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

Several days after Sacramento County declined to bring charges against two police officers who shot and killed Stephon Clark last year in his grandmother's backyard, California's top prosecutor announced a similar decision.Police said they fired at Clark because they believed he was pointing a gun at them, but only a cellphone was found at the scene.State Attorney General Xavier Becerra said Tuesday that his office conducted its own investigation and could not find evidence the officers acted illegally."There's a young man who's no longer alive, with two sons who won't have a father, whose mother I just met with, who's grieving. Of course it was a tough call They're all tough calls. It's never easy," he told reporters. "But we have to do the job before us."The fatal shooting and the decisions of authorities not to charge the officers have prompted protests in the California capital.Dozens of demonstrators bearing photos of Clark and holding Black Lives Matter signs were arrested Monday night. A total of 84 people were arrested and cited, police said.Sacramento Police Capt. Norm Leong, who live-tweeted the protest, said the arrests were for unlawful assembly. He also said that 1207

Several soon-to-be-married Valley couples say they're worried they've lost the thousands of dollars they invested on their wedding venue.NOAH's Event Center in Chandler, Arizona, sent an email to couples who booked the venue off Cooper and the Loop 202 saying they were canceling their highly anticipated events. “I had to re-read it again honestly. I was like, 'What? Is this real?'" said Melanie Stephenson, whose wedding was set for March of 2020. “I just mailed out my invites in November, so I had to re-message everyone like, 'Sorry wedding is postponed until I don’t even know when.'"Stephenson says she paid off the cost of the venue last December forking over ,000 to rent the entire building for the night and for NOAH to provide bartenders for her big day.“It just really sucks," she added. "This is like a hit in the face pretty much for all of us." Stephenson says NOAH's story doesn't add up. “I made sure to choose a company that I thought was solid because they have 30 other buildings throughout the United States," she said. Court records show NOAH 1082
