It is not news that Bugatti makes very expensive automobiles. A Bugatti Chiron, the brand's basic model, costs about million. Bugatti's latest creation, though, sets a new bar in price and exclusivity. Bugatti's La Voiture Noire cost €16.7 million, or almost million, including taxes. Before taxes, the car cost .5 million.According to Bugatti, La Voiture Noire is the most expensive new car ever sold and only one will be made. Bugatti did not reveal the identity of the buyer. It is someone with an enormous attachment to the Bugatti brand, the automaker said. It's also clearly someone with immense financial resources.Bugatti's new La Voiture Noire is designed to recall the Bugatti Type 57 SC Atlantic of the 1930s. Only four of those cars were made and, today, they're among the most valuable cars in the world. They can be worth more than million, according to Hagerty Insurance, a company that tracks collector car values. One of those cars became known as "La Voiture Noire" which means simply, the black car. Only three are known to survive. The fourth seems to have disappeared shortly before the German invasion of France during World War II. Its whereabouts remain unknown.The Type 57 SC Atlantic was designed by Jean Bugatti, son of Bugatti founder Ettore Bugatti, at a time when the bodies for most high-end cars were created by separate body makers rather than by the automobile companies themselves. 1443

Imagine knowing you have pancreatic cancer and your doctor is unwilling to tell you how bad it is because they¡¯re uncomfortable.That¡¯s the situation Dr. Ron Naito, a now-retired physician, found himself in this past August.¡°It¡¯s never an easy task to tell someone they have a terminal illness. How can it be?¡± Naito says, sitting on a couch in his home in Portland, Oregon. ¡°I mean it brings your own mortality into the picture for one thing.¡±Naito has stage 4 pancreatic cancer, and as a doctor himself, he knows full well what that means. It can mean a person only has months to live.¡°Of all the major cancers, the one with most dire of all prognoses is probably pancreatic,¡± Naito explains. ¡°Particularly what I have, which is stage 4. And I don¡¯t think he felt comfortable telling me or discussing it.¡±Not only was one specialist unwilling to discuss the severity of his illness, but Naito found out about the size of his tumor from a second specialist in a less than optimal way, as well. He overheard the doctor talking to a medical student just outside his open exam room door.¡°They were walking this way and they said, ¡®5 centimeters.¡¯ He told the medical student. Then, they were walking the other way,¡± he recalls. ¡°And I heard the words, ¡®very bad,¡¯ and I knew it was me, obviously. I know that pancreatic cancer if they exceed 3 centimeters, it¡¯s a negative sign.¡±The doctor never did talk to him face to face about the precise size of his tumor.Naito says he didn¡¯t think it was ¡°very professional,¡± but even so, he has no anger toward his doctors. Instead he says it highlights how easy it is for a doctor to be careless.¡°They¡¯re not uncaring. It¡¯s just that they don¡¯t have any experience or training. Nobody¡¯s there to guide them,¡± Naito says. ¡°And there¡¯s no book on this. I mean you can¡¯t go to the medical school library and check out a book on how can you deliver a dire diagnosis to patients. That book does not exist. I don¡¯t think.¡±That¡¯s why Naito not only choosing to speak out in the months he has left--despite his weakness--but it¡¯s also why he¡¯s given Oregon Health and Science University¡¯s Center for Ethics in Healthcare a grant so people like Dr. Katie Stowers can teach the next generation how to better deliver news to someone who¡¯s dying.¡°Unfortunately, Dr. Naito¡¯s experience is not an anomaly,¡± Stowers says.Stowers is the inaugural ¡°Ronald Naito Director of Serious Illness Education¡± at OHSU. Medical students under Stowers¡¯ guidance must now pass a unique final exam, delivering grim news in mock scenarios.¡°It¡¯s not that doctors don¡¯t want to do better. It¡¯s not that doctors are bad or inhumane, it¡¯s that they just haven¡¯t been taught how to do this the right way,¡± Stowers says.Naito, who has outlived his prognosis but estimates he may only have about six months left, says doing it the right way all comes down to one thing.¡°When you¡¯re talking to your patient that has terminal illness, you have to realize your doctor and patient roles become a little bit blurred,¡± he says, fighting back tear. ¡°Because, basically, you¡¯re just two souls. You¡¯re two human beings meeting at a very deep level. You¡¯re in charge with giving this other person the most devastating news they will receive in their lifetime potentially.¡±It¡¯s a very crucial moment, Naito says. 3314

In central Missouri, there¡¯s a city of about 5,000 residents. But the small community is getting some national attention, thanks to one of its beloved residents. Lyn Woolford is not only Ashland, Missouri¡¯s police chief, he ensures the children of Ashland get to school safely by directing traffic every morning. "Leadership includes participation," Woolford says. Crossing guard and police chief are just a few of the many hats Woolford wears. But even with so much responsibility as the newly appointed police chief, Woolford says he couldn¡¯t give up his crossing guard gig after six years. ¡°Evidentially I have a knack for this, and I do it well,¡± he says. That's why the school got together this year to let Chief Woolford know they appreciate his commitment. They nominated him for a special recognition, and Woolford won! The chief was named ¡°America¡¯s Favorite Crossing Guard¡± by the group Safe Kids Worldwide. His award earned the Southern Boone School District a ,000 prize to continue keeping roads safe. 1032
