Twenty-three and a college graduate, Angela Pennella's life was just beginning. But a split-second moment marked the beginning of a life forever changed."It was a day I didn't see coming," said Pennella. "There was a lot of emotion. I was angry, really sad. I lost most of my 20s from that day that was almost fatal."She was five minutes away from home when a reckless driver crossed the double yellow lines going 55 MPH in a 35-MPH zone, hitting her head-on."I don't remember much of that day at all, but that's the day that really changed my life," said Pennella.She was cut out of the vehicle and flown to the hospital with a lacerated liver, punctured lung, and four broken ribs, ultimately receiving over 1,000 stitches to her face and body. But it's the injury you can't see that lives with her 18 years later."The brain is this powerful tool, so beautiful. But it can also really get you down and bring you to a place that isn't who you are," said Pennella,She suffered a severe brain injury and had to re-learn how to talk again. Today, she still struggles with memory problems and mental exhaustion after everyday tasks."Once the brain is injured, it is hard to reverse that injury," said Ian Grover, medical director for the Hyperbaric and Wound Care Center at UC San Diego Medical Center.Researchers at UC San Diego Health have joined a national research study called Hyperbaric Oxygen Brain Injury Treatment (HOBIT) to assess whether the approach might also benefit patients with severe brain injuries."Because there's such time urgency, we need to get patients identified, stabilized, and get them into that hyperbaric chamber within eight hours," said Todd Costantini, the trauma medical director at UC San Diego Health. Traditionally used to treat wounds and decompression sickness in divers, patients in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber receive 100 percent oxygen in a pressurized room."The theory is that the hyperbaric oxygen will one, decrease swelling of the brain after it's been injured. And number two, it will deliver oxygen to the injured tissue," Costantini said.It's the first time this therapy is being used to treat patients in the hours after injury. Because they may still be unconscious, the study required special permission from the FDA. Participating hospitals are doing outreach to inform and educate their communities on the research."In medicine, we’ve made a lot of progress treating cancer, sepsis, those kinds of things. But in the last 20-30 years, we haven’t made significant improvement in the treatment of traumatic brain injuries,” said Grover.Because of cost and the staff required to operate this equipment; chambers are disappearing from centers nationwide. But with a brain injury occurring every 15 seconds in the United States, doctors at the participating hospitals hope the study’s results will be enough to bring the chambers back."Just to see how it would've reduced the inflammation, maybe I wouldn't have been in the ICU as long, or gained consciousness back faster," said Pennella, after learning about the research.Pennella is now an advocate, helping other brain injury survivors cope through the San Diego Brain Injury Foundation, where she is also on the board of directors. "After I went through my injury and recovery, I knew I wanted to do inspirational speaking and writing anyway that I could to just share my story to bring hope," said Pennella.Meditation, prayer, exercise, and gratitude journaling have been instrumental in her recovery. Pennella consistently practices cognitive fitness to help keep her memory fresh."If you think you can, you're halfway there," said Pennella. 3653

VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis says the Christmas season provides reason for hope amid the difficulties of the coronavirus pandemic. Francis noted during his Sunday blessing that the Vatican’s Christmas tree had gone up this week in St. Peter’s Square, and work is underway to build the life-size Nativity scene next to it. Francis pointed to the tree from his studio window over the square and said such symbols of Christmas “are signs of hope, especially in this difficult period.” He urged the faithful to recall the true meaning of Christmas and lend a hand to the neediest. He said, “there’s no pandemic, there’s no crisis that can extinguish this light.” 670

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey knows the tech world has a problem. He's asking big questions like "How do we earn peoples' trust?""We realize that more and more people have fear of companies like ours," Dorsey said in an in-depth interview with CNN. He cited the "perceived power that companies like ours have over how they live and even think every single day."The following day, President Trump proved his point."Social Media is totally discriminating against Republican/Conservative voices. Speaking loudly and clearly for the Trump Administration, we won't let that happen," the president tweeted Saturday morning.Trump is tapping into a widely held belief on the right about biased tech companies. The claims have even become an issue on the campaign trail. "They are trying to silence us" is the new rallying cry.Companies like Facebook and Twitter say they understand the perception, but deny that their algorithms and employees discriminate against any particular political point of view."Are we doing something according to political ideology or viewpoints? We are not. Period," Dorsey said Friday. "We do not look at content with regards to political viewpoint or ideology. We look at behavior."But he knows some people do not believe him."I think we need to constantly show that we are not adding our own bias, which I fully admit is left, is more left-leaning," Dorsey said."We need to remove all bias from how we act and our policies and our enforcement and our tools," he added.In the interview, Dorsey kept coming back to the need for transparency, in much the same way that journalists talk about trying to explain news media processes to readers. Tech companies, he said, need to explain themselves too."I'll fully admit that I haven't done enough of that," he said. "I haven't done enough of, like, articulating my own personal objectives with this service and my own personal objectives in the world."Dorsey spoke candidly about the "fear" people feel about Silicon Valley.When asked "Do you feel as powerful as they think you are?" Dorsey said no, "but I do understand the sentiment. I do understand how actions by us could generate more fear, and I think the only way we can disarm that is by being a lot more open, explaining in a straightforward way why we make decisions, how we make decisions."His bottom line: "We need to be reflective of the service that we're trying to build."Trump, of course, is one of Twitter's highest-profile users. His Saturday morning tweets about censorship lined up closely with Tucker Carlson's Friday night segment titled "Coordinated censorship by big tech." Carlson cited the recent actions against far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones."Increasingly the people in charge use technology to silence criticism, mostly of them," Carlson said.To hear Carlson and other conservative commentators tell it, Twitter and its peers are quashing dissent on a daily basis.Trump tweeted that "they are closing down the opinions of many people on the RIGHT, while at the same time doing nothing to others."Trump did not mention Jones or Twitter specifically. But Jones has been in the news lately because CNN and other outlets have been highlighting how his social media posts violated the rules of Twitter and other sites.On Wednesday, Twitter placed some of Jones' accounts on a one-week time-out.Many observers have been skeptical about whether a temporary suspension will actually be effective against Jones.When asked about that in Friday's interview, Dorsey said "I don't know" if Jones will change his offensive behavior."We have evidence that shows that temporary suspensions, temporary lockouts will change behavior. It will change peoples' approach. I'm not na?ve enough to believe that it's going to change it for everyone, but it's worth a shot," he said.More importantly, he added, Twitter has to be "consistent with our enforcement.""We can't just keep changing" the rules "randomly, based on our viewpoints, because that just adds to the fear of companies like ours -- making these judgments, according to our own personal views of who we like and who we don't like -- and taking that out upon those people. Those viewpoints change over time," he said. "And that just feels random and it doesn't feel fair and it doesn't earn anyone's trust because you can't actually see what's behind it." 4353
