MediaTek debuts new mid-range phone chips
MediaTek has announced the Helio P23 and P30, designed to deliver high performance LTE connections, power efficiency and support for next-generation dual-camera features.
MediaTek has introduced two new members to the Helio chipset family, the Helio P23 and Helio P30 system-on-chips (SoCs). The new chipsets, designed to deliver performance and power efficiency, dual camera photography, dual SIM and dual 4G VoLTE capabilities, support the explosion of innovation in mid-range smartphones.
"Reaching the mid-market means bringing people affordable devices that power and perform with the latest features, like dual-cameras and 4G LTE connectivity," said TL Lee, General Manager of MediaTek's Wireless Communication business unit. "In the rapidly growing arena of new premium mid-range devices, mobile technology innovators know they need to stand out in a crowded field – P23 and P30 enable them to do that."
For developed and emerging markets, P23 and P30, both 16nm chipsets, deliver powerful combinations of premium photography experiences with outstanding connectivity, power-savings with amazing performance, and simultaneous 4G on dual SIM cards.
MediaTek provided the following information:
Featuring Dual Camera Support
The P23 and P30 bring dual-camera support to the MediaTek Helio line, delivering software and hardware-backed dual-camera features that guarantee a superior photography experience. The MediaTek Helio P23 features support for 13+13 megapixel dual-camera setups, while MediaTek Helio P30 supports up to 16+16 megapixels.
Incorporating MediaTek's Imagiq 2.0 technology suite, the chipsets are equipped to minimise aliasing, grain and noise, reduce chromatic aberration and more – resulting in clear, crisp, high-quality images across a number of lighting conditions. Additionally, a new hardware Camera Control Unit (CCU) – with auto exposure convergence speed up to twice as fast as competitors – ensures users never miss the moment they want to capture.
The P30 also features a new Vision Processing Unit (VPU), a dedicated 500MHz digital signal processor paired to the Image Signal Processors. This frees up system resources and delivers a number of key advantages including:
· Programmability and Flexibility: The VPU provides a platform that allows original equipment manufacturers the ability to customise camera functionality and drive product differentiation.
· Huge Power Reduction: The VPU is a dedicated camera-assisting hardware unit. It performs real-time processing functions that were typically assigned to the CPU or GPU, but at a tenth of the power usage.
· Performance Boost: The VPU can be used in isolation or as part of a team with the CPU/GPU. This provides a true heterogeneous computing environment on the same memory subsystem for advanced multi-application or multi-function tasks.
· With the VPU on board, combined with our Imagiq ISP, P30 can deliver real-time image and video both with ease.
Delivering Dual 4G VoLTE Connectivity
The MediaTek Helio P23 delivers the world's first dual SIM, dual 4G VoLTE/ViLTE support. This allows faster, more consistent connectivity for users who use two SIM cards. The P23 and P30 feature MediaTek's latest generation 4G LTE WorldMode modem, offering superior power efficiency and performance, with a unique combination of Cat-7/13 speeds at 300 Mbit/s download and 150Mbit/s upload. TAS 2.0 (Transmitting Antenna Switching) smart antenna technology further enhances performance and user experience, by using the best antenna combination to provide optimal signal quality.
High Performance Backed by MediaTek's CorePilot Technology
Powered by MediaTek's CorePilot technology, the P23 and P30 are built on eight Arm Cortex-A53 processors operating up to 2.3 GHz for sustained high performance and unparalleled user experience. Both chipsets feature the new Mali G71 MP2 GPU, clocked at 770MHz in the P23 and 950MHz in the P30, delivering high-end graphics performance.
MediaTek's CorePilot 4.0 technology with power-aware scheduling, thermal management and UX monitoring enables sustained high-performance and reliably consistent user-experience. The P23 and P30 deliver fast performance and connectivity without sacrificing battery life.
In Q4 of 2017, the MediaTek Helio P23 will be available globally and the MediaTek Helio P30 will launch first in China. For more details, visit MediaTek and MediaTek Helio P23 and P30.

How we use phones to avoid human contact
A recent study by Kaspersky Lab has found that 75% of people pick up their connected device to avoid conversing with another human being.
Connected devices are becoming essential to keeping people in contact with each other, but for many they are also a much-needed comfort blanket in a variety of social situations when they do not want to interact with others. A recent survey from Kaspersky Lab has confirmed this trend in behaviour after three-quarters of people (75%) admitted they use a device to pretend to be busy when they don't want to talk to someone else, showing the importance of keeping connected devices protected under all circumstances.
Imagine you've arrived at a bar and you're waiting for your date. The bar is busy, and people are chatting all around you. What do you do now? Strike up a conversation with someone you don't know? Grab your phone from your pocket or handbag until your date arrives to keep yourself busy? Why talk to humans or even make eye-contact with someone else when you can stare at your connected device instead?
The truth is, our use of devices is making it much easier to avoid small talk or even be polite to those around us, and new Kaspersky Lab research has found that 72% of people use one when they do not know what to do in a social situation. They are also the 'go-to' distraction for people even when they aren't trying to look busy or avoid someone's eye. 46% of people admit to using a device just to kill time every day and 44% use it as a daily distraction.
In addition to just being a distraction, devices are also a lifeline to those who would rather not talk directly to another person in day-to-day situations, to complete essential tasks. In fact, nearly a third (31%) of people would prefer to carry out tasks such as ordering a taxi or finding directions to where they need to go via a website and an app, because they find it an easier experience than speaking with another person.
Whether they are helping us avoid direct contact or filling a void in our daily lives, our constant reliance on devices has become a cause for panic when they become unusable. A third (34%) of people worry that they will not be able to entertain themselves if they cannot access a connected device. 12% are even concerned that they won't be able to pretend to be busy if their device is out of action.
Dmitry Aleshin, VP for Product Marketing, Kaspersky Lab said, "The reliance on connected devices is impacting us in more ways than we could have ever expected. There is no doubt that being connected gives us the freedom to make modern life easier, but devices are also vital to help people get through different and difficult social situations. No matter what your 'connection crutch' is, it is essential to make sure your device is online and available when you need it most."
To ensure your device lifeline is always there and in top health – no matter what the reason or situation – Kaspersky Security Cloud keeps your connection safe and secure:
· I want to use my device while waiting for a friend – is it secure to access the bar's Wi-Fi?
With Kaspersky Security Cloud, devices are protected against network threats, even if the user needs to use insecure public Wi-Fi hotspots. This is done through transferring data via an encrypted channel to ensure personal data safety, so users' devices are protected on any connection.
· Oh no! I'm bored but my phone's battery is getting low – what am I going to do?
Users can track their battery level thanks to a countdown of how many minutes are left until their device shuts down in the Kaspersky Security Cloud interface. There is also a wide-range of portable power supplies available to keep device batteries charged while on-the-go.
· I've lost my phone! How will I keep myself entertained now?
Should the unthinkable happen and you lose or have your phone stolen, Kaspersky Security Cloud can track and protect your device from data breaches, for complete peace of mind. Remote lock and locate features ensure your device remains secure until you are reunited.

How far would you go to help your son fulfill his dream of having a child? What if that son fell into a coma, from which you know he'll never emerge? Would you reach inside him to extract and preserve his legacy? If you were Nik Evans's mother, you would—and you'd start a paternity fight unlike any the world has ever seen
Part I: Too Rare to Die
Outside they were smoking cigarettes at a picnic table beside the large white building. One full week had passed. Over the course of that week she'd gone from a former smoker to a Marlboro Lights smoker to a Newport smoker, after she'd run out and began bumming menthols from Nik's friends. For a full week they—but especially she—had held vigil at his bedside. These smoke breaks had become her only connection with the greater world, a world she'd come to resent for its indifference. By now she no longer noticed the iridescent black grackles with yellow eyes and long, tapered beaks flitting across the asphalt. She did not hear the traffic from nearby Interstate 35, nor the air-thumping of a medical helicopter landing here at Austin's University Medical Center Brackenridge, ferrying another unlucky family into the realm of magical thinking she and the others who loved her son now occupied. Some of them were crying; they'd overheard her conversation with the doctors. Missy's T-shirt was wrinkled, her hair greasy; she'd been washing herself and her clothes in a hospital-bathroom sink. She told them there was something she needed to discuss.
Missy was calm and composed. She began by offering her absolute conviction, to each and every one of them, that despite what the doctors were saying, they all knew better. They knew her son Nik. They knew how strong he was, how much he loved them. They'd seen how good, given the circumstances, he continued to look. They'd felt how robustly his heart was beating.
"But if," she said, and here Missy Evans's voice changed, here Missy Evans's life changed, "God forbid, the worst thing possible happens, I want us to have Nikki's child for him."
The last time she'd seen him was on an unseasonably hot, humid Thursday when the winds were blowing up from the Gulf of Mexico. Ever since Nik graduated from high school and moved to Austin to pursue his dream of making movies, Missy made frequent four-hour trips from Dallas just to share a meal with him. That day she told her boss at the Internet advertising agency she'd be working from home. Nik came to the Tex-Mex restaurant straight from his job at a cell-phone shop, untucking his polo shirt at the table. Outside, evening was coming.
Marissa Evans was exceedingly, unapologetically close to both her boys. She'd met their father, Chris Evans, after her family moved to suburban Dallas from San Diego, where she'd spent her childhood. He was two grades her junior, part Greek, with long black hair; he reminded her of California. On April 1, 1987, at the age of 20, she delivered their first son, Ryan. She was beyond shell-shocked after getting pregnant again just a few weeks later. Though both of them knew better, Missy and Chris married, her seven-months-pregnant belly pressing against her wedding dress; they were divorced in less than six years. At the age of 26, Missy dove headfirst into the role she'd evidently been cast all along to play: that of single mother.
On her own, Missy struggled to make her mortgage. For a time she worked as a stewardess for American Airlines, but a harrowing experience high above the Pacific Ocean—when her plane abruptly dropped 1,500 feet—shook her badly. She transferred to the airport's freight division. The hours were long, the pay relatively bad, and she relied extensively on others—especially her mother—for babysitting. One day an old friend mentioned a waitressing job she'd gotten at a strip club downtown. It was basically super skimpy bathing suits, she said, incredible money. Missy laughed dismissively. Then she thought more about it.
For a young woman more comfortable around hippies than strippers, Missy told me she found the work at first profoundly disorienting. Its perks, however, were undeniable. She could put the boys on the bus each morning and greet them when they got off. She looked over their homework and stood on the sidelines during Nik's track meets, clutching Gatorades. As far as anyone knew, she worked as a waitress at Black-eyed Pea, a sort of Texas T.G.I. Friday's; she lived, in essence, a double life. For a time she partied with her coworkers, drinking and using cocaine. The few men she dated ended up cheating on her. She began referring to her family as the Three Musketeers.
By their teenage years, Ryan was more stereotypically aloof, Nik more sensitive and compassionate. In the stands at Friday-night football games—religious experiences in North Texas—he used half his notebook to record plays and statistics and the other half to write poetry. He ran cross-country; at five feet nine inches, he weighed just 140 pounds. He idolized the gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson and had tattooed on his arms Thompson's line too weird to live, too rare to die.
Missy and Nik talked on the phone constantly; they shared one endless text-message conversation. That day at the Tex-Mex restaurant their conversation, as usual, swung wildly. They talked about Nik's girlfriend and his plans to attend film school in Los Angeles that fall; with his unflagging encouragement, Missy was moving west, too. Nik sipped his Red Bull and vodka. He told Missy how grateful he was that she'd had him young. He said, as he often did, that he wanted the same: to be a young father. He wanted three boys.
"And I know their names already," he said.
Missy knew but asked anyway.
"Hunter, Tod, and Van," Nik said.
Missy smiled. She offered that three girls would be fine, too. She told him how wonderful a father she knew he'd make, no matter when. He'd been 21 for a month.
The following Friday, at 2 A.M. on March 27, 2009, inside the tourist trap Coyote Ugly, Nikolas Evans and his friend Hugo Lagunas put down their last drinks. Over the course of the night, they'd gotten very drunk, hopping from Maggie Mae's to the Thirsty Nickel to Coyote. Outside, lines were forming at the usual late-night grub spots along 6th Street. Nik and Hugo waded into the teetering masses, the girls in skinny jeans and tall boots, the good ol' boys with cowboy hats, the hippies, hipsters, and guys like Nik, in his green T-shirt and baggy jeans, so inconspicuous as to seem almost invisible.
In the middle of an intersection, they exchanged words with a passing group. As that group moved on, and as Nik and Hugo shuffled outside a pool of orange streetlight, another, smaller group approached. A man—later described as a tall black male wearing a dark sports coat, a shiny red shirt, and a gold chain—cursed at Hugo, then hit him in the face. Hugo fell, got back up. He and Nik retreated. The man followed. Nik stopped.The man threw another punch, connecting with the front of Nik's head. He collapsed, his head slapping the asphalt. Inside his skull a wound began to blossom.
Nik arrived at Brackenridge at 2:59 A.M. A team of four doctors and two nurses met him. They cut off his clothes, threaded an IV into his arm, and drew myriad vials of blood. He vomited forcefully. They gave him antinausea medication. He scored well in standardized criteria for neurological status: a 13 out of a possible 15, suggesting "minor" brain injury. He was, however, confused; he did not know where he was or why, nor did he know dates or times. He told them repeatedly to "chill." At 3:25 they slid his body into the doughnut hole of a CT scanner. The results gave some cause for concern.
A small, nine-millimeter-thick bleed had developed in the space between his brain's outermost protective membrane and his skull. Before going to the ICU, Nik vomited again. A nurse conducted checks of his neurological status every fifteen minutes. At 5:30 he could say only his last name when prompted. His nurse shone a light into his pupils. The right, she noted immediately, was "blown"—huge and unresponsive—indicating the potential for profound neurological loss.
An anesthesiologist arrived and inserted a tube down Nik's throat so that a machine could begin breathing for him. He was given a powerful drug called Mannitol, which leaches water from the brain to reduce swelling. An emergency CT scan proved ominous; the masses of bleeding were expanding. In the operating room, a neurosurgeon sawed away a portion of the right side of his skull and, over the course of an hour, removed the largest bleed and attempted to staunch several smaller ones; he inserted a drain to remove any additional fluids. He closed the skull with screws and wrapped Nik's head.
A repeat scan showed that the surgery had been a success; the worst of the bleeding had been removed or stopped. Back in the ICU at 8:30 A.M., the nurse lifted Nik's eyelids; each of his pupils was now reactive and symmetrical. He was able to wiggle his toes, even give a thumbs-up with both hands.
Shortly after 11 A.M., eight hours after he'd been brought in by ambulance, Missy raced into his room, breathless and all but hysterical. She went immediately to her son. He opened his eyes and, seeing her, yanked violently at the tube in his throat.
At the station just across from his room, the nurse repeated, in what would become a mantra, that Nik's prognosis was unclear, that brain injuries are by their nature fickle and unpredictable. The next twenty-four to forty-eight hours would be critical. Missy was scared but optimistic. She asked several questions: Had he been able to talk? What had he said? She called Nik's dad, Chris, and was soon joined by a few of Nik's friends, her mother, and Ryan, the overflow spilling out into the ICU waiting room. Missy sat in a chair beside Nik's bed.
Tubes, hoses, and drains ran from his body like tentacles. His eyes were closed, his chest rising and falling in sync with the whooshing and clicking of the ventilator. Throughout Friday, neurological checks every fifteen minutes were promising. His pupils were symmetrical and brisk. Just before midnight, however, Nik's nurse found him unresponsive, his body appearing to posture rigidly. She called his doctors. An emergency CT scan showed no significant changes to his original hemorrhages but detected so-called blossoming contusions, or additional areas of blood pooling.
On Saturday, Nik was fed liquid nutrition through a tube in his stomach. He was dressed in a vest through which cold water circulated to significantly reduce his body temperature; he became cold to the touch and, despite paralytic drugs, occasionally shivered reflexively, horrifying his mother. He was now in a full medically induced coma. Over the next few days, his condition did not improve. By Friday, a week after he'd been admitted, his body no longer responded to pain stimuli. In her notes his nurse wrote that Nik's family remained at his bedside, "hopeful and vigilant."
At one point, two people came to the room and asked to speak with Missy in the hallway. They told her they were from the Texas Organ Sharing Alliance and asked whether she'd consider donating Nik's organs to help others in need, in the event he passed away. Missy grew incensed. She told them her son was not dying. She stormed off, shouting over her shoulder for them to fuck themselves.
On Saturday, the neurologist spoke candidly with Missy. He said he believed Nik's brain was already dead. He explained how it was possible for his heart to continue beating even after his cognitive ability had been destroyed; with the ventilator breathing for him, his heartbeat was essentially a physiological reflex. He explained brain death. Nik met the first two criteria—coma and a series of failed neurological-status tests. His doctors wanted to move forward with the third, an apnea test, in which a patient is removed from the ventilator for ten minutes to determine whether he can breathe on his own. The neurologist said that even if Nik were to miraculously live, the damage done to his brain over the past eight days would render him unrecognizable. He told her he was nevertheless confident Nik could not and would not survive. Missy's eyes welled up almost as soon as he'd begun talking. And though she'd stood there nodding her head throughout, she'd heard very little. In her mind, she told me, there was one overwhelming thought: She wanted—she needed—Nik's sperm.
Outside the hospital, at the picnic table, she acknowledged how crazy the idea likely sounded. She said they could get an egg donor and a surrogate. No one said anything at first. They stared at her.
She went on. She told them how the last time she'd seen him, a little more than two weeks ago, he'd spoken again of his longing for children; she reminded them that they'd all had similar conversations with him. They'd decided to donate his organs anyway; why not take something from him that would otherwise go to waste? She spoke of making "Nikki's dream come true."
Again no one answered. And at first they did not take her seriously. But as she pressed her case over the next several hours, they came to see her idea as sensible, in its own way. None of them had a serious objection.
Inside the ICU, Missy approached Nik's medical team. She told them of her plan. They rebuffed her at once, calling the idea too outrageous to even bring up before the hospital's board. She then asked, should her son be declared officially brain-dead, if he could remain on life-support indefinitely. The nurses were confused by the question; they told her no. They reminded her she was grieving, that it was natural for her to be struggling.
In Nik's hospital room, Missy sat across from her son, trying her hardest to stifle her tears, desperate that he not hear her. Nik had lost some weight, but looked otherwise unchanged. Missy ran her fingers across the side of his face, across the stubble these days had brought, around the tubes unfurling from his mouth. She whispered to him in his ear that she would love him forever.
At 12:55 P.M. on April 5, 2009, nine days after he was admitted, Nikolas Coltan Evans—still legally and medically alive—was removed from his ventilator. His chest fell flat. He did not breathe. Over ten minutes, his blood's oxygen-saturation level dropped to 72 percent. Carbon dioxide levels rose precipitously, as did acidity. His body was dying. The family stood there watching. At 1:15 P.M., the pulmonologist reached across Nik's body for Missy's hand. He took it in his own. "I'm sorry," he said. "He's gone now."
Instantly the family came undone. And as they were all standing there sobbing, hugging, literally struggling to catch their breaths, the pulmonologist turned the ventilator back on so that Nik's chest once again rose and fell, to keep his organs viable.
Eventually, everyone but Missy left the hospital. She went outside to the picnic table, where the grief that unfurled from her was fully and totally primal. When, an hour later, she could compose herself enough to walk, she went back to the ICU. Nik's body lay there as before. What else was she to do? She climbed in bed with him. She put her hand on his chest and felt his heart beating. For the first time in a week, she fell soundly asleep.
Missy awoke that night when the nurses came to hang IVs and again each hour when they returned to shake his body to keep his blood moving. Meanwhile, organ recipients from around Texas were reporting to their individual hospitals; their doctors were en route to Austin. The next day, the nurses came again. Missy stood up as they unlocked the wheels of his bed and pushed him out.
The harvesting went on in the OR throughout the afternoon. One by one, each surgeon arrived at the hospital and scrubbed in to collect his organ—kidneys, pancreas, liver—leaving the heart for last; finally it, too, was arrested, clamped, and cut free. Nik's body was then sewn up and zipped into a bag, which was wheeled to the morgue, where, pending an autopsy the following morning, it was to be kept several degrees above 39.2 Fahrenheit, the temperature Missy had learned was necessary to preserve sperm postmortem.
The next morning, at around 6 A.M., attorney Mark Mueller was asleep in his bor shorts at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles when his iPhone rang. He did not know the number but recognized the area code—817—as from the Dallas area. It had been a long night; his tight jeans and western-style button-down lay thrown over a chair. For some reason, he answered.
"Mr. Mueller," the female voice said. She identified herself as Missy Evans. She said that a mutual friend, a lawyer in Dallas, had suggested she call him. She began crying. She explained that her 21-year-old son Nikolas had just been killed. She told him she was trying to harvest his sperm before it was too late. She asked him whether he had any experience in this area of the law.
Mueller snickered: "Is this some sort of fucking joke?"
Missy explained that it was not. She told him how the hospital had rebuffed her. She said she was worried that Nik's body was being kept in the morgue at a temperature too high to preserve his sperm. She said she had nowhere else to turn and that time was running out.
Mueller—58 and exceedingly long and lean—had flown from Austin to Los Angeles to screen a movie he'd produced and to woo investors. He was badly hungover. Nonetheless, he found himself feeling sorry for Missy and her plight, strange as it all seemed. He told her he'd make some calls and get back to her.
Mueller got out of bed and immediately called his firm in Austin. Realizing it was potentially a very high-profile case, he said they'd be taking the job pro bono. One by one, Mueller doled out the assignments. His senior lawyer would handle any courtroom appearances. The office's in-house nurse needed to research all relevant medical issues. An emergency hearing was scheduled for that same day in probate court, which handles issues concerning death and property. And while Missy filed paperwork securing her as Nik's after-death guardian, Mueller called a reporter at the Austin American-Statesman.
The nurse learned that the sperm needed to be retrieved within twenty-four hours of death, unless it was stored at the proper temperature; even then, sperm viability diminishes significantly with each passing minute. A researcher found no existing state or national legislation specifically addressing ownership of posthumous reproductive materials, and aside from a very few isolated cases, the issue had been broached primarily by wives seeking their deceased husbands' sperm.
At 1:30 P.M., Missy walked into probate court with members of her legal team, one of them wearing jeans and a T-shirt, too busy to go home and change. On the other side of the courtroom sat the county's lawyers, dressed in suits. From the bench, Judge Guy Herman, 62 years old, peered over his reading glasses at Missy and told her he wanted her to know how sorry he was for her loss. He asked her if she was okay, if there was anything she needed. She was shocked by his kindness, and thanked him. He said he'd had a chance to review the paperwork. He asked the county's lawyers whether they had any objections to Missy Evans's motion. Surprisingly, they did not. "Very well, then," Herman said.
With a casualness that belied the precedent-setting nature of his decision, Judge Herman ruled that Nikolas Evans's sperm was, like the rest of his organs and tissues, the exclusive provenance of his next of kin, his mother, Missy. He ordered the Travis County medical examiner to keep his body at the appropriate temperature and to allow Missy's representatives access to harvest his sperm as soon as it was possible. He wished Missy good luck and banged down his gavel.
News spread quickly of the strange case in Central Texas; immediately, Missy was rendered a caricature: "Sperm Mom." All the usual suspects—Perez Hilton and Howard Stern—weighed in, but so did some less usual ones, including a university professor who speculated about Missy's emotional needs for a "replacement child." Her hometown newspaper, the state's second-largest, The Dallas Morning News, called her "ghoulish" and "bizarre," and editorialized that "increasingly, the only solid rule of bioethics is: If it can be done, it will be done. Is this really the kind of world we want to live in—and die in?" News crews rumbled across Austin to find Missy. Her story was picked up in brief form and retold in newspapers and blogs and chat Web sites around the world, its appeal singularly gothic, even Frankensteinian. At one point Missy's cell phone rang. It was an evangelical minister. "I wanted to let you know," he told her, "that child will be the devil's spawn."
As the sun set over the Texas Hill Country that day, however, more than twenty-four hours after Nikolas Evans's body had been disconnected from life support, all of that struck Missy as immaterial. On the Mueller law firm's sweeping veranda, she and her team juggled beer bottles and cigarettes, their Yellow Pages opened to U for urologists. On the rare occasions they could get any answer at all, each and every doctor said he was sorry; there was no way he could help.
Elizabeth Houser, M.D., was in the operating room the next day when Missy's mother called. A blond-haired 53-year-old urologist, Houser had read about Nikolas's death in the paper. In spite of the rancor by then swirling around Missy, upon receiving the call she'd thought of the oath she'd sworn years ago, Above all do no harm: How could I harm this boy by granting his mother's wish? She called Tom Turner, an Austin embryologist with whom she frequently worked, and asked him whether he'd be willing to assist her. He agreed.
Some fifty hours after Nik's body had been removed from life support, Houser and Turner arrived at the morgue. They were led to a wall of metal doors, one of which was opened so that Nik's body could be pulled out.
Houser went to work on the gurney there. She had no surgical team, so she did the preparatory work herself. She made the incision in the scrotum—there was no heartbeat and therefore virtually no blood flow—and removed each of Nik's testes whole, including the structures around them, especially the epididymal tubules, where sperm is stored. She dropped them into a liquid that nourishes sperm.
Turner drove the testes back to his lab in a group of white limestone office buildings off the highway north of Austin. Inside, he dissected the tissues and deposited them into solution in two-inch-long plastic vials. He packed them in liquid nitrogen. By the following morning, all that would remain of Nikolas Evans's physical existence—the cellular material containing the code for the development of his offspring—arrived at California Cryobank, where for a long time it would sit frozen and undisturbed.
Part II: Born Again
At 9:45 P.M. on March 3, 2004, Russ Renaud was standing in front of his microwave in his two-bedroom house forty miles west of San Antonio when a crushing pain bore down on his chest. He collapsed. Unbeknownst to him, a bit of plaque had become lodged at a bend in one of his coronary arteries, a spot where the arterial tunnel was profoundly narrowed. By the time he arrived at the emergency room with his wife, Eve, the chambers of his heart were beating in opposition, racing, succumbing to irregular patterns incapable of profusing his body—and most importantly his brain—with blood. A doctor placed two paddles on him, shouted for everyone to move away from the bed. As he repeated the process, and as Renaud lay in the bed ostensibly unconscious—his mouth agape and eyes closed, his body jerking with each electrocution—in his mind he saw a vivid and total view of the room and of himself lying in it, the doctors and nurses working furiously over him. What he felt was ecstasy.
Russ, then 64, awoke many hours later at a hospital in downtown San Antonio with no other recollection, not even of the helicopter ride that had brought him there. He'd suffered devastating damage to his heart muscle and function. His doctors approximated its life span at three to five years.
And indeed, by February 2008, after months in and out of the hospital, Russ was told by his doctors that there was no treatment left but transplant. They cautioned that it wasn't a sure thing: Nearly one in five of those on Texas's heart-transplant list die before an organ becomes available. Russ endured extensive testing before joining the list in June. By then he was dying. Reduced from 165 to 130 pounds, his skin translucent, he spent most days at home, attached to an IV, peeing in a bottle beside his bed. When the phone rang at two o'clock in the morning of April 6, 2009, Russ was much too sick to get up. Eve answered. She screamed.
Speeding through the dark scrubland to San Antonio, ecstatic, anxious, and finally remorseful, they joined hands in the light of the dashboard, praying for the brave family somewhere in Texas whose generosity might enable Russ to live, praying, though they could not know it, for a mother lying 100 miles away in a hospital bed beside the body of her brain-dead 21-year-old son.<

"Spelled invitation wrong."
Ar least you have enough sense to see that and not waste your time. We can see how unjust that is. Problem is Fred too long of a diagnosis means disease is never fully cured.
It has been for the most virulant ones - especially the ones that want her dead. Providing evidence that a 'god' exists is on the believer's onus. LOVE IT !!. They are the face of every ism devised, they are all the same category of crime, human rights abuse, molestation, threats, assault, battery, enslavement, rape, child rape, molestation, demons, devils, satan, Lucifer, and dark angels are all inventions of the Catholic church.
Dountry for years now, and might as well be invisible. I would take Shelly all around the world and have a big boat. What made the Cherokee Agejcy the Choctaws interesting was that they adopted the practice of Old lesbian tribbing Slavery so that they would fit into the White Man's culture.
You must put reason on hold and accept that what you are being told about god is right, with no evidence to back it up, you have to decide to ignore reason and be a Theist. Another willfully blind person. what a way to make a living Not smart enough to be a cop.
