The Zagat travel guide Wednesday named The Ritz-Carlton, Dallas the No. 1 large hotel in the U.S. and its Fearing’s restaurant No. 1 in hotel dining.
In its 2009 Top U.S. Hotels, Resorts & Spas survey, Zagat rated the hotel, in Dallas’ Uptown, extraordinary to perfect in each category. Travelers described the food served by celebrity chef Dean Fearing as “last-meal worthy†and “haute Texan†cuisine.
MIAMI, Nov 19 (Reuters) – An American teen-ager survived for nearly four months without a heart, kept alive by a custom-built artificial blood-pumping device, until she was able to have a heart transplant, doctors in Miami said on Wednesday.
The doctors said they knew of another case in which an adult had been kept alive in Germany for nine months without a heart but said they believed this was the first time a child had survived in this manner for so long.
The patient, D’Zhana Simmons of South Carolina, said the experience of living for so long with a machine pumping her blood was “scary.”
“You never knew when it would malfunction,” she said, her voice barely above a whisper, at a news conference at the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Medical Center.
I guess this helps her street cred and hurts his.
That today was World Toilet Day.
