Right now, nearly 2 million people are living with limb loss in the United States. But new technology is bringing hope, with a prosthetic that responds to what a person is thinking. Whether it's picking out socks or picking up LEGO blocks, Mario Gasbarro seems to be doing it all just fine, using what his kids affectionately call his “robot arm.” “They seem to enjoy it more than my old arm,” Gasbarro jokes. At just 34 years old, Gasbarro’s doctors told him the lump that had been growing on his elbow was a malignant tumor. As it grew, his doctors determined amputation was his best option. “I don't need my left arm to be able to love my kids and love my wife and to be there for them, so that was always a priority,” Gasbarro says. Now, he’s living with this prosthesis, which moves based on how he thinks and moves his muscles. “I want to open my hand. I think, ‘OK, open my hand and move the muscles to open my hand,’ and I just need to replicate that muscle movement each time I want to try to open my hand,” Gasbarro says.Dr. David Schnur with Presbyterian/ St. Luke’s Medical Center worked with Gasbarro through the process. “Instead of the patient learning the prosthesis, the prosthesis really learns the patient,” Dr. Schnur describes of the prosthetic arm. Through a process called targeted muscle reinnervation, Dr. Schnur attached the nerves from Gasbarro’s forearm that power the hand to muscles in his elbow. “And then what happens is when Mario thinks about closing his hand, instead of causing a muscle to fire down his forearm, it causes a muscle to fire up in his in his biceps,” Dr. Schnur describes. Those signals are then picked up by his prothesis through pattern recognition. “He contracts the muscles. That makes sense for him to close the hand and the computer on the prostheses picks that up and is then able to convert that specific signal into a hand closed,” Dr. Schnur says. Gasbarro says it's not second nature just yet, but he's getting there with practice.“I’ve never felt limited, or like, I’m not able to do anything,” Gasbarro says. 2084

Rapid City, S.D. — South Dakota has a meth problem, and it wants you to know about it.The state came out with a new slogan last week, and it's got people buzzing. “It’s everywhere, it’s in Rapid City, it’s in small-town South Dakota. It’s in Belle Fourche, it’s in Buffalo," said Bryan Hentkowski, who is recovering from his meth addiction. “It touches everybody, in one way or the other,” said Tim Kelly, who lives in Rapid City, South Dakota. “Your neighbors are doing it, people’s parents are doing it, it’s everywhere,” Hentkowski said.Hentkowski lives in Rapid City, South Dakota. He is in rehab recovering from his meth addiction — and he’s far from the only one. Meth arrests in South Dakota have tripled since 2013. But the state's not ignoring the problem. In fact, they’re on it. The state's new slogan show's people saying, "I'm on meth," and, "I'm on meth too." There’s no doubt the state's new campaign is effective. people are buzzing about it from coast to coast. “It did in 24 hours what we’ve been trying to do for several years and that is, raise awareness of the methamphetamine crisis in South Dakota,” said Kevin Thom, the sheriff in Pennington County. He likes the campaign. "You know some of it is kind of mean spirited, the comments, frankly there’s some pretty hilarious and creative memes that are out there on the internet. I think it’s clearly a net positive,” Thom said. “It’s free, it’s free when people are talking about you on social media and advertising cost a lot of money,” said Vicki Lane, a professor of marketing at University of Colorado Denver. She says the state is using a controversial slogan to get people talking about the problem. “Controversy in particular has a risk that it will backfire. Because it is controversial that people will have a negative perception or negative reaction or negative attitude and maybe even a negative emotion,” Lane said. And there's definitely some of that to be found in Rapid City. “Do you want my honest opinion? I think it's stupid," Hentkowski said. “The PR man ... he was probably on meth when he did it,” said Joe Utter, who lives in Rapid City. “Could be a stroke of genius to get people talking about it, but on the other hand, it’s gonna make us look a little stupid," Kelly said. “Initially, I thought it was pretty ridiculous, it does stop and make you think. There is a meth problem in South Dakota,” said Kristin Kirsch, from Spearfish, South Dakota. Broadhead, the company that created the campaign for the state, said in a statement, “We are proud of this work, and as far as we’re concerned, the campaign is doing its job. It’s generating conversation, it’s soliciting all kinds of reactions and, yes, it’s making people uncomfortable.” While the conversation might be getting started for people at home, it’s been the reality for a while for Pennington County Deputy Dustin Meyer. “We’re going to go serve some warrants on some subjects that are felony drug charges, specifically possession of methamphetamine,” Meyer said. The Pennington County sheriff's department averaged 23 meth arrests a week last year, a third of the total arrests in the state. Thom appreciates the hard work of his deputies, but he knows it’s not the answer. “A stronger focus on the prevention, a stronger focus on the treatment," Thom said. "I mean, you have to have vigorous enforcement, and we’ve done a good job because we’re arresting people in record numbers, but it hasn’t put a dent in the problem.” 3505
