"The consultation process is a positive part of really allowing people to fully understand our deep concerns about this man, his regime and his desires to have weapons of mass destruction. Last question—and then I've got to go chip and putt for a birdie. [Laughter.] It was a good drive." —Bush, interrupting an Aug. 10 golf game in Waco, Texas, for a Q & A discussing possible U.S. military action against Iraq.

The Heart That Wouldn´t Die

Surgeons at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center gave doctors a glimpse of the future this weekend when they used the experimental Portable Organ Preservation System (POPS) to keep an 80-year-old man´s heart beating hours after he had died. This rather gruesome experiment has important practical value. Ordinarily, hearts that are to be transplanted are taken from the donor´s body and chilled until they can be used. But such a heart can only last about six hours. Using the POPS, warm blood is kept flowing through the organ, giving surgeons more time to get potential recipients to the hospital. [I know another organ I´d like to keep blood flowing through for a few extra hours.]

I'm not sure this is weird enough for "Bizarre News." It sounds like a medical breakthrough with the potential to save some lives. The line about "another organ" was funny though.

We are coming, it's personal now.

Donating your body to science can be very educational.... except for the dead person.
