Callaroga Shark Media. Hello again,
I'm Johnny Mack with five good news stories.

2
00:00:12.519 --> 00:00:16.079
Hey, you're gonna walk along a
frozen lake, bring your dog.

3
00:00:16.120 --> 00:00:20.239
An elderly man was rescued from the
icy waters of a Michigan lake with the

4
00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:25.000
help of his dog. In a
news release, Michigan State Police said authorities

5
00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:28.359
responded to a nine one one call
for sixty five year old man. He

6
00:00:28.399 --> 00:00:31.800
had fallen through the ice. When
he fell, Ruby, the dog,

7
00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:35.159
was with him. So when the
rescuers couldn't reach the man because of the

8
00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:37.159
icy conditions, you know, you
don't want to fall through the lake and

9
00:00:37.240 --> 00:00:40.840
have two people in the lake,
he asked the man to send Ruby over

10
00:00:40.880 --> 00:00:45.359
to him. Ruby ran towards the
rescuer, who attached a rescue disc to

11
00:00:45.439 --> 00:00:48.960
Ruby's collar and asked the man to
call Ruby back. Ruby ran back to

12
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:52.759
the owner with the rescue disc.
The rescuer guided the man on how to

13
00:00:52.840 --> 00:00:55.600
use the rescue disc. Rescuers on
the site were able to pull the man

14
00:00:55.640 --> 00:00:58.759
to safety. He was transported by
ambulance to a local hospital for treatment.

15
00:00:59.079 --> 00:01:03.880
Nice job for Ruby. University of
Pennsylvania doctor has hooked a genetically modified pig

16
00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:07.120
liver up to a brain dead patient, and we're able to have the organs

17
00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:11.840
successfully filter the man's blood for seventy
two hours, making the technique a potential

18
00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:15.239
bridge for patients as they wait for
a human liver transplant. Wow, that's

19
00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:19.719
amazing. Unlike previous procedures where doctors
transplanted pig organs directly into the human body,

20
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:26.079
these doctors chose to perform an extra
corporeal perfusion, in which the pig

21
00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:29.719
liver is hooked up outside the body. Doctors had the pig liver stored in

22
00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:34.359
a mini fridge sized device that is
usually used to keep human organs alive and

23
00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:37.879
perfused with blood for eventual transplant to
a patient. They then hooked up the

24
00:01:37.879 --> 00:01:41.799
pig liver device to the brain dead
patient and we're able to have the contraption

25
00:01:41.879 --> 00:01:45.680
filtered blood successfully with no sign of
inflammation in the pig organ. In a

26
00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:48.680
statement, one of the surgeons said, any time a patient dies while waiting

27
00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:51.840
for transplant, it's a tragedy and
we're always working to develop new ways to

28
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:55.879
extend their lives. Great job there. A new app can reduce the impact

29
00:01:55.920 --> 00:01:59.760
of tonitis. You know tonightis that's
that like ringing? Sound or buzzing you

30
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:01.359
get in your ears. A lot
of us have its. There's no cure.

31
00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:07.640
There are some ways to manage tonightis, including cognitive behavioral therapy that helps

32
00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:09.439
people reduce their emotional connection of the
sound, allowing the brain to learn to

33
00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:14.199
tune it out. However, that
could be expensive, So twenty eight people

34
00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:16.560
did a study. Fourteen or asked
to use this new app's virtual coach for

35
00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:21.360
ten minutes a day for eight weeks. The other fourteen were given similar instructions

36
00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:24.919
with four a half hour video calls
with an actual psychologist. The results revealed

37
00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:29.479
that six participants given the app alone
and nine who were also given video calls

38
00:02:29.560 --> 00:02:34.639
showed a clinically significant decrease in the
distress caused by tonightis good news if you're

39
00:02:34.680 --> 00:02:38.879
a cat stuck in a tree.
Professional tree climber Stephen Murrow is rescuing cats.

40
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:42.879
He started doing this a few years
ago when friends told him about a

41
00:02:42.879 --> 00:02:46.319
cat that was stuck in the tree. Now this isn't totally random. Steven

42
00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:47.960
owns a tree service. He said, I've always been an animal lover.

43
00:02:49.199 --> 00:02:52.120
I've always been an advocate for helping
others when you can, so I jumped

44
00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:55.919
on the opportunity to help. He's
been offering his cat tree rescuing service free

45
00:02:55.919 --> 00:03:00.919
of charge since twenty twenty three.
He alone has rescued thirty nine cats.

46
00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:04.800
Take that, Superman, and good
news. If you like pasta, the

47
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:07.479
Washington Post tells us, even if
you're watching carbs, pasta can be a

48
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:10.840
healthy dish if you take certain steps. They re minus pasta's quick to cook

49
00:03:10.879 --> 00:03:14.000
candy, to keep it the pantry, and it needs a solution for the

50
00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:16.520
times when you're just not sure what
to make for dinner. But because pasta's

51
00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:20.719
hind carbs, some people think it's
bad for your weight in your health,

52
00:03:20.719 --> 00:03:23.719
and it doesn't have to be.
Aaron Morris is the chief clinical dietitian at

53
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:28.599
the UCLA Health Center and says pasta
is not deserving of its rep as a

54
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:32.400
fattening food nor carbs in general.
She's got some tips. They include measure

55
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:36.840
portions. The serving of pasta's two
ounces dry or about one cup cooked.

56
00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:39.080
More says it depends on the shape
of the pasta, so you better measure

57
00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:44.240
it dryballing it. A cup of
cooked pasta is roughly the size of a

58
00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:47.159
baseball. Tip Number two, don't
overcook that breaks the bonds between the protein

59
00:03:47.199 --> 00:03:52.280
and the starch, that keeps the
pasta's GI low and helps you feel satisfied

60
00:03:52.319 --> 00:03:55.800
for longer. Cooking times vary,
and third tip, add vegetables. I'm

61
00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:59.560
gonna blow off all three of those
tips and I'm heading to the olive garden

62
00:03:59.560 --> 00:04:02.400
because i just heard the Fasta's good
for you. THO should five good news

63
00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:04.800
stories for to day. If you
enjoy the programme tell a friend about it.

64
00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:06.840
They might like it too. You
have a great day.
