP for granting a seat from outside the State," sources close to Mr. Athawale told The Hindu.

Hi and hello!
I'm back with something new to talk about.
I'm gonna get my self in shape.
I wish I had a ton more enthusiasm about it,
but I know this won't be a cake walk.
So I found myself a coach, Amy P and I signed up for the 21day fix beach body program.
(Click either of these links to meet Amy or order the 21 day fix deal I got)
Welp the box arrived a few days ago and I'm finally opening it.
Not pictured is the big bag of shakeology shake mix. This is the basic plan.
Eat all your meals from these containers and use the included work out videos.
I read through all the material and I have to start by figuring out how many of each container I can eat.
They have provided a formula to figure out your calorie intake.
I multiply my weight (157 X 11= 1,727)
which gives me my Caloric Baseline.
Then I add (1,727+400= 2,127)
that gives me my Caloric Need.
Then I subtract (2,127-750 = 1,377) to get my Calorie Target.
So my number is 1,377!
I'm ready to eat!
I get
3 Green
2 Fruit
4 Red
2 Yellow
1 Blue
1 Orange
2 Tsp oil/nut or seed butter
I still have to get a menu together, grocery shop, cook and start Exercising.
This is already feeling like it's going to be a lot of work, but I'm not complaining-not yet!
Stay tuned and if your interested in checking out the 21 Day fix here's a video.

Quote: Time for takeoff
"There's just something special here and you've got so many young guys who are developing so fast. Something beautiful can take place. We can take this momentum all the way through the offseason into next year."
— Jets linebacker Demario Davis on his hopes for 2014

It would be nice to see Davis develop along with everyone else. He was brutal at times this year. Competent at others. I was excited by him when he came out of school, but he's nowhere near where I thought he'd be by now. He filled Scott's position, but never replaced him.
I hope he learns how to cover. It would seem that the short passing game was so effective against the Jets all season because of our weakness in coverage at LB. At least in part. I view next year as make or break for Davis.

Cuarto Dominio is the expression of 2 very small and different lots in the San Carlos vineyard, at 900 meters over sea level. The difference between these 2 parcels basically comes from the soil composition. Lot A with only 2 Hectares has 70% sand, 15% lime and 15% clay while Lot B with a tiny dimension of 1.4 hectares has 90% sand, 10% lime and a big percentage of surface stones. While Lot A lends ripe plum and chocolate flavours, a very soft and supple mouthfeel with excellent structure and length, Lot B offers more blackberry fruit with a slight earthy mineral tone and notes of spicy black pepper, exceptional concentration and explosive floral aromatic.
Dense purple in colour with bright brick red highlights. Powerfully aromatic, showing concentrated stone fruit aromas such as plums and prunes with a hint of spicy oak. The palate is medium to full bodied with a stylish balance between dense black fruit flavours, tightly knit fine grained tannin and judicious use of oak. Finishes firm and grippy - perfect for drinking with red meat!
Ruby red colour. Powerful but elegant flavours with plumy and blackberry hints. Butterscotch and a slight spiciness is integrated by the subtle notes of vanilla that come from the oak aging. A full bodied wine with a voluptuous mid-palate and a long finish.
It shows off a very refined style, both in the nose and in the mouth. Its careful oak cask ageing gives the wine an ultimate dimension that turns it into an irresistible one. A full bodied wine, with complex structure and surprising notes of red berries, eucalyptus, spice and black pepper. After a year in the bottle, it becomes more unctuous in character, intense and concentrated.
A nose that walks the line between floral and rich earthy aromas, incorporating scents of prunes and later dark black cherry as the wine opens up. In the mouth the wine is huge, brooding and deep with flavours of cassis and black cherry.
Deep ruby colour with aromas of currants and candied peel. Powerful, but well integrated, tannins, fresh minerality and lively Assam and redcurrant notes. Clean and modern.
Black fruit and hints of spice with mocha on the nose, the palate has soft and silky tannins with rich black fruit, good concentration and a long fruity finish.
La Mascota Malbec shows an intense purple red colour with ruby hues. Aromas of black fruits, jam and vanilla, with a subtle licorice touch. Sweet and full bodied tannins, with a long and pleasant finish.
Black cherry with vanilla and mocha aromas with a full and rich mouthfeel with ripe, silky tannins.
An attractive purplish red colour with intense notes of dried fruit such as prunes and figs combined with hints of vanilla and toasted bread thanks to the ageing in oak. It has a good structure in the mouth, long and well rounded and very powerful.

Kepler: Many Red Dwarfs Have Earth-SIzed Planets Too 132
from the prepare-for-invasion dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
Not to nerd out but wouldn't that make it Vulcan?
One attractive feature of red dwarf stars, it would seem to me, is that they have much longer lifetimes than sun-like stars. More time for complex life to evolve!
On the other hand, being (necessarily, due to temperature issues) much closer to their star, these planets are likely to be tidally locked, which is *not* a good thing for complex life trying to evolve.
The summary is a bit difficult to interpret. For example, it seems like they're reporting percentages only considering red dwarf stars with planets, and then extrapolating to red dwarf stars (undetermined with/without planets). Perhaps this explains how they got a 6% estimate when 3/95 is much closer to 3%. With a 3/95 proportion of "earth-like planets" to "no earth-like planets" the 95% confidence interval for the probability of having an "earth-like" planet around a red dwarf (with planets?) is 0.66% to 8.95%. The only way to actually determine the closest "earth-like" planet orbiting a red dwarf would be to actually examine each red dwarf in order of nearness. Statistics always have uncertainties, and it would be awesome if those uncertainties were reported along with the "most likely" or "best guess" at the true value. I suppose it's too confusing for most.
In case you want to play with the confidence intervals:
Vulcan circles a red dwarf? Wikipedia says nothing about the planet or its star, just about the Vulcans themselves. I was thinking Krypton, even though I haven't read a Superman comic since I was 7 or 8; it orbits a red star.
I'm always amused by "only n light years away" in every story about a newly-found planet. Adams was right. "Space is big. I mean really big. You think it's a long way to the chemist..." the Voyagers have been traveling for 40 years and still haven't gotten past the heliopause. Even Adams was understating the vast distances between stars, try as he might to impress how big space is. Getting to Vulcan/Krypton is indeed infinitely improbable, at least for the next few hundred years and maybe never.
Depressing, isn't it?
Tidal locking by itself is not a fatal problem. For example, it has been estimated that if Earth were tidally locked, the night side temperature would be fairly frosty bottoming out at -33 C but that's nowhere near cold enough to cause the atmosphere to freeze out. An atmosphere anywhere above 10% of Earth's is sufficient to transfer heat to the night side. Water ice accumulation would not be a problem either, since the oceans would be free to flow underneath an ice sheet.
However, tidal heating could be a problem for such a close orbit. Planetary orbits don't start out near-perfectly circular, there's a period of time during which the orbit of a planet is eccentric. This induces a strongly variable tidal force that will heat up the planet and burn off any volatiles like water. You would have to introduce water (e.g. by comet impacts) after the orbit has settled at low eccentricity.
That was the old theory. Currently, IIUC, it is only believed to apply if there is no atmosphere. If there is an atmosphere, its circulation redistributes the heat...though slowly enough that there is, indeed, a huge difference in temperatures between the day side and the night side. Naturally, exact details depend on the composition of the atmosphere. (If Venus were tidally locked, it wouldn't change much of anything.)

"The big question is whether this is a special case or whether it's the tip of the iceberg," says Haussler, who is at the University of California, Santa Cruz. A report on the research is published in the May 4, 2006, issue of the journal Nature.
Haussler and his colleagues were led to the discovery through their work on what they call "ultraconserved elements" -- segments of DNA hundreds of nucleotides long that are almost exactly the same in a wide variety of vertebrate organisms. Haussler and postdoctoral fellow Gill Bejerano discovered the ultraconserved elements in 2003, and since then they have been trying to figure out how they arose and what function they serve.
One ultraconserved element in particular caught their eye. "We were very interested in this sequence, because it had a number of copies elsewhere in the genome," says Bejerano, who is the first author of the study. Close copies of the sequence were ubiquitous in amphibians, birds, and mammals, indicating that it served an important function. "We found it in every species for which we have genomes, from frogs to humans," says Bejerano.
Comparing the sequence to other species also turned up a big surprise. When the researchers compared the human ultraconserved element to all the DNA sequences in the public database GenBank, the closest match was to DNA from the coelacanth -- an ancient fish thought to have gone extinct millions of years ago until a live specimen was caught in 1938 off the east coast of South Africa. The coelacanth is a descendant of the ancient marine organism that gave rise to the terrestrial vertebrates more than 360 million years ago. Humans are therefore separated from the coelacanth by hundreds of millions of years of evolution, yet the two organisms still share critical DNA sequences.
In the coelacanth, the ultraconserved segments were produced by a retroposon known as a short interspersed repetitive element, or SINE, which is a piece of DNA that can make copies of itself and insert those copies elsewhere in an organism's genome. Haussler and his colleagues called this SINE the LF-SINE, where LF stands for lobe-finned fishes--the group of fishes that gave rise to both the coelacanth and terrestrial vertebrates.
The LF-SINE was very active in the evolutionary lineage leading to the terrestrial vertebrates, but much less active after animals moved onto land. Humans have 245 recognizable copies of the LF-SINE, most or all of which probably were in place before the origins of the mammals. But in the lineage leading to the coelacanth, the LF-SINE remained active, so that the coelacanth genome is now estimated to contain hundreds of thousands of copies of the sequence.
The close copies of the ultraconserved element scattered around vertebrate genomes have changed less than would be expected over evolutionary time, indicating that they are functionally important. But relatively few of the copies contain parts that code for proteins, which suggests they instead are helping to regulate when genes are turned on and off. Furthermore, when Bejerano analyzed the locations of the copies, he found that they tended to be near genes that control the development of the brain.
Haussler and his colleagues then looked at a particular example -- a copy of the ultraconserved element that is near a gene called Islet 1 (ISL1). ISL1 produces a protein that helps control the growth and differentiation of motor neurons. In the laboratory of Edward Rubin at the University of California, Berkeley, postdoctoral fellow Nadav Ahituv combined the human version of the LF-SINE sequence with a "reporter" gene that would produce an easily recognizable protein if the LF-SINE were serving as its on-off switch. He then injected the resulting DNA into the nuclei of fertilized mouse eggs. Eleven days later, he examined the mouse embryos to see whether and where the reporter gene was switched on. Sure enough, the gene was active in the embryos' developing nervous systems, as would be expected if the LF-SINE copy were regulating the activity of ISL1.
The discoverer of mobile DNA elements, Barbara McClintock, suggested in 1950 that they might play a role in the regulation of genes -- a hypothesis that was more fully developed by Roy Britten and Eric Davidson in about 1970, when it was discovered that more than half of the human genome consists of remnants of mobile elements. But the mechanisms underlying this process remained obscure. Haussler's work provides direct evidence that even when they land at some distance from a gene, mobile elements like SINEs can be adapted to serve as regulatory elements that have powerful effects in their new locations. "When you activate a gene in a new context," Bejerano points out, "you get processes that did not occur before."
Bejerano and Haussler's results support the hypothesis that the movement of retroposons can generate evolutionary experiments by adding new regulatory modules to genes. Most of these experiments will have no effects or will harm an organism. But every once in a while, the movement of a regulatory element will give an organism an evolutionary advantage. "And to the extent that [such changes] improve the fitness of an organism," says Haussler, "they eventually will become fixed in a population."
"This suggests a lot of exciting evolutionary avenues," says Haussler, "but we don't yet know how prevalent this kind of evolution is." Other labs have found similar examples of mobile elements that have changed the regulation of genes, and Haussler expects the number of reports to grow. "It's a very exciting time to be looking at the human genome, because there's an enormous amount of DNA that we know is important, but we don't yet know what it's doing."

Ohio-based buyer is likely to dismantle the mill.
Canadian papermaker Domtar Corp. has sold its idled paper mill in Port Edwards, Wis., to Ohio-based DMI Acquisitions LLC. DMI Acquisitions is described in a Domtar news release as the Columbus, Ohio-based real estate investment and development division of metals recycling company DMI Metals Inc.
The Port Edwards mill has been closed since 2008. The sale includes all the remaining assets on the site, but does not include the adjacent hydroelectric facilities on the Wisconsin River that Domtar will continue to own and operate.
"Domtar has been working diligently with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and other parties for several years to prepare the site and find the right purchaser for the Port Edwards assets," says Mark Bessette, general manager of Domtar's Nekoosa, Wis., mill. "We are pleased that DMI will bring new economic activity to the site, for the benefit of the community."
"DMI believes that the 192-acre Port Edwards mill site, with its extensive rail facilities, is uniquely positioned for new warehouse and light manufacturing opportunities, particularly in the energy, agricultural and wood products markets," says DMI President DaMenga Weaver.
DMI began around 10 years ago and is a broker and recycler of ferrous and nonferrous metals. Michelle Moore, a spokeswoman for DMI, says the acquisition of Domtar's buildings is the company's first foray into the real estate market. "DMI wanted to diversify [into] the real estate business," says Moore. "We looked for three years, and this is our first redevelopment project."
The site includes a 900,000 square-foot production facility; 280,000 square feet of warehouse space; 141,000 square feet of office space and a 23,000 square-foot data center.
"We are working with the village [of Port Edwards]," says Moore. "We are doing a lot of listening right now," she adds.
"With the closure of the Domtar paper mill in Port Edwards, the Village Board and staff has worked tirelessly on a community redevelopment plan," the village government says on its website. "With a focus on existing infrastructure, labor and compatibility, Port Edwards has positioned itself to facilitate a wide variety of commercial, residential and industrial developments," says the board.

10 Reasons To Love Fresh Hop Beer Season
Green Pig Fresh Hop Ale
Coalition Brewing in Portland, Ore.
Oh, to catch a $4 showing of Pacific Rim at the Laurelhurst Theater a block away while sipping a tumbler full of this bad boy.
Coalition's Green Pig embodies all the best parts about experimenting with fresh hops in a limited timeframe. Loaded more than 100 pounds of Cascade hops fresh from Crosby Hop Farm in Woodburn, Ore., and brewed in a tiny 10-barrel facility across from its single-car-garage-sized pub, Green Pig has a pleasantly sweet hop aroma with relatively moderate residual bitterness. This year, Coalition brewed up two batches using early harvest and late harvest hops, but at least one still holds onto its traditionally understated citrus flavor and distinctly floral scent.
It's a rare opportunity to call a hop laden pale ale or IPA refreshing, but Green Pig has a habit of providing it every year around this time.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

A lot vs. Alot: 9 Grammatical Pitfalls
also sanserif, 1830, from French sans "without" (see sans) + English serif, from earlier ceref, perhaps from Dutch schreef "a line, a stroke," related to schrijven "to write," from Latin scribere (see script (n.)).
in printing, a style of roman letter stripped of its serif-i.e., such embellishments as the vertical line at the end of the top right and lower left curved segments of the letter "s," the base line on which the lowercase "n," "m," and "l" rest, etc. Though the concept of such a type has challenged recent designers, the face itself is used largely for display purposes, in which continuous reading is not a requirement. Inconclusive tests appear to indicate that the roman face is easier to read with serifs than without them. It has been suggested, again inconclusively, that the sans serif type suffers in that its characters, when printed, tend somehow to stand out as individual letters rather than as parts of words

Jose P. Garcia, MD, is a board-certified cardiac surgeon at Mass General, and a member of the Corrigan Minehan Heart Center and the Transplant Center. He specializes in heart/lung transplants, and is a professor of surgery at Harvard Medical School.
BiographyJose P. Garcia, MD, graduated with honors from the University of Texas at Austin and received his Medical Degree at Harvard Medical School. After extensive training at both Brigham and Women?s Hospital and Boston Children?s Hospital he joined Mass General in 2013 where he specializes in heart/lung transplants.
Since completing training at Brigham & Women?s Hospital, the focus of Dr. Garcia's career has been on the surgical treatment of heart failure. During his tenure at Temple University Hospital, he performed more than 100 heart transplants and 100 ventricular assist device implantations. At Montefiore Hospital, Dr. Garcia initiated a heart transplant and ventricular assist device program that remains active and successful to date. At the University of Maryland, Dr. Garcia improved heart transplant outcomes for one-year survival to over 90%, while nearly doubling the size of the lung transplant program.
Over the past 14 years, Dr. Garcia had continued to be on the forefront of clinical innovation in end-stage heart disease, and has been involved in almost every major ventricular assist device trial. In recent years, he has expanded his interests to include acute-lung injury and end-stage lung disease.
Although the use of ECMO for both recovery and as a bridge to transplantation is certainly not a new idea, Dr. Garcia has made several innovated advancements in its application, including Ambulatory ECMO, and the use of ECMO with an atrial septostomy. Additionally, he has been involved in ex-vivo lung perfusion for lung transplantation.
Dr. Garcia is the surgical director of the Cardiothoracic Transplantation and Artificial Heart and Lung Program at Mass General, where he regularly leads teams of other surgeons in successful heart/lung transplant surgeries.
ResearchOver the past 14 years, Dr. Garcia has continued to be on the forefront of clinical innovation in end-stage heart disease, and has been involved in almost every major ventricular assist device trial. In recent years, he has expanded his interests to include acute-lung injury and end-stage lung disease.
Experts from the Massachusetts General Hospital Institute for Heart, Vascular and Stroke Care present insights and opinions on methods for treating refractory heart failure, genetically determined arrhythmias and atrial fibrillation in an integrated, multispecialty program.
36-year-old Connecticut resident Benard Basant got his life back when he underwent the MGH's first combined heart-lung transplant surgery.
The MGH has become the first hospital in New England to successfully perform what's being called a "lung-in-a-box" transplant.
Lacy Neff, a radio broadcaster from West Virginia, recently underwent a heart transplant as part of his treatment plan for amyloidosis, a rare disease that occurs when amyloid proteins accumulate in the organs. The MGH is one of only seven hospitals in the United States studying cardiac amyloid transplants – and the only one in the Northeast.
Experts from the Massachusetts General Hospital Institute for Heart, Vascular and Stroke Care present their experience and provide a practical guide to clinical decision making for patients with heart failure, pulmonary embolism and cardiogenic stroke.

GS News - Snoop Dogg in Call of Duty; Sony Sells $49m Square Enix Stake
Square-Enix defends DRM, Sony drops their 9.52 MILLION shares in the Final Fantasy company, and $3 will get you Snoop Dogg in Call of Duty: Ghosts!
Did you enjoy this video?
Sign In to UpvoteJoin Jess McDonell every weekday for a punchy wrap-up of the biggest news to come out of video games!
Schedule: weekly
Host: Jess McDonell
Crew: Edmond Tran
I'd personally rather have Jess shout post-kill praise than Snoop.
Jess-isms > Snoop-isms.
DRM treats customers like criminals, and I will NEVER give a dime to anyone who does so. Think about how frequently we hear "this should be free" these days. Pirates don't even say that, they've already bootlegged it. Look at the success of Kickstarter, clearly people will pay if the product is worthy. The issue isn't piracy, it's that many companies want to profit from shovelware and lazy sequels rather than make games worth buying.
DRM is a hassle for costumers who actually buy games and people who want to play it for free will do so anyway, DRM or not, can't believe publishers haven't figured that one out by now
We need Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill
Nothing like Batman giving us instructions and Joker taunting us when we're losing!
I'm looking forward to tomorrow's GS News, Chris Watters is such an amazing host. He should get his own Call of Duty DLC :D
Have fantastic holidays, Jess, eat lots of chocolate eggs and bunnies! More importantly, take the time to play the games you enjoy :)
"it's hip and hood" yea snoop, let me know how hip/hood it is when you've been to afghan or Iraq.
now, voice over D.I. from FMJ, now that makes sense
There should be a DLC where it'd be Jess herself calling the shots with quotes like :"PANDA AMAZING" when on a killing spree or "BALLS BALLS BALLS!!!" when you get killed...
I don't like how DRM prevents me from loaning e-books, but until they come up with a better way to fight piracy it's here to stay.
My thoughts on DRM: It gets hacked. Usually quite easily and quite quickly. So absolutely NO piracy is avoided but now the publishers have incurred extra development costs into dedicating resources into DRM, which get passed down to their customers. Moreover, their legitimate customers who actually paid for the product now have to deal with this DRM while those with illegitimately obtained copies actually get the better user experience overall. Seems like a completely flawed system to me created mostly to appease the irrational fears of shareholders with no real benefits.
Other gaming news today:
Trials Fusion was released.
Broken Sword 5 Episode 2 was released.
And I finished ME3 with the extended ending cut and I loved it.... :P
I don't know what's so "hood" about playing call of duty but whatever... If you want some gansta rappa, turned pop-artist, turned reggae artist, turned actor do voices for your kills more power to ya.
Man, how the times change people... sometimes for the worst. :/ *looks at Kanye*
@dani_i89 "I upgrade RPG for make dead enemies of glorious nation of Kazakhstan!"
Yeah, that would be awesome.
@dani_i89 Digital Rights Management, like a game requires you to be online in order to be able to play non-multiplayer modes.
@Silv3rSt0rm82 Well that's what mods are for. PC master race. 10 GB download of uncompressed audio.
@aci808 I wouldn't mind if Jess accidentally smothered you. (wait, did I type that? But thats not the kind of thing that you comment, darn it)
I also finished replaying ME3 a few days ago and the revised ending cut scene does make more sense. Still somewhat of a bummer your character has to die, Fallout 3 people got upset about it and they actually changed the ending.
Thanks! I binged and see one of the endings (destroying machines) lets Shepherd live now. I'll give that a try.

Worst episode so far, I gave it a 3. I should mark it higher for Alto's backstory and some Sheryl's cute scenes, but some potential negative-ness on Sheryl and too much screen-time for Ranka-is-simply-the-same-childish-Ranka basically kill my high hope from last episode and the all my positive opinions from this episode (I guess that two-week-long wait added some fuel in it).
One thing puts a smile on my mouth is that "bitch" comments are back (Long time no see, my old friends). I agree with what Westlo said in ep10 thread those comments only make me feel glad that I'm a Sheryl fan. I haven't had time to check other places like those blogs some Ranka fans have mentioned, maybe I will go see them later. OK, drop these unrelated stuff, little more I'd consider I'm attacking Ranka fans on personal basis. So move to some my random opinions to this episode. As for Alto, the backstory actually doesn't add much to what we have already known. It confirms that Alto is not a runaway, but also disowned. However, there is a comment from his step-brother got my interest. I can't explicitly recite that line, but it sounds like "Are dreams dreams only because they are not achievable? Do people pursue their dreams recklessly only because they can't really reach to them?" This make me start to wonder how much Alto's want of flying is from his instinct and how much is from unsatification. If flying is more a symbol of freedom which he doesn't feel he has ever since he is still a child. As for Sheryl, I was a little puzzled why she has done sth in this episode. It took me a lot time to make some sense of her doings in this episode. Click the spoiler tag to see my interpretation of Sheryl's actions if you are a Sheryl fan or neutral, but for Ranka fans, please move on, this is a nonsense so don't waste your time on it. Spoiler:

Read Xellos-_^'s title. Wow, it's already the time? I followed Saimoe last year but didn't cast a single vote because voting is too troublesome. I guess I'll vote exclusively Sheryl this time(maybe Fate from Nanoha and Addillisia from Rental Magica as well if I can get used to the voting procedure), but as it holds on 2ch, no high hope for Sheryl because she is not real a moe type by general standard.

Sheryl - Hey Alto, do you like this ship? Alto - I hate it I don't like city ships. Sheryl - Why? Alto - There's no sky here. You can tell by her voice she knew she hit a home run with this offer, gotta love how Alto's attitude was like "I'm not going to care what she gives me because she'll probably be fucking with me like usual" and when he heard what the present was his tough exterior cracked. He was very enthusiastic at the end of the episode as well. First thing I thought of when someone posted the preview pics a few days ago. I was hoping for Alto to flash her a message but he's actually going with her which is even better. |

I do not think Grace is the one speaking to Leon at the end. She is probably just spying on Leon's convo with someone else. The voice Leon speaks to matches with the person that hands him the purple crystal from 11:00 to 12:00 in episode 10... (the tomboy with the short hair and glasses.)

Considering the advanced technology we have seen throughout Frontier and how Galaxy is suppose to be much more advanced it's not outside the realms of possibility that Grace was speaking through a proxy or even controlling that person who met Leon. Why would she go herself when Leon would instantly recognize her as the manager of Sheryl Nome? The voice fits Inoue Kikuko as well.

I have to admit, I appreciated RankaxAlto more after Alto got closer to Sheryl. With Sheryl always stealing Alto, Ranka's moments with Alto become more appreciable. The boring RxA development spicens up with Sheryl around---like having Masako from Ghost Hunt. Quote:

On the other hand, the voice reminded me of Toyoguchi Megumi (Kuran Klan), too. Zentradi? I think we're getting indications that Alto, while he did go with Sheryl, went for the chance to fly in open atmosphere, not for Sheryl. When Sheryl thanked him for coming, his head was totally somewhere else, and it disappointed her. But I'm not sure she is anything but playing with him. Maybe I'm wrong, but to me she seems proud and basically uncaring about others. That scene when she arrived on Frontier and was so mad about fans getting backstage seemed to me like laying the baseline of her character. Just as her proud "Because I'm Sheryl" does. She wants to be Ranka's patron, in a way, but she also wants to take her man. An enjoyable person, but maybe not a nice person. My view of her character makes it possible for me to think that she is the voice, although I doubt that can be true. I can't easily imagine that is Endou Aya's voice, so deep. But I don't dislike her. Her laugh at around 4:35 was strong and endearing at the same time. Both deep and fun.

My initial reaction to this episode is that it was really well done. I like this episode a lot because it fleshed out a lot of the minor characters a bit more and answered some of the plot mysteries. The music seemed to have done a good job and setting the tones for most of the scenes.
As for the comments that there was too much Ranka screen time, I would have to disagree and say that this episode was actually more Alto-oriented. Truthfully, the time spent on Ranka's character development was dwarfed by Alto's development and the plot movements. Last edited by cerrian; 2008-06-21 at 02:46. Reason: grammer |
