Seeing as I didn't get into the Beta, just got a quick question for anyone who knows.
If I have two WAV files for, say, the kick drum (audio L and R), would they have to be made into a stereo file for use in a single track in Reaper, or will it be ok to use two seperate tracks for both L and R.
Also is there anything which can be done in Reaper to prepare for the software to be realsed (midi mapping etc?) or can everything only be started once the programs are all up and running?

SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED highlighted episodes for January
The standouts this month include a Mornings theme and a trio of pop music cut-ups. As 2009 began, I was also compelled to make a linkable list to not only the 40+ SAR Q&As posted in 2008, but also an alphabetized list of every artist weve featured on our front page, since 2006. Check it out HERE.
Episode 136 features over a dozen tracks sampling from sources which have something to do with the first few hours of the day. Check it out HERE. Artists such as Lenlow, Negativland and the Evolution Control Committee weigh in on subjects such as toast, doughnuts, even chocolate cake for breakfast. Might be something good to save for tomorrows AM commute
An especially diverse offering can be found in Episode 222, the best part being, in my opinion, a section featuring three tracks by DJ Earworm, Norwegian Recycling and Pop Chop. Each artist approaches the art of manipulating a stack of very recognizable pop songs in very unique ways. Check it out HERE.
Be sure to check out next weeks special episode, as we celebrate our first ten years on the air. The anniversary is officially celebrated on January 27, 2009, but Ill be uploading the Birthday episode the previous Sunday (1/25) and announcing a special project, in conjunction with our friends here at mnartists.org. Stay tuned!
Thanks for listening,

Medical School Enrollment Forecast Tempered by Residency Concerns
Medical schools will boost enrollment 30% by 2017 to ease the nation's physician shortage, but that won't do much good if the federal government won't provide funding to expand residency slots, a new survey of the nation's medical school deans finds.
"Our medical schools have fulfilled their commitment toward taking the first step in addressing the physician shortage," says Christiane Mitchell, director of federal affairs for the Association of American Medical Schools. "Now we have to ask Congress to help us take the second step to make sure all of those new medical school graduates have a residency training position."
The 9th annual Medical School Enrollment Survey from the AAMC's Center for Workforce Studies found that first-year medical school enrollment is projected to reach 21,434 in 2017-18—a 30% increase above first-year enrollment in 2002-03, the baseline year used to calculate the enrollment increases that the AAMC called for in 2006.
In the survey, however, 40% of the medical school deans expressed "major concern" about enrollment growth outpacing growth in the number of available residency training positions. The 2013 annual match of medical school graduates with residency slots was only the second time there were more unmatched U.S. seniors than unfilled positions; the first time was 2010.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Harry Carey Jr., a character actor who starred in such Westerns as "3 Godfathers" and "Wagon Master," has died in California at the age of 91.
His daughter, Melinda Carey, says he died Thursday of natural causes at a hospice facility in Santa Barbara, Calif.
Carey's career spanned more than 50 years and included such John Ford films as "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon" and "The Searchers." He also appeared in the movies "Gremlins" and "Back to the Future Part III."
His memoir, "Company of Heroes: My Life as an Actor in the John Ford Stock Company," was published in 1994.
Carey was the son of silent-film Western star Harry Carey Sr. and actress Olive Carey.
He is survived by his wife, son, two daughters, three grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

Commentarium (14 Comments)
Did anyone notice it was only guys looking for library sex? Doesnt books turn on the female population too?
As a female, I'd happily fuck in a library, but I wouldn't have to go on Craigslist to find a willing participant.
I think that's a fundamental difference between men and women. Women menstruate and have breasts and never try to arrange library trysts on Craigslist. They just don't.
#10 made my day! . . . a reminder that attraction and beauty (wherever/however one finds them) are sacred and do inspire us to find the best in ourselves and our world. Beautiful!
I can't imagine why I would ever have to advertise. If that's what a girl wants to do, if she can't make it happen w/ little effort, well, that's just plain pathetic. Either she doesn't know she has the power, or is afraid to use it. But while I'm here, any nerdy inexperienced boys care to slide on back in the Chaucer section, I'm the very prim and proper bitch with the green top copying class notes into my composition book. Tell me your name is Eustace, and see where that gets you.
Darinja, I tried Chaucer section. "Water damage" perhaps the Faust section?

The Parable of the Lily by Liz Curtis Higgs and Illustrated by Nancy Munger
Picture Book, Ages 3+, 32 pp.
Gold Medallion Book Winner
Maggie, the farmer's youngest daughter, loves getting gifts, especially mysterious ones. One wintry day, she receives a package in the mail. She excitedly opens the package to find a bulb buried in a crate of dirt. This was not what Maggie expected. She had hoped for a doll or a game, not a bulb that would one day become a plant. When spring comes, she finds the bulb in the cellar and tosses the lifeless thing into the garden, never to think of it again. . . . Until she walks outside on Easter morning and finds the most beautiful lily she has ever seen. Through the unique gift of a bulb, Maggie discovers the power of grace and forgiveness and the true meaning of Easter.
The illustrations are so cute and what a wonderful story of the good Lord's forgiveness of all our sins. A great story to share this Easter!
Thanks to NetGalley and Tommy Nelson/Thomas Nelson for providing me with an e-copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Gardening in cold climates is challenging, but with these plants, you can count on goof-proof results.
Botanical name: Delphinium.
Bloom time: Summer; may bloom again in autumn if cut back.
Hardiness: Zones 3 to 7.
Size: Most are 3'-7'; some dwarf species are available.
Light needs: Full sun.
Care tips: Choose a planting site with good drainage and air circulation to ward off diseases and pests. Most tall cultivars need to be staked, but wear gloves when handling them; they can cause allergic reactions.
Botanical name: Rosa rugosa.
Bloom time: Spring to autumn.
Hardiness: Zones 2 to 8.
Size: 3'-8' high; 8' wide.
Care tips: This plant prefers moist, well-draining soil but will tolerate a wide variety of conditions, including sandy soil. Plant small, bare-root roses while they're dormant in spring. Container plants may be added to the landscape anytime during the growing season.
Botanical name: Centaurea Montana.
Bloom time: Late spring to midsummer.
Hardiness: Zones 3 to 8.
Size: Up to 18" high and 24" wide.
Light needs: Full sun to partial shade.
Care tips: Prefers moist, well-draining soil. This plant self-seeds readily, forming a thick mat that's ideal for borders, naturalizing or rock gardens. Bluets also attract bees and butterflies.
Botanical name: Lilium species and hybrids.
Bloom time: From early summer through early autumn; timing varies with cultivar.
Hardiness: Zones 3 or 4 to 8.
Size: 2'-7' high; 1'-2' wide.
Care tips: Plant in fall or use precooked bulbs when planting in spring. Plants are often available from garden centers for spring and summer planting. To propagate, dig up dormant bulbs after foliage dies back and separate bulblets for replanting. Bulbs need a cold period while dormant. Gardeners in Zones 10 and 11 can buy precooled bulbs or species adapted to short, mild winters.

I hope you enjoy using these programs as much as I do. It should be noted that I am not the programmer – just the inspiration, inspired by frustration. To those that have worked on these programs, many, many thanks.The goal of the software here is to be simply useful and simply free. To be honest, these programs have arisen because I personally want to be as productive as possible, as quick as possible. Using bloated software with over-the-top features has its place for me only about 1% of the time. The rest of the time I just want to get things done. As the Good Book says, "Better is the end of a thing than its beginning (Ecclesiastes 7:8)."

Time is just a way that our mind finds to cope with reality.

Here are the pictures.
Time is just a way that our mind finds to cope with reality.
"La Vida és sueño" – "Life is a dream" – I agree with Calderón de la Barca.
A visit to a thrifty shop and to a comics shop just emphasized that feeling.
Here are the pictures.
For more than one hundred years Herman Miller has been manufacturing beautiful and durable furniture. A twelve year warranty on items that are constantly pushed and shoved by tall and over-weighted people , is not a small thing.
I went to their plants in Zeeland, Michigan, in mid-November, to photograph for a Brazilian business magazine – Época Negócios – which authorized me to reproduce some photographs in this blog. The article, written by Marcos Todeschini, is in the May issue of Época Negócios.
The photographs below were taken around Herman Miller´s Guest House – Marigold Lodge – and their Main Office.
There are thousands of abandoned houses and condos. Some of them destroyed by the fires that the homeless start to fight the inclement cold nights. Detroit is partially the setting of an end-of-the-world documentary. Poverty-stricken people wander like robots, with their joints stiffened by the cold wind.
Another symbol of the decadence is the Packard plant. Its ruins spread for 3,500,00 square-feet, of which the city is not able to get rid of. Abandoned for decades, it does not have even a owner. Urban legend has it that its owner is incarcerated in California for drugs. The place turned into a morbid tourist attraction and meeting point of graffiti artists.
In 60 years, Detroit population diminished from 1.8 million to 750,000. In 1967, a historic race riot rattled the city. Due to inability in the post-riot negotiations, the white population left the city for the suburbs or other parts of the country. Add to the racial tension the galloping unemployment in the car industry – GM, Ford and Chrysler. Jobs were eliminated in great volumes. Firstly because of automation, and later by the invasion of the Japanese cars. And, more recently, by a stunning sequence of fatal events: 9/11 and the bubbles of Wall Street. The blow of mercy was the burst of the real estate bubble in 2007, which became the biggest recession of the last 60 years. In the peak point of the crisis, almost 3 million vehicles stopped being manufactured in the United States. Production shrank to its lowest point in 20 years. GM and Chrysler survived due to billionaire loans by the Treasury, which became partner of those companies. Dozens of plants and hundreds of car dealers closed their doors. Thousands of jobs were lost. Detroit collapsed with its industry. The city is considered the worst place to live in the United States. The crime rate is one of the worst of the country – six times more homicides than New York; twice the robberies per thousand habitants. Last month, a serial rapist scared the city.
About 50,000 families houses were foreclosed.
Nevertheless, what seemed to be the end of the automotive industry in the United States, turned out to be a milestone in the history of human mobility. With a surprising velocity, the auto manufacturers made a U-turn in its production lines. They are abandoning the gas-gushers SUVs, and manufacturing compact cars and clean energy vehicles. The sales have soared and there is hope again.
Downtown Detroit is coming back. There is already much to see in that area. Could be better, but the process suffered a setback with the imprisonment of the Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick for obstruction of justice.
A luxurious hotel opened in 1924, which was abandoned for many years, was recuperated and reopened in 2005. It is the Book Cadillac, with condominiums and rooms. Book Cadillac are two traditional families of Detroit(the city was founded by a Cadillac 300 years ago), and the hotel is now the Westin Book Cadillac. – "We cater for the corporative clientele on weekdays, and on the weekends we have parties and receptions", declares the Concierge-Chief Bradley McCallum, an amateur architectural photographer himself.
Institutions and altruistic persons apply themselves to mitigate the suffering of the ones with hunger and cold. One of those persons is Jeff DeBruyn, a 41 year-old lawyer, who manages a soup kitchen in a Pentecostal church, with a Catholic priest. DeBruyn created also Face the Station, a charity in the Corktown area, close to downtown. With donations, he bought two derelict houses to build a community center. "We will give housing and provide information for those people. Those people do not have money to buy newspapers or computers. There is no democracy without information", said DeBruyn.
Detroit auto show attracted more visitors in 2011. On Sunday, Jan. 16, 99 visitors saw the new models and learned that GM´s Volt, is the car of the year. Here is one of the leverages to the recuperation of the city – the electric car. "We will produce the dream models of the consumers of the future: those which are environment-friendly and high tech", said Bill Ford, great-grandson of Henry Ford, and current President of the Board of Directors of Ford Motors.
The future of Detroit depends upon the fulfillment of that promise , shared with GM and Chrysler.
Photo # 1 – The Train Depot or Michigan Central Station, was the tallest train station in the world on its inauguration in 1913. It was abandoned in 1988. The City Council voted its demolition in 2009, but it was impounded in a court because it is a historical building. To the left of the photo, the depot of school books and school materials of the city, which was abandoned in 1987 with leakage in the roof. All the material there.
Foto # 2 – The Metropolitan Building, which in its hay days was totally occupied by jewelry stores, is abandoned, but there are signs that it will be recouped. To the right, the Wurlitzer Building, whose recuperation has already begun. It will become an office building.

Many thanks to the journalists who helped me around Detroit: Jillian Bogater and Steven Neavling, and to Jeff DeBryun. Thanks also to Bryan Bogater, a native from Detroit and lover of his hometown, who resides in Fort Lauderdale. This photo-journalistic work began with my talks with Bryan.
It is a cold Saturday morning and the Venetian Pool is closed. From outside, I see the dirt in the pool. Nothing there to photograph.
Let me wander toward the Biltmore Hotel.
A feast of colors is what the Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden is.
The Sundays of August are for free, and a lot of children add to the colors and vibrance of the garden.
Today, let´s do something different: send the colors away of the photographs, and bring out with desaturation the key shapes, lines, and a sense of mystery, something more symbolic and evocative.
Many people still love black & white photographs. Do you?
Historically, New York is the mecca of architectural photography in the United States.
Many great photographers shot its skyline, its streets, its plazas: Berenice Abbott, Margaret Bourke-White, André Kertész, Paul Strand, Alfred Stieglitz, Edward Steichen, to name just a few.
Chicago has the wonderful work of John Szarkowski.
It is about time to give some attention to the Magic City. Somebody has to do something.
Let´s get started.

HOF: What Should Have Been
I have spent the better part of the past couple of weeks giving you my thoughts on a myriad of men who were eligible for election into the Baseball Hall of Fame (you can find link to all of those pieces in Is There Room for a DH – just scroll to the bottom for the other reviews). In case you missed it, here is how things played out in the voting that was announced yesterday. Remember, a player must appear on 75 percent of the ballots to gain enshrinement in the Hall of Fame.
77.9% – Andre Dawson
72.4 – Bert Blyleven
73.7 – Roberto Alomar
52.3 – Jack Morris
51.6 – Barry Larkin
47.3 – Lee Smith
36.2 – Edgar Martinez
30.4 – Tim Raines
23.7 – Mark McGwire
22.4 – Alan Trammell
21.5 – Fred McGriff
Obviously only Dawson was enshrined. I don't exactly get the warm and fuzzies there, but a strong case can clearly be made for him (I did just that arguing for him in a piece you can access in the link above. In fact, I previously covered Dawson, Alomar, Martinez, Raines, McGwire and McGriff). My thoughts on the others who gained at least 20 percent of the vote are as follows.
Bert Blyleven: 287 career victories (27th all-time), 3,071 Ks (5th), 4970 IP (14th). Ten times he finished in the top-10 in ERA, but he won 20 games only once, never led the league in victories or ERA, and basically was a very, very good pitcher for a very long time. Was never great, and if that is what the HOF is for, he shouldn't make it (he never finished above third in the Cy Young voting). Also, how has he gone from 14.1 percent of the vote in his second year of eligibility (1999) to the cusp of enshrinement?
Roberto Alomar: See link above for my thoughts. Bottom line is that 12 All-Star appearances and 10 Gold Gloves should make you a mortal lock for HOF. What are the voters waiting for – Alomar to discover Adamantium (an X-Men reference for those of you that don't get the inside joke)?
Jack Morris: Much has been made about the fact that his 3.90 ERA would be the worst of any pitcher in the Hall. Like Blyleven, he was very good for a long time but was he every truly great? You can make the argument he was great in big games, but there is more to a career than a World Series outing or two (ask Mr. Perfect, Don Larson). Morris won "only" 254 games, never finished as even the runner-up for the Cy Young Award, never led the league in ERA or WHIP, and only once paced his league in Ks (232 in 1983). One of the best who shouldn't be in.
Barry Larkin: A case has been made by Jayson Stark of ESPN, and instead of rehashing all of it I will just link you to the piece titled Underrated Larkin Deserves Spot in Hall. Two salient points. (1) Larkin won nine Silver Slugger awards. There has only been one infielder in history with more than that and his name is Alex Rodriguez. (2) His .815 OPS isn't great, but it's better than Cal Ripken (.788) and is actually better than all but five shortstops since 1900 who have accrued at least 5,000 at-bats.
Lee Smith: His total of 478 saves is third all-time. He was named to seven All-Star teams, but at the same time he only finished in the top-10 of the Cy Young voting four times in 18 seasons and owns a 3.03 ERA and 1.26 WHIP, hardly awe inspiring numbers. Another case of really good but never really great despite the huge save total.
Edgar Martinez: See link above for my thoughts. I wasn't at all surprised he didn't get in, but with all the "Vote for Martinez" and "I Love Edgar" movements floating around, I'm surprised he only got a third of the vote. Will likely one day make it.
Tim Raines: See link above for my thoughts. A travesty. If he wasn't one of the five best leadoff men of all-time I'll eat my left shoe with nary an herb to spice it up.
Mark McGwire: See link above for my thoughts. Again, no shock he is on the outside looking in. Clearly voters are punishing him for his connection with performance enhancing drugs as you cannot, as a rational person, dispute his candidacy based on the numbers.
Alan Trammell: Rob Neyer, about as respected a man as there is at knowing the history of the game combined with sabermetric principles, said this week that Trammel is one of the 10-12 greatest shortstops of all-time. I don't know if that is true or not, I'm inclined to take Neyer at his word, but I do know that Trammel made six All-Star teams, was a top-10 vote getter for MVP three times, won four Gold Gloves, had 2,365 hits and posted a .285 batting average. He also had a season for the ages in 1987 as he hit .343 with 28 homers, 105 RBI, 109 runs and 21 steals.
Fred McGriff: See link above for my thoughts. Using the smell test he just doesn't make it. Mind numbingly consistent, he was never the best at his position or truly great.
When I have more time I might lament what the hell the voters are thinking, clearly at least a few of the men and women who make the decision when it comes to entry in the Hall need to be replaced for outright stupidity (what sane person would case a vote for David Segui? – and I'm not making that up, he got one vote this year). Luckily for them, I don't have time to get into that right now because I'm sure I have a scathing review of the entire process germinating in my mind.

American Eagle Forced To Accept Transgendered Staff
Givenchy made a bold statement to the transgendered community when designer Riccardo Tisci cast Lea T., formerly Leo T, in the brand's Fall/Winter 2010 ad campaign. But while we celebrate Tisci's forward thinking, other battles are still being fought — and in this case won — in the transgendered community. Today, the New York Daily News reports that Attorney General Andrew Cuomo has required American Eagle Outfitters to change some of their employee rules, one of which banned cross-dressing.

The demand curve
Normal and inferior goods How the demand for some goods could actually go down if incomes go up
⇐ Use this menu to view and help create subtitles for this video in many different languages.
You'll probably want to hide YouTube's captions if using these subtitles.
- What I want to do in this video
- is think about the demand curve
- for two different products.
- So this is some laptop
- that's on the market.
- And this, let's just say,
- is the cheapest car
- that happens to be on the market
- this is actually a picture of a 1985
- assuming this is the cheapest car on the market.
- So let's just think about
- their hypothetical demand curves right now
- So once again, on the vertical axis,
- we're going to put price,
- and on the horizontal axis,
- we put quantity,
- and then over here
- let me do it for the same thing
- So this is price,
- and this right over here is quantity.
- And both of them satisfy the law of demand
- if the price is really high
- the quantity demanded is going to be really low for the laptop
- and so it might be right over there
- and if the price is low
- the quantity demanded is going to increase.
- So, the demand curve might look something like that.
- And it doesn't have to be a curve,
- or doesn't have to be a line,
- it could be a curve or anything like that.
- So that is the current demand for the laptop
- All else equal,
- so we're not talking about shifting any of those other factors
- that we've been talking about in the last few videos.
- Now we can draw a similar demand curve
- for this very cheap automobile.
- If the price is high,
- very few people are going to want to buy it,
- and I'm not going to specify what the price is,
- but this is a general idea
- if the price is higher,
- fewer people are going to want to buy it
- If the price is lower,
- more people are going to want to buy it
- So this demand curve will also have the same shape
- from the top left to the bottom right
- it satisfies the law of demand.
- So once again, that is the current demand.
- Now let's think about
- how the demand for each of these goods might change
- depending on changes in income.
- So we're going to focus on the income factor
- the income effect, for this video
- and see how these 2 products might change.
- So let's just assume that
- income in the general population goes up.
- So for something like a laptop, wow,
- if more people are making more money
- especially in real terms
- they have more money to spend well
- for any given price point,
- at any given price point,
- there's going to be a higher quantity
- that's demanded.
- At any given price point,
- higher quantity demanded.
- And so if income goes up for this laptop,
- the demand will increase.
- And the way we show demand increasing
- is the whole curve shifts to the right
- so this right over here demand increased
- demand went up when income went up.
- And this makes complete sense
- and if income were to go down,
- demand would go down
- because people would have less money
- to buy something like a laptop.
- And this is the case for most goods
- we call things like this,
- when income goes up, demand goes up,
- whole curve shifts to the right
- income goes down, demand goes down,
- whole curve shifts to the left
- We call this a normal good.
- So this right over here is a normal good.
- Now let's think about
- what happens with the cheapest car on the market.
- And let's assume we're in a developed country
- where almost everyone has some form of a car.
- Now, what happens when income goes up?
- So people have more money
- but are they going to spend that money
- buying the cheapest car on the market?
- Well, in most cases, if income goes up generally,
- people say, well I have a little bit more money,
- maybe I'll buy a slightly nicer car.
- So, and maybe in particular
- the people who were going to buy this car
- at any given price point
- So this price point,
- the people who were going to buy the car will say
- Wait! I can now afford a better car!
- Why should I you know,
- this is not safe
- maybe or not as safe as the other cars,
- and I want to impress my friends
- from high school and all that,
- so something very strange might happen for this car,
- the demand for this car.
- It actually will decrease
- so the whole curve could shift to the left.
- So income is a very strange thing for this good
- because income increasing maybe people say,
- hey you know what,
- I could trade out of this good
- I could get a good that
- I'd rather have than just getting more of this thing right over here
- Demand went down.
- And goods like this, we call them inferior goods.
- And the general way to think about
- inferior goods are the goods
- that people will want to not own if they had more money
- they would want to buy, I guess, less inferior goods.
- Or another way to think about it is,
- if income were to go down,
- and more people are budget strapped
- and they can't afford
- the Mercedes-Benz or the BMW
- or even the mid-sized sedan anymore,
- so if income were to go down
- and things were getting tighter,
- more people would want this car
- more people would have to trade down to this
- because they're strapped,
- they're tightening their belts
- and so you'll have this strange situation
- where if income goes down,
- demand would go up for this thing
- So income goes down,
- demand goes up.
- Remember, we're talking about demand,
- we're talking about the entire shifting of the curve.
- At any given price point,
- the quantity demanded will go up.
- Because, this is, or we're assuming,
- is the cheapest car on the market.
- So, and likewise,
- if income were to go down for a normal good,
- it'll do what you'll expect,
- demand would go down.
- So this, an inferior good,
- does the opposite of a normal good
- when we're talking about the income effect,
- the inferior good will do the opposite of a normal good
- and that's because people want to trade out of it
- when their income goes up
- or they don't want to buy it
- or they want to buy something nicer.
- And when their income goes down,
- they'll say
- I have to buy this thing,
- so you know, let me just do it.

PALO ALTO, CALIF.—It was perhaps the most highly touted press conference of the week, but it didn't reveal much in the way of evidence: Three bigfoot enthusiasts announced today that a series of genetic tests performed on samples taken from a carcass they claim is a Sasquatch came back as a mixture of human and opossum.
In addition to the mixed DNA results, Tom Biscardi, Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer showed the audience two blurry photos, one of a solitary figure in mixed hardwood forest and another of the mouth of what appeared to be the tongue and teeth of a primate.
Nevertheless, fielding questions from a packed room in Palo Alto, the trio called their discovery groundbreaking and held to their claim that the animal they are currently holding in "an undisclosed location" is indeed the legendary bigfoot.
"We're not bigfoot hunters originally," Whitton said. "We stumbled upon this creature. It was a stroke of luck, I can tell you that."
Whitton and Dyer said they discovered the carcass when they were hiking in a forest near their home sometime in June and that it has been stored in a large freezer since then. They refused to say exactly where and when, stating only that it was in northern Georgia and that they captured video of several live animals.
They said when they found the carcass they hauled it into a truck and brought it to a freezer. They then set up a Web site to offer tours into the area and made an announcement on a bigfoot enthusiast radio program.
That's when Biscardi got involved, moved the animal to another location, and began contacting the media. In the week before the press conference, Whitton and Dyer spent several days sparring with skeptics and created a YouTube video where they held a stuffed bear up to the camera and repeated their claims of having found a Sasquatch.
Meanwhile, Biscardi sent three samples of the carcass to biologist Curtis Nelson at the University of Minnesota for analysis. In an e-mail, Nelson told Biscardi that most of DNA segments taken from two of the samples matched human DNA. One came back as a likely match for an American opossum. Biscardi said this is likely from a stomach sample and that the creature might have eaten an opossum. He did not say why he had sampled from the stomach.
