A certain type of sheath is made from the bladder of a pig and it's used to re-grow tissue in humans. In today's Healthy Living, Marcie Fraser looks at UBM, or Urinary Bladder Matrix.
"My foot was swollen and red blood and I thought I had a blood clot in my leg," said Jonna Rue, Acell patient.
Jonna Rue entered the hospital and that was the last thing she remembers. She woke up four weeks later, with doctors considering amputating her lower leg because of the damage a flesh eating bacteria had caused.
"Given the amount of overall tissue loss a lot of the muscles in the leg were also removed at surgery. It was not looking promising to keep her leg and have some function to it," said Dr. Peter Fisk, Community Care general surgeon.
No one knows how she got the flesh eating bacteria. Before doctors amputated her leg, there was one more option: a new product called extracellular matrix, which is made from the cells of the lining of a pig's bladder. It comes in powder form or a sheath which gets placed right into the infected area.
"As it is applied into wound, it breaks down and releases molecules, signals and proteins which allows for the bodies, the patient's own cells, to come to area and provide necessary tissue and ground work to heal up a wound," said Dr. Fisk.
After a few weeks they found amazing results.
"Over a period of about six weeks, we were able to grow enough tissue back in her leg such that we were to place a skin graph over the final coverage and now she's walking around with a functional leg," said Dr. Fisk.
What's unique about this product is that it's called, site specific.
"When most wounds heal, they generally heal with scar tissue, where as this stuff, when applied, the Acell product will actually make specific tissue for that area. So if you need to need muscle, it will provide muscle for that area. If you need skin, it will provide skin for that area," said Dr. Fisk.
This product is used in various ways. Look for more information in Sunday's report.

Barbecue Tips from Miami Top Chefs
Want to grill steaks and smoke ribs like a pro this Memorial Day weekend?
May 24, 2013
Ribs at Bulldog Barbecue
Wolfgang's Steakhouse Chef Amiro Cruz' Steak Tips:
Quality and cut: USDA Prime strip steak, rib-eye, or even porterhouse, which is my personal favorite. Less than 1 1/4 inches thickness is optimal for creating a nice charred grill mark effect, as well as achieving the correct temperature.
Seasoning: Salt and a little fresh ground pepper will do just fine.
Cookery: Do not cover the grill with the lid while the steak is grilling, as that causes the steak to dry out and become tough. Let the meat rest before serving so that the natural juices and flavor can set evenly.
Bulldog Barbecue Chef Howie "Bulldog" Kleinberg's Barbecued Rib Tips:
Quality and cut: No shiners! Shiners are ribs where you can see the bones "shining" through. Remember, fat is flavor. Select a rack of ribs with good marbling and fat content, that is where the flavor is hidden.
Seasoning: Apply your seasoning and marinades at least 24 hours before grilling or smoking, as the spices need time to penetrate the meat and leave a lasting flavor.
Cookery: Take your time. Grilling ribs is an art form. Ribs should be grilled or smoked for at least three-and-a-half to four hours. For the first couple of hours, grill or smoke the meat unwrapped in order to capture the smoke; then wrap the rack for the least two hours, as this will steam the ribs and retain the juice.

La Palina's Goldie Laguito No. 5
The new cigar is named after the company's matron and rolled by Cuba's first female cigar roller.
May 21, 2013
La Palina Cigars launched the latest cigar in its Goldie Collection, the Goldie Laguito No. 5 (ABOVE), in New York City earlier this month. And while cigar smoking is typically a boys' club, this collection was made in celebration of women in the cigar industry. Hence the company's recruitment of Maria Sierra, one of the first Cuban women to master the art of cigar rolling, and a former cigar roller for Fidel Castro.
Being such an integral part of the La Palina brand is exceptionally rewarding for the legendary roller. "Being a part of the first group of women to break through the barrier of male rollers in Cuba in 1967 makes me so proud," says Sierra. "I am so pleased to be a part of such a memorable project that celebrates the accomplishments of women in the cigar industry."
And Sierra isn't the only woman in the mix. The Goldie collection is produced in Little Havana's boutique El Titan de Bronze Factory under the supervision of Sandy Cobas. Furthermore, the wrapper features a portrait of Goldie Drell Paley, the wife of La Palina founder Samuel Paley. Says Sierra, "The La Palina Collection Goldie line truly embodies the tradition of our industry and the contributions of women within it."
The Goldie Laguito No. 5 will be limited to 2,500 numbered boxes, with a second special release coming in August 2013.

For the longest time I resisted listening to this book, and kept wondering "why does everyone love this?" While it seemed as though a giddy throng was raving about it, I quietly said "no thanks" and "not for me". After all, it violated all my "rules" about what fiction I would read and what book I would decline. It had too many characters, too many southern accents, too much conversation. It was about a place and time I had little interest in - even though I was the same age, at the time, as the main character, and had lived through many of the events mentioned in the book. And, I was not interested in the sociology of "white ladies" and their "black maids" in what I considered to be a then culturally unenlightened area.
Well, I was wrong. One day, for lack of anything else to read, I downloaded "The Help" and I was addicted from the first word. While I am not usually a fan of dramatizations, I think that is what sealed the deal on this book for me. The voices of the characters as read by different narrators were Goldilocks perfect - right on the money, and brought to life the world of privileged southern women and their black help, with all its humor, sadness, love and pain.
I can't really add to what any of the other reviewers have said. I ended my reading of this book in tears, as it brought up so many feelings of loss in my own childhood. But this book is not about its ending, even though the story concluded with a painful scene. It's more about living, about the positive, get-it-done energy we all spend in making it through each and every day, through whatever to us means "good" and "bad", and through connections made and connections broken.
I can't wait until this book is a movie. While reading I spent half the time casting all the characters, and will not miss the opening of this book on film.
This novel works better in concept than in execution. The idea of "the rapture" as a dark comedy is appealing, but as the author implies in his post-read interview, what starts out as a humorous spoof on the remnant that is "left behind" quickly moves into a story about loss and about dealing with sudden bereavement. It's reads like a comedy of manners gone wrong, and while Perrotta maintains an ironic, amused distance from his various personas, the reader is left with few relatable characters or situations. There are multiple story lines, a structure which works well, but the narrative elements are all viewed from a detached clinical distance. I like the book, especially the title as a parody of the "Left Behind" series, and do recommend it, but Perrotta's signature tone seems to work better when it's not so heavy-handed.
The narration is perfect. Boutsikaris' voice is mellow and sonorous, un-accented and without unnecessary drama or extremes of expression.
This book will delight and entertain but ultimately enlighten the reader with its detailed introspection, empathy and surprising revelations. Patchett excels at what some critics call "odd pairings" but I regard this novel as a full demonstration of what this author has to say about learning from unexpected sources, and an implied caution against what I would call "contempt prior to investigation". In other words, you never know who your next teacher will be.
I have read most of Patchett's work, including her interview and her Sarah Lawrence commencement address, and she never fails to deliver in narrative skill, characterization and insight.
Can't wait for the next one!

Meteorologists are expected to know everything that is happening around the earth and tens of miles into the atmosphere. That's more space than we can even fathom. And all of the systems within that space affect each other.
Think of it this way: A meteorologist's job is equivalent to guessing when a flashmob is going to break out. At the outset, it seems impossible. But if you meet every person in your city, get to know each of their general habits, and keep track of everyone's plans, you could guess when they might break out into song and dance as a group.
We now know more about all of the systems in the atmosphere, how they affect each other and how they interact. There can still be anomalies, like that out-of-towner, but overall we have a pretty good idea what is going to happen and when. And if an anomaly occurs, how it will affect the entire system.
We tease meteorologists about being wrong when they can't predict the weather to the exact detail, but their job is much harder than most people understand. Just try to remember that the next time you have to shovel yourself out of that unexpected extra 6 inches of snow.
