Sto-Rox's Rippy talks recruiting during Rivals chat
Andrew Chiappazzi
Talk about it in The Main Board
The 2012 Sto-Rox (McKees Rocks, Pa.) linebacker discussed the recruiting process, who he's leaning on for advice, and what he's looking for during the decision making process in a
live chat with Rivals.com on Thursday.
You can click that link for a full replay of the chat, but here are some highlights.
Rippy's recruiting is wide open, although he's begun the process of cutting his list down to a top five or ten.
With the early graduation planned, Rippy's hopeful he'll be able to land on a college campus in January, impress in spring ball, and get a chance to crack the depth chart.
"I think graduating early will benefit me," Rippy said. "Whatever team takes me I'd have a chance to start or be a second-teamer or backup."
That team very well might be Florida, who Rippy likes quit a bit and very nearly got a commitment from.
"That's what my heart was set on until something occurred," Rippy said of being a Gator. "I wanted to commit but they weren't ready to accept my commitment. Now I'm looking around."
And if Florida were to call immediately and say they'd accept his commitment?
"I would have to think hard about that," Rippy said. "It's a possibility."
The SEC seems to be a selling point for Rippy, saying he likes Tennessee but would have to visit before truly evaluating the Vols, that Trooper Taylor of Auburn is one of the most down-to-earth coaches he's met, and that Alabama's tradition is impressive.
As for the hometown Pitt Panthers, Rippy said he's been in touch with the staff, but that, "I'll have to see how they do this season. I have a cousin who plays for them. We talk about it. But I want to see how they perform."
When the decision finally comes down, Rippy said he'll continue to lean on his various family members who have been through the process - brother Doug Rippy plays at Colorado - as well as friends like Steelers safety Ryan Mundy and former Sto-Rox players Adam DiMichele and Alex DiMichele to make the best decision.

Prescription Drugs:
State Monitoring Programs Provide Useful Tool to Reduce Diversion
GAO-02-634: Published: May 17, 2002. Publicly Released: Jun 17, 2002.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:

Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Prescription drug diversion is the channeling of pharmaceuticals for illegal purposes or abuse. According to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), increased prescription drug abuse and emergency room admissions, as well as the theft and illegal resale of prescription drugs, indicate that drug diversion is a growing problem associated with addiction, overdose, and death. All 15 state prescription drug monitoring programs (PDMP) collect information about the prescribing, dispensing, and use of prescription drugs and distribute it to medical practitioners, pharmacies, and state law enforcement and regulatory agencies. However, the programs differ in terms of objectives, design, and operations. In addition to helping law enforcement identify and prevent prescription drug diversion, program objectives also include education of the public, physicians, and pharmacists about the nature and extent of the problem, and medical treatment options for abusers of diverted drugs. The programs' designs vary by specific drugs covered and by the type of state agency in which they are housed. Some programs use the prescription data proactively to identify trends or patterns of use and to respond to law enforcement requests. Others use it only to respond to requests. States with PDMPs improve the timeliness of law enforcement and regulatory investigations. States considering establishing a PDMP, or expanding an existing one, face several challenges. These include educating the public and policymakers about prescription drug diversion and abuse and the benefits of a PDMP, responding to the concerns of physicians, patients, and pharmacists regarding the confidentiality of prescription information, and funding for program development and operations. National efforts to assist states in addressing illegal diversion have focused on providing guidance and technical assistance.

On Sabbath afternoon at the Adventist Forum Conference, Samir Selmanović will speak on "Seventh-day Adventist Identity in a Multifaith World." Here he answers three questions about the Christian divide, moral absolutes, and interfaith dialogue.
Question: In what specific ways is the liberal/conservative divide damaging Christian identity?
Briana Bunn belongs to the Church of the Advent Hope, located just east of Central Park in New York City. Her congregation describes itself as a "diverse community" whose members "share a love for Jesus and a commitment to demonstrating and spreading the good news of His transforming love to our neighborhoods, the city of New York, and the world."
Briana became a baptized member in 2009, more than a decade after other members of her family (who were praying for her) had become Adventist.
Mike Cauley is president of the Florida Conference. He leads a community of more than 61,500 Adventists who belong to 199 churches and 51 companies. The conference's mission is to "make mature disciples within biblical communities, preparing people to meet Jesus." One of its official values is "incarnational passion."
Alden Thompson, the well-known Adventist author and Walla Walla University faculty member, shares teaching responsibilities for the Chan Shun Sabbath School class on the university's campus. Thompson, from the School of Theology, teaches with Joe Galusha, a biologist, Loren Dickinson, a retired communications professor, and Gayle Norton, religion teacher at Walla Walla Valley Academy, along with two new members of the team, mentioned below. The class meets for 75 minutes each Sabbath, year round.
The best Sabbath School classes "practice resurrection" (poet Wendell Berry's phrase) by breathing new life into Seventh-day Adventist conversation and community. The Ear hopes that short interviews of persons who lead such classes will inspire other classes and other teachers.
Jonathan Duffy, ADRA's new president, talks to Spectrum about his vision and priorities for the agency, and the changes he hopes to make.* Duffy says he plans to strengthen ADRA's relationship with the church and work to bring back the confidence of the staff after the turmoil and mass dismissals of the last few years.
Except for the best of dinner tables, there is nothing like a great Sabbath School class for building community through conversation. The impression that Sabbath school is in decline may be widespread, but in small circles of the truly fortunate, Sabbath School is the highlight—certainly one highlight—of the week.
How so?
Angela Bryant-Brown is a singer and writer of worship and praise songs. Music is her passion. She talked to Spectrum about inspiration, her many projects, a memorable performance as a third-grader, her YouTube channel, and her record label.
Question: You wear many hats in your life, including singer, songwriter, inspirational speaker, talk radio host, nonprofit founder and CEO, wife and mother. Have I missed any big ones? What do you consider your primary occupation?
Abel Kirui is one of the world's fastest runners. The 31-year-old Kenyan has won the marathon race in the World Championships twice, and earned silver at last summer's London Olympics. He is also a Seventh-day Adventist, and most Sabbaths he can be found worshipping at the Namgoi Adventist Church in western Kenya.
Spectrum talked to Kirui about his goals as a runner and as a Christian.
Question: I understand a stress fracture forced you to drop out of the field for the London marathon in April. Were you disappointed?
In a candid and revealing interview, Dr. Ralph S. Watts - the longest-serving president of ADRA - talks to Spectrum about how his experience shaped him for the job, how he tackled ADRA's debt and changed its board, and the advice he would offer new president Jonathan Duffy.

All of the above patent applications are hereby incorporated herein by reference.
The present invention relates in general to an improved method for radiation shielding of microelectronic devices. The invention more particularly relates to packaging designs and processes for manufacturing improved radiation tolerant 3-dimensional ceramic and metal packaged microelectronic multi-chip modules (MCMs).
Many of today's commercial integrated circuit (IC) devices and multi-chip modules (MCM) cannot be utilized in deep space and earth orbiting applications because of Total Dose radiation induced damage. Commercial IC devices are developed and manufactured for the computer and mass market applications and are not designed to withstand the effects of the natural space environment. The type and source of radiation in space include solar flares, galactic cosmic radiation and the Van Allen trapped electron and proton belts or man-made radiation induced events (neutrons and gamma radiation).
Commercially available metal packaged integrated circuits and multi-chip modules have not been used in spacecraft applications because of both perceived and real reliability problems. Some examples of commercial multi-chip modules are U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,578,526, 5,502,289, 5,495,398, 5,495,394, 5,436,411, 5,422,435. The major issues needing to be addressed for commercial integrated circuits in order for them to fly in space are the reliability and survivability of these devices when exposed to spacecraft environmental hazards such as total dose levels of electrons, protons, solar flares, and cosmic radiation. Typical silicon integrated circuit plastic, ceramic, metal and multi-chip module packaged devices will fail to operate when exposed to total doses of 2 to 15 Krads(Si). Since communication satellites are expected to function in orbit for periods of 8 to 15 years, this would rule out almost all commercially available packaged silicon integrated circuit devices and multi-chip modules.
Common methods used to prevent radiation degradation in performance for integrated circuits are: 1) design special radiation tolerant die, 2) screen each part for radiation tolerance, or 3) shield the package or the platform. There are tradeoffs with each of these methods. The first example usually is the most radiation tolerant. Here the die is specially designed to be radiation tolerant. However, this method is both time consuming and expensive to produce since the part must be redesigned to incorporate radiation hardening techniques. Examples of this method include U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,324,952, 5,220,192, 5,140,390, 5,024,965, 5,006,479, 5,001,528, 4,903,108, 4,825,278, 4,675,978, 4,402,002, 4,313,7684, 4,148,049, 4,014,772, and 3,933,530. This method delays the time to market such that these radiation hardened devices are usually 2 to 3 generations behind the current commercial technological advances in both size and capabilities. There are additional penalties in limited marketability and demand for the product. The result is a higher cost from low volume productions of the die. The end result, is that this method produces; 1) a more expensive product that is 2) technologically behind current commercially available microelectronics, 3) frequently with slower speed and 4) less capability. Additionally because of the limited market for these products, frequently they are not available at all.
The second method involves testing each part or die lot in the hopes that the die will meet the mission radiation requirements. This could be an expensive process because of the large amount of testing that would be required and the low probability of success in finding an inherently radiation tolerant die that meets the mission requirements. This problem is compounded for Multi-chip Modules in that all the die required in the package need to be radiation tolerant. This is not only extremely restrictive on the design and expensive because of the amount of testing but it is highly unlikely that all the required die will be found that will meet the radiation requirements of the mission.
The third method involves shielding the part. This method includes either shielding the entire satellite, subsystem or individual part. Shielding the satellite or subsystem carries extreme weight and size penalties that generally make this solution cost prohibitive. The spacecraft has some inherent shielding the skin and spacecraft components, however this is very difficult to model and generally doesn't provide adequate shielding for all parts and directions.
An example of system level shielding is U.S. Pat. No. 4,833,334, which is incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein, describes the use of a protective box to house sensitive electronic components. This box is partially composed of a high atomic weight material to effectively shield against x-rays. However this approach has the serious disadvantage off adding substantial bulk and weight to electronic circuit assemblies protected in this manner. Moreover, it would be expensive to provide this type of protection to individual integrated circuits as manufacturing custom boxes for each circuit configuration would be costly. Similarly U.S. Pat. No. 5,324,952, follows a method of shielding components. If shielding is required the better method is to shield only the components that require shielding.
One method of shielding individual components is know as spot shielding. With this method, a small shield is attached to the surface of the package. However this method does not provide effective 3-dimensional shielding protection. Additionally, the external shield is generally thermally mismatched to the package, and increases the size and weight of the package. Often a bottom spot shield cannot be used due to the inability to accommodate a fixed lead length. The spot shield also has no mechanical support except the adhesive used to attach it to the surface of the package.
An example of spot shielding is disclosed in Japanese patent publication 62-125651, published Jun. 6, 1987 which is incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein. This patent describes a spot shielded semiconductor device which utilizes a double layered shield film to a sealing cover on an upper surface of the semiconductor package and attaching another double layered shield film to a lower surface of the package. However, space qualified microelectronic parts must be capable of withstanding the enormous forces exerted during acceleration periods. The external shields are subject to tearing or prying off from the sealing cover. The use of a double layer shield film only slightly reduces the weight of the package but increases the size of the package unnecessarily. Also thin films are generally only effective at shielding. Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) radiation and are ineffective at shielding ionizing radiation found in space. Examples of this type of EMI or EMF shielding devices include U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,823,523, 4,868,716 and 4,266,239.
The significant disadvantage of the spot shielding method include an increase in weight and thickness of the device, an increase in exposure of the semiconductor to side angle radiation due to the shielding being spaced apart from the semiconductor.
A better method of shielding involves using an integrated shield, where the package itself is the shield. The best example of this is Space Electronics Inc.'s RAD-PAK� technology, patent application Ser. No. 08/372,289 where the material in the package and the package design is optimized for the natural space radiation environment. However this method focuses on single-sided MCMs and monolithic ICS. These designs are acceptable for most applications but do not maximize the density of integrated circuit designs.
The inventions described herein will provide:
A typical prior art metal or ceramic packaged integrated circuit or multi-chip module assembly consists of silicon integrated circuit die mounted on a substrate (ceramic) which is then mounted to the metal base with wirebonds connecting the substrate to the wire bond package pads/posts. (
The final packaged devices are tested for conformance to manufacturer's specifications and those that pass are delivered. These devices would not work in the typical space application "as is" since the housing is very thin (approximately 3 to 8 mils/metal or approximately 10 to 40 mils/ceramic) and is designed for mechanical structures only.
A ceramic or metal (usually Kovar) lid is utilized to seal the package. Typical packages do not use metal on the base except for heat sinking purposes and metallization of the ceramic for wire bond and die attach purposes.
The process begins with use of commercially available software like "Space Radiation Version 4.0" to model the application environment based on orbit or trajectory information. A dose versus depth curve is the generated output. With the dose versus depth curve and knowing the radiation tolerance of the dice, the required amount of shielding to be used in the package can be calculated. By plotting the die tolerance on the dose versus depth curve, and the inherent satellite shielding, the required amount of shielding from the integrated circuit package can be determine to insure that the integrated circuit will survive over the satellite mission life.
In the invention, the 3-dimensional radiation shielded MCM is comprised of a double-sided substrate (either ceramic or printed circuit board) with IC die mounted to both sides. Two configurations of substrates exist, substrates mounted into packages and substrates which are an integrated part of the package. In all configurations the packages must be hermetically sealed if the part is to be used in space environments.
The first configuration involves attaching the substrate within a base package comprised of radiation shielding material. Electrical connections are made from the substrate through insulating feed throughs that are attached to package leads. A radiation shielding lid is sealed to the base to from a hermetic seal.
The second configuration integrates the substrates into the package. This configuration consists of; a double-sided substrate (ceramic or printed circuit board) with the IC die attached and wire bonded, a lid and side-wall combination comprised of radiation shielding material which is sealed to the substrate with a seal ring. Electrical connections are made from the screened inter connects within the substrate which are then attached to the external package leads. (
To mechanically hold the substrates in the third configuration, the substrates is sealed inside a package comprised of side walls and lids comprised of radiation shielding material or sandwiched between the side-walls. The package is designed with two cavities, one for each substrate or a single integrated top and bottom sided substrate. The substrates are wire bonded to the package wire bond pads The wire bond pads connect to the external leads (FIG. 5).
In a fourth configuration, two substrates are mounted on a dual cavitied base (FIG. 11). The integrated circuits are mounted on the substrate with electrical connections made to package leads outside the package through insulating electrical feed throughs in the base. The two lids and the base are comprised of radiation shielding material.
In the third and fourth configuration, two lid types can be utilized per side: 1) A single shield which also is the lid and provides a hermetic seal (FIG. 6), or 2) two lids, an internal shield (lid) which does not provide a hermetic seal, and an outer "standard" lid which provides the hermetic seal (FIG. 7). All lid types can be flat or provide sidewall shielding. This version is used when extra radiation shielding is required and for sealing and mechanical reasons, a non-radiation shielding material needs to be used to make a hermetic seal
The preferred embodiment of the invention for the 3-dimensional radiation shielded MCM concept will result in at least a ten fold improvement in the devices' ability to meet a given total dose and is structurally and thermally stable. In the preferred embodiment shielding would be composed of a high Z material or a mixture of high Z/Low Z material. Where High Z is defined as material with an atomic number greater than 40.
Lead configurations can be of many types (pin-grid array, flat package, dual-in-line packages, can packages, etc.). The process and design steps to achieving a fully integrated, shielded device are described in the Preferred Embodiment.
The above mentioned and other objects and features of this invention and the manner of attaining them will become apparent, and the invention itself will be best understood by reference to the following description of the embodiment of the invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
FIG. 6. is a top and side view of a double sided three dimensional multi-chip module with top and bottom radiation shielding lids, a top and bottom side-wall and a radiation shielding die attach slug.
FIG. 7. is a top and side view of a double sided radiation shielded three dimensional multi-chip module with two different sets of lids, one comprised of radiation shielding material and one standard packaging material, and with a substrate internal to the package.
FIG. 7A. is a top and side view of a three dimensional multi-chip module with side shielded die attach slugs and one set of high-z material lids.
FIG. 8. is a top and side view of a radiation shielded double sided three dimensional multi-chip module with 2 different lids, shielded die attach slugs, and the substrate integrated into the package.
This invention involves a multi-step process that includes radiation evaluation, and flexibility in the design of the package. The steps are as follows:

Golf's one-man soap opera has cut a country song called "Hit It Hard" that draws from his Tour roots, crooning "No laying up, no holding back, ain't afraid of nothing, it's a natural fact."
"Stay away from golf references," advised Adam Hill of the Las Vegas Review-Journal. "Your real life is more of a country song than anything you've done on the course."

Each ocean wave that crests over the beach is actually aiming to touch the base of the Rocky Mountains to complete a Paleolithic-era game of tag. Let the waves tag you with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $49 for a two-hour surfing or paddleboarding lesson for one (a $99 value)
- $89 for a two-hour surfing or paddleboarding lesson for two (a $170 value)
Lessons are taught year-round for all skill levels. Each one includes a full day's rental of a wetsuit and board. Traditional surfing tests agility and grace, whereas paddleboard sessions tone cores with an unconventional workout in which students stand on modified surfboards and use a long paddle to steer themselves across the water.
Whitlock Surf Experience
The patriarch of more than three generations of surfers, Rusty Whitlock began shaping smooth surfboards almost 50 years ago. Accompanied by sons and professional surfers Cory and Ricky, the men of Whitlock oversee a collection of oceanic enterprises that include surf lessons, custom surfboard construction, and custom merchandizing. Whitlock Surf Experience trains budding boardsmen through small classes with a 1:5 instructor-to-student ratio. All teachers boast at least 10 years of experience and are CPR certified to save any waterlogged sand crabs. RW Surfboards fashions wave-riders of all sizes, from 6'5'' tubers to 11-foot longboards, as well as individual rentals for soft surfboards, bodyboards, wetsuits, and bikes.

Modeling Frequency-Dependent Boundaries as Digital Impedance Filters in FDTD and K-DWM Room Acoustics Simulations
A novel method for modeling frequency-dependent boundaries in finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) room acoustic simulations offers a significant improvement over the conventional one-dimensional approach. The method incorporates a digital impedance filter resulting in multidimensional formulation. Reflecting sound waves approximate the theoretical reflectance for any value of wall impedance and angle of incidence, especially at low frequencies. Both phase and amplitude are preserved. Results obtained from numerical experiments confirm the validity of the approach.

Model-turned-actor Siddharth Malhotra, who displayed his chiselled physique in his debut film "Student Of The Year", says he hit the field for some football to burn any extra calories, other than eating in a healthy way.
"I'm a true sports lover. I have been in love with football since my childhood. I also prefer the game rather than working in a closed environment of a gym. I used to participate in inter-college matches while I was in college," said Siddharth.
Even in "Student Of The Year", Siddharth was seen playing football, and indulging in other sports-based activities.
"Sports teach you a lot about life in general," he said.
Siddharth, who started as a model in Delhi, says he prefers home-cooked food.
"I follow a simple diet consisting of organic and home-cooked food with less artificial products and sugar. My meals are high in protein and I also drink a lot of water and also eat at regular intervals."
The actor admits it can be daunting to maintain six-packs the whole year round, and said: "It requires a change of lifestyle with regular workouts and strict dieting. But with correct guidance, it is not impossible."
His next film is titled "The Villain".

Tasmania has some of the most beautiful scenery in the world and one of the best ways to see it is by driving.
The State has 11,223 roads that take you to scenery and destinations second to none.
But not all of these roads are major highways with wide sealed straight stretches. Some are not even arterial roads. Take extra care on country roads, some of which may not be sealed.
Tasmania is the most mountainous of the Australian states and so many roads are narrow, windy and hilly. Drivers need to take road conditions into account and adjust their speed accordingly. It may mean driving below the speed limit. Speed limit signs show the maximum safe speed for the road and does not mean it applies to the whole road. It is best to expect the unexpected because you never know what's around the corner:
- Native wildlife, especially at dawn and dusk
- Winding bends, adjust your speed to the road, stay to the left and do no cut corners
- A herd of sheep, a tractor or a horse rider.
Tasmania can have four seasons in one day. Icy roads are a hazard and extra care should be taken, particularly in winter on the West Coast and Central Highlands. Adjust your speed to the weather.
Travel times can take longer than you think so make sure you are well rested before you drive. Share the driving if possible and have a break every one to one-and-a-half hours.
You'll have a more enjoyable holiday if you plan your journeys carefully and what's more important, you'll stay safe and healthy for a return trip.
For more information about visiting Tasmania, see Discover Tasmania.

This is for all the twisted sisters out there, and especially for my person.
Grey's Anatomy is filled with heart-stopping, heartfelt, or just plain bloody open-heart moments, and there are plenty of relationships to love (Meredith/Derek, Cristina/Owen, April/Jackson…). But romances fall apart as doctors change, leave, or die, and the best relationship is still the original friendship: Meredith Grey and Cristina Yang. Meredith's attempts to be happy and good in spite of her dark, twisty life, and Cristina's biting sarcasm and contempt for almost everyone, make them the perfect pair. Below are the best 10 moments of their 9 seasons together.
Disclaimer: this list only includes moments that could be found on Youtube
10. Season 1, Episode 5: Shake Your Groove Thing – Meredith & Cristina's Dance
This is the beginning of the M/C "dance it out" tradition. It's how the twisted sisters get rid of—or figure out—their twisty feelings. After a long day at the hospital, worried that she might get kicked out of the Seattle Grace program, Meredith returns home to find a raging party; with three words, Cristina makes it okay. This is how best friends work, and it's the start of an awesome relationship.
9. Season 2, Episode 16: It's the End of the World – Tough Love Sympathy
When Meredith "has a feeling" and won't go to work, George and Izzy, two of her closest friends (and housemates) can't do a thing about it—but Cristina can. Of course, this is Cristina, so even though she will be Meredith's Feeling Doctor for the sake of the M/C relationship, she has to do it with stone-cold skepticism. It's the epitome of the two personalities.
8. Season 5, Episode 24: Now or Never – "I Love You" & Hug
First, there had to be a "seriously?" in here somewhere, and it might as well be about Meredith and Derek. Meredith and Cristina often talk about how they've grown together like gnarled trees, and this scene exemplifies it; Meredith can say "I love you" to her prickly friend, and Cristina…well, at least now Cristina understands it's the right moment for a hug, and is capable of initiating it, even if she's not quite sure how it works yet. Sometimes, it's the little things, like the smiles on their faces.
7. Season 9, Episode 21: Sleeping Monster – "Poop on the Table"
Not only is this about the things Meredith and Cristina are willing to do for each other—like watch the "miracle of life," pooping and all—but about the M/C relationship, how they get each other, and how they will always be closer to each other than even their husbands. Regardless of Cristina's posturing, she knows what Meredith needs, and she'll be there.
6. Season 6, Episode 16: Perfect Little Accident – Cheer Up, Twisted Sisters, & Bloodlines
When Cristina is having a bad day, Meredith knows exactly what to do to cheer her up, and she won't hesitate to do it, even if it means throwing her half-sister under the bus. Meredith understands that when Cristina disses her, it's meant lovingly, and all part of C's honesty. They have their twisted sister connection, and though the people around them might not get it, they're happy to be monsters together. Even if Cristina can be facetious.
5. Season 2, Episode 3: Make Me Lose Control – Insults, Stupidity & Crying
We've all been in this situation: the best friend convinces you to do something you know you'll probably hate…but you'll do it anyway, because she probably needs it and you might too. We all have special ways of saying "I love you," to the best friend. And we've all asked a bestie a stupid question and immediately realized it doesn't apply. C/M go jogging, Cristina is skeptical of the benefits of crying, and Meredith understands.
4. Season 6, Episode 22: Shiny Happy People – Meredith's Bed, Christina's Room
With this one, it's about the little things again. M/C are such good friends, the husband knows he's kicked out without anyone saying a word. Meredith knows that Cristina needs distraction, and how to accomplish that. And though Cristina maybe isn't great with emotive words, Meredith can cuddle without questioning. So sweet, so perfect.
3. Season 9, Episode 7: I Was Made for Lovin' You – Teasing & Sister Talk
Without any explanation, introduction, or pauses, M/C can have a deeply important conversation about love, life, and change: that's how invested in each other's lives they are. Meredith can call Cristina's crap without hurting her, and because she's there, Cristina is reassured. Bonus clip: just for laughs, to begin the video, Cristina and Meredith make fun of April together, because that's what best friends do sometimes (from the same episode).
2. Season 2, Episode 1: Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head – "You're My Person"
Almost nothing sums up M/she C as well as this. Cristina is vulnerable and scared, which she hates. It forces her to admit, however unwillingly, that Meredith is her person , something that goes beyond best friends or adopted family. She's even willing to put up with Meredith acting kind of like a puppy dog about it, and endure a little hugging. If I had to pick one scene to explain twisted sisterhood, it would be this. Unless it were…
1. Season 3, Episode 17: Some Kind of Miracle – "Ouch" & "I'm Getting Married"
This. It's never plainer what M/C are to each other than when Cristina almost loses Meredith. Cristina is the reason Meredith lives (before the start of the clip, she forces the doctors to give her one last chance), and everyone around them knows that even Derek takes second place to Cristina sometimes. But Cristina doesn't care. This relationship, for once, isn't about competition or power for Cristina—it's about being her person, and having a person. The looks on their faces when Meredith wakes up are priceless.
