YUBA CITY, Calif. (AP) — A California man whose suicide attempt left his face disfigured had successful facial transplant surgery 18 months later, and the lead surgeon estimates his face should be "pristine" in as little as three years.Cameron Underwood, 26, of Yuba City, had the 25-hour operation that involved more than 100 medical staff in January. Less than a year later, Underwood can speak intelligibly. He is golfing and has even gone skydiving, The Sacramento Bee reported Friday.Underwood appeared Thursday at a news conference at New York City's NYU Langone Health center, where he smiled and thanked medical staffers and his family for giving him a second chance at life."There have been so many amazing advances in surgery. I'm living proof of that. But it only happens because of special people like Will and his family," Underwood said referring to Will Fisher, his organ donor.Before Underwood's 2016 suicide attempt, he was employed as a welder and machine worker in Yuba City, as told by family members in a story this month in People magazine.Underwood had struggled with depression since adolescence and shot himself after a day of drinking, disintegrating the bottom of his face.With just 18 months between the initial injury and the surgery, Underwood's procedure represented the shortest wait time for a face transplant in the U.S., said the lead surgeon, Dr. Eduardo Rodriguez."We're able to take advantage of the most advanced technological procedures that exist, and we can do a lot of computerized planning before we do the operation," Rodriguez said at Thursday's news conference.Rodriguez estimated about three to five years until his face is "pristine."Underwood's body has shown no signs of rejecting the transplanted face so far, Rodriguez said."There was no way we could have ever taken him back to a normal life without a face transplant," the surgeon said.Underwood still lives in California but must continue to travel monthly to New York City to see the surgeon.Fewer than 50 face transplants have been performed worldwide, and fewer than 10 total or near-total operations have been performed in the United States.___Information from: The Sacramento Bee, http://www.sacbee.com 2221

based on the agency's religious or moral beliefs. It was the first bill to be heard at the beginning of the 2020 legislative session on Tuesday.It passed in the senate with 20 votes for the bill and six against.The bill would prohibit private licensed child-placing agencies from being required to perform, assist, consent to, refer or participate in child placement for foster care or adoption that would violate the agency's written religious or moral convictions. The private adoption agencies can't be denied an application for a license by the Department of Children's Services or any state or local grant, contract or government program on the basis of its objection due to moral convictions."This bill simply protects children to be placed in homes that agree with their stated religious and moral convictions," Sen. Paul Rose (R-Tipton) said.The bill also says private adoption agencies will be protected from civil action for damages or civil relief due to its refusal to participate in a placement that violates its moral convictions.Critics of the bill say it targets LGBT families and will be seen as unfavorable to businesses and events that want to come to Nashville."They've specifically said that in the recent past — the last six months — a number of conventions have inquired about this bill and about similar bills," Sen. Steve Dickerson (R-Davidson County) said. He voted "no" on the bill. "They have articulated they will not book future events in our state that will effect Knoxville, Memphis, Chattanooga and, of course, Nashville, predominantly," he said.The vote came after a lengthy discussion that included Senate Speaker and Lt. Governor Randy McNally R-Oak Ridge) leaving his chair to debate the issue on the House floor.CEO of the Nashville LGBT Chamber of Commerce Joe Woolley called the bill unnecessary and disappointing. He said it wouldn't stop same-sex couples from adopting children, and he had concerns about the possible economic impact."This is just blatant discrimination," Woolley said. "It makes Tennessee look like a place that isn't welcoming for people to come raise a family and work."Woolley added the chamber would continue to help connect same-sex couples with agencies that will allow them to adopt children.David Fowler, the President of the conservative Family Action Council of Tennessee, was at the Tennessee State Capitol for the vote. He said he was surprised the bill passed and believes it will have a limited impact."I don't think the bill did as much as some Christian organizations thought it did," Fowler said. "It also didn't do as much as some opposed to the bill thought it did."Fowler said the Religious Freedom Protection Act already allows adoption agencies to turn down same-sex couples due to religious beliefs.House Bill 0836 passed in Tennessee's House of Representatives last April. The Senate bill now heads to the desk of Republican Governor Bill Lee for his signature. 2948

You're never ready for the kind of news we are grappling with this morning. But we have no choice but to seek and find God's strength and comfort to deal... #HermanCain https://t.co/BtOgoLVqKz— Herman Cain (@THEHermanCain) July 30, 2020 244

It said:“Recent news articles reporting statements by Chris Wiest, the plaintiffs’ attorney, downplaying the dangers of the chickenpox virus are alarming and disappointing. Wiest’s comments are dismissive of the severity of this virus, and his recent announcement that he is advising his clients to actively contract the virus so that they can become individually immune to it is deeply concerning to the Northern Kentucky Health Department.“This is clearly not appropriate medical advice, according to physicians and infectious disease experts. Chickenpox, also known as varicella, is an acute infectious disease. When introduced in an unvaccinated population, the virus can rapidly spread, causing serious, even deadly consequences, to people who are particularly at risk, such as infants, adolescents, pregnant women, and adults and children with weakened immune systems, including those receiving cancer treatment."While the tactic Wiest suggests may provide an individual with future immunity from chickenpox, this infected person can easily spread the virus to other, unsuspecting people, including those particularly vulnerable to this potentially life-threatening infection."Encouraging the spread of an acute infectious disease in a community demonstrates a callous disregard for the health and safety of friends, family, neighbors, and unsuspecting members of the general public. A person who has contracted chickenpox can be infectious for up to 2 days before experiencing the rash that is associated with the virus. Control measures, such as restricted school attendance, participation in extracurricular activities, and instructing those who have symptoms to avoid contact with others, are designed to prevent unvaccinated people who have been exposed to the virus from infecting members of the general public while they are infectious."The Northern Kentucky Health Department has and will continue to follow the established medical guidance of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other nationally acclaimed experts in infectious disease control in responding to the chickenpox outbreak among Assumption Academy students. Our first concern is always protection of the public health and implementing reasonable, medically-approved control measures that are designed to safeguard our region’s population, including those who are most vulnerable to the threat of infectious disease." 2411

With the COVID-19 pandemic creating a demand for homes across the country, housing prices are on the rise.The median price for a single-family home increased to more than 3,000 between July and September, a figure that's increased 12% in the last year.According to Danielle Hale, the Chief Economist at Realtor.com, housing prices increase when there are a large number of buyers and not a lot of homes for sale."With the pandemic, we've actually seen these trends be exacerbated," Hale said. "We have even more buyers in the market, as people are looking for more space and possibly to get out of crowded apartments and into a single-family home where they've got a yard and some outdoor space and room to live and work and play all at home."Hale says prices are up because there aren't enough new homes under construction — a possible overcorrection from the housing market crash 12 years ago when there was more construction than was needed, and the loan market went without the regulation in place today.Hale says that home prices are now rising in a way that could eventually impact affordability."Home prices are rising, but this pace of increase may not be sustainable, especially if mortgage rates steady or start to rise," she said. "The important thing to think about is that regardless of the macro-economic context, you want to look at your personal financial situation."Experts say the best way to become immune to a housing bubble is for buyers to make sure their financial situation can handle monthly mortgage payments long-term, even in the event of job loss. 1587
