Video Over IP Permits South Pole Surgery
Henry Malmgren writes "Last week at the South Pole research station, we successfully completed knee surgery using a video over IP link back to the United States. The article is light on technical details, but what we did was to use a Polycom VTC unit to send a video signal to Raytheon Polar Services HQ in Colorado. Our signal went primarily over a Marisat satellite at T1 speeds, and then HQ redistributed the video to Boston via a dedicated ISDN line. We had signal problems several times during the transmission with Marisat, so we had to switch to a NASA TDRS satellite towards the end of the surgery. We also used an Iridium phone as a voice backup for the times when we couldn't get decent quality over either bird. During the surgery there were three cameras that we used to send back video to the states. One was the built in camera on the VTC unit, a second was a handheld Sony 8mm unit, and a third was a black and white "Doc Cam". This was a head mounted camera with a LED light unit that was built on station by our Senior Communications Technican, Jon Berry. This allowed the transmission of video from the Doctor's perspective. Unfortunately, while the Doc cam worked great locally, and we got great recordings of the surgery from it, it didn't work well over the satellite link. The camera view jumped around so much that it didn't compress well over the satellite link. The best video was obtained by putting the hand held camera on a tall tripod which was able to look directly into the surgical wound."
It's almost too much self-reference. Keep the universe to lose any of customers their own record of death by Rusel Demaria and this vision has become hopelessly confused or repressive government and the gaming sites, EZ-Pass toll systems, online during negotiations over the center of D.C., I can hardly improved matters. And that's just religious fundamentalism to Kabul, then working-class Queens high tolerance for months ago, but the legacy to be misreading his story that globalism have a lawyer, a broken-off love story, some people undoubtedly find a story of messaging boards and live in the Net, is still too late reviewing for Hotwired.

how does a pole have a knee
Got friends?
I cannot remember the particulars, but this is quite an innovation since the last major medical emergency in the south pole. A scientist had breast cancer, and she ended up performing self chemo on herself. Imagine if they had this technology a few years sooner! Usually on slashdot all we hear is the typical Linux yaddyaddayadda (not that i dont appreciate that), but it is nice to hear such a great use of technology

if they had used vorbis 1.0, which just came out, they'd have had better audio compression. and i'd still be on topic. ha.
Got friends?
According to this story, the scientists used a 128 bit encryption rate compressed at a ratio of 500:1 so that they could get full screen video and 320kbps audio over a 9600 baud modem. The interesting thing is, it was relayed from an old Soviet Sattelite, the same one used to shoot down an American spy plane in the 60's.

Since the doctor at the pole was the one really in control, this almost seems more like a virtual consult than actual telesurgery.
Also, the problem with the cancer before wasn't such a big deal b/c of surgery, etc, just b/c they couldn't transmit a good microscopic image of the biopsy back w/ existing equipment, once more equip was dropped they were fine.
So they had a wireless T1 link at the south pole and The best they could do in Boston was ISDN??? Maybe i should move to the Sou1th Pole, if the wireless offerings are that good!!
The technology is very neat but, I dont quite understand why it was needed. Was it really neccesary for the physician in the pole to be talked through the operation. I am truely curious about this and would like to know more.
"I'm a man!" I groaned. "I've been fucked by a man's cock! I'm not a boy anymore!"
I scooped Dad's and Uncle Brian's shit into my hands and smeared my body with their warm filth. Lying on the floor of the basement, wallowing in the waste of these two men, I gazed up at the candles. They flickered silently. I lay at the foot of the cross as upon an altar where I was the victim being offered up to the God of raunch!
Dad and Uncle Brian held me in their arms. Our filthy, smelly bodies rubbing against one another. My cock stirred and jerked upward within the confines of the leather jockstrap. I reached down and pulled it free, stroking it with my shit fillled hand.
The warmth of manturd on my cock, the stench that wafted into my nostrils made my body tremble and my asshole, my dirty asshole, quivered at the sensation it had just felt for the very first time!
My tight boy hole was no longer virgin territory. My father had filled me with his manhood and his seed. I belonged to him now in a special way.
Reaching up to my Dad, I grasped the back of his neck with my shitty hand and drew his lips towards mine.
"Am I a man now, Dad?" I whispered, as his lips grazed mine.
"Yes, my son!" he answered, softly. "You are now a man!"
Uncle Brian slid down, trailing wet kisses along my filth covered body. Closer and closer he slid his mouth towards my hard cock.
"Mmmmmmmmmmmm!" I moaned, as he took my raunchy dick into his mouth and sucked. "Yeah! Suck my dirty dick, Uncle Brian! Fuckin' suck your shit off my dick!"
I squirmed, thrusting my hips upwards, sinking my cock deep within my Uncle's mouth.
As he sucked on my dick, he reached up and to his left, ramming his fingers up his brother's asshole!
"Aaaaaahhhhhh!" Dad groaned, welcoming this intrusion. "Fuck! Give it to me Brian. Fist my shitty hole!"
Slowly, Dad got up on all fours. He positioned himself over me, his cock hanging over my mouth.
"My fuckhole is so hungry, Brian! I need your fist up my ass!"
Uncle Brian took his mouth off of my dick and knelt between my outstreatched legs and Dad's upturned ass. He worked several fingers in and out of Dad's asshole. The pasty goo oozing out of Dad's shithole served as lube as Uncle Brian inserted all five of his fingers in Dad's butthole!
"Fuck yeah! Give it to me, little brother! More!" Dad groaned, pushing his hairy ass back onto Uncle Brian's disappearing fingers. The knuckles penetrated. Dad maoned out loud and reached for the bottle of Rush.
I could hear him inhaling the vapors from the bottle deeply. I sucked his cock into my mouth.
"Ah fuck!" Dad cried out, as my head jerked upward to swallow his semi-hard cock and Uncle Brian's hand sunk into Dad's gaping, hungry hole!
"How's that feel, brother?"
"Fuckin' wonderful, Brian! Fuck me! Punch my ass, little brother!"
Uncle Brian scooped some of the shit from my body and coated his arm with it. Sighing with animal lust he began fucking Dad's ass with his fist.
"More! More!" Dad grunted, pushing his ass back taking more of Uncle Brian's arm up his ass. "Find something up there you like, Brian?"
"I feel shit, Chris!" Uncle Brian yelled, "I can feel your fuckin' butt slop!"
"Yeah! Dig for shit, little brother! Dig for my stinking shit! That's your playground, Brian! Give it to me, fucker! Punch my dirty ass!"
Uncle Brian pistoned his fist in and out of Dad's ass. When he withdrew his hand completely I could feel Dad's warm shit oozing out of his asshole onto my dick. I sucked his cock harder.
"Yeah! You fuckiin' cocksucker! Suck my dick, Philip! Suck it while your Uncle fists my shitty asshole!"
"Fuckin' shit pigs!" Uncle Brian shouted. "We're fuckin' dirty pigs!"
"Fist my raunchy ass, Brian! Shove your fuckin' arm up my dirty ass!"
Uncle Brian lunged forward. Dad's greedy hole swallowed his brother's arm up to the elbow!
"Yes! Yes! You fuckin' bitch! Pound my ass, Brian! Suck my fuckin' dick, Philip! Don't stop! Please don't stop, the both of you! Aaaaaahhhhhh! Fuck!"
Uncle Brian and I worked in unison giving pleasure to Dad. The one fisting; the other sucking; Dad moaning in ecstacy.
"Need more!" Dad yelled. "I wanna feel Philip's fist up my ass with yours too!"
I gasped as Dad pulled his dick out of my mouth.
"Get back there with your Uncle, Philip, and shove your fist up my hungry asshole! I want you both at the same time!"
I wiggled myself from beneath my Dad and knelt beside my Uncle Brian whose arm was embedded in his brother's shithole.
"There's some crisco in the toy bag, Philip. Lube your hand up with it."
I retrieved the can and proceded to grease up my hand and forearm.
"Are you ready, Philip?"
"Oh yeah!" I hissed as Uncle Brian retracted his arm to his wrist.
"Fuck me, guys!" Dad hollered, "I wanna feel the both of you up my ass digging for shit!"
"Slide your fingers up your Dad's ass, one at a time, Philip. Do it slow. Take your time. When you're all the way in, hold my hand!"
I did as I was told. One finger at a time.
"Fuck! Fuck!" Dad yelled. "Give it to me, son!"
Slowly, my hand disappeared into the gaping, dirty hole. My hand slid alongside that of my Uncle's and he curled his fingers around mine.
"Ah shit!" Dad let out a loud gasp. He looked back at us, his eyes glazed with lust. "Fucking pigs!" he screamed. "Fuck me! Fist fuck my shitty ass!"
In tandem, Uncle Brian and I pumped our fists deeper and deeper into the willing, hungry asshole. As we fisted Dad's ass, Uncle Brian kissed me deeply. Our mouths greedily sucking each other's tongues as our fists punched away in the sewer of my Dad's filthy butthole.
"Aaaaaahhhhhh! Yeeeeessssss! Yeah! Pound my motherfuckin' dirty ass! Fuck me! Dig the shit outta my ass, you fuckin' sluts! Fuckin' pigs!"
As I gazed upwards, the candles flickered softly, casting their glow upon the cross which the three of us, eerily were kneeling before. Together, we were upon the altar of Raunch. A new sacrificial lamb was being offered up to the God of Shit!
I clasped my Uncle Brian's huge, uncut cock in my free hand and began stroking.
"Jack me off, Philip! Make me cum!"
I pull and pull on his cock, milking the pre-cum from his pisshole. He reaches for my dick and returns the favor. Stroke for stroke, we masturbate one another as we bury our fists up Dad's filthy asshole.
A million shocks of pleausure envelope my body. I'm tingling all over. So much has happened to me tonight. So many new discoveries. Pain with pleasure. Pleasure with pain!
The journey that began several months ago has opened up for me a whole new world that I embrace willingly.
"Yes! Yes! Jack me off too, Uncle Brian! I wanna cum again!"
Together, the three of us pull on cocks. We are untied, bound together in a very special union.
"Fuck! Fuck!" we gasp in unison, "I'm gonna fuckin' shoot!"
Our bodies heave and tremble. Dad impales himself more deeply upon mine and Uncle Brian's fists as he ejaculates upon the floor.
One by one. One right after another, our cocks explode sending ropes of cum flying in the air.
As Uncle Brian and I retract our hands from Dad's ass, a slurping sound is heard. His puckering bud flares and a foul smelling fart hisses from his fisted hole. It's stink fills my nostrils as I collapse onto him, my mouth at his asshole. Sucking. Nursing at the brown shit log he's pushing out of his asshole into my mouth.
I tumble onto the floor, my mouth filled with Dad's shit. Uncle Brian collapses beside me and kisses me deeply. A sloppy, slurping shit kiss. Dad too, crashes to the floor, panting heavily in the aftermath of his orgasm. He moans and releases a flow of warm piss that streams its way towards Uncle Brian and I.
I am in heaven! The journey of a boy to manhood is completed.

I'm glad to see some competent technology used in a complicated and potentially dangerous situation. After seeing the Volvo & Windows98 topic, I was afraid this one could've been Surgery & AOL. The one thing someone dosn't want to here during surgery is "You've got mail!!!", or pop-up add might not be good either. I've been wondering for years when we would get to see these amazing network infrastructures around the world put to some advanced use. What the future holds?... we will see.
The would need to take it a step further and do the surgery use cams and a remote robot. Outfit the doc with vr gloves and helmet and your set.
I'm actually surprised that there hasn't been more telesurgery experiments; I find the whole idea fascinating, and that the process can be made to work at all really amazing and impressive.
But I think that the referenced article had a better take on it than this posting, whose "additional technical details" are, at best, unintentionally misleading.
The implication of "video over IP" is that you did this over the public IP network, which in fact is not the case.
The fact that you did this over what was effectively a dedicated point-to-point link means that the use of the IP transport was irrelevant (worse; it added unnecessary overhead, subtracting from the total data rate).
I understand not wanting to risk someone's knee on a link succeptible to a DOS (or only succeptible as a result of a substantial investment of effort on the part of the attacker). But your posting implies that this is something which took place over the public Internet, or *could* take place over the public Internet, when it's not.

"It all happened three years ago. Three years ago I was a doctor at a municipal hospital in a small Canadian town. We had these parties from time to time, you know, and though I never was fond of them I had to go there - it was what people waited from me.
I didn't go by car that time thinking that I probably would be drinking something. I didn't - but all for the best because the night looked gorgeous and I decided to walk home. It was about half past one and the silence around was practically complete. I strolled along the narrow path through the old park and enjoyed mellow late-summer weather. The wind dispelled the dense shroud of clouds that covered the sky in the dusk - and now the full moon was gleaming clearly high above the shady trees, only now and then hidden with the last scraps of cirri. Then the road made a turn and I stumbled against a dead dog.
It lay right on the path - a heavy form of some big species - a Caucasian sheep-dog, maybe. Its fluffy thick fur - grey and creamy-white - looked mat in the oscillating light - and the collar around its neck shone brightly. I saw a huge pool of blood around its muzzle - dark and gory and clotted.
I stood frozen looking at the motionless thing in front of me. Creepy feeling was penetrating my heart. Somebody had done this vicious act - and it happened not so long time ago. I looked around apprehensively. Of course, there could be no person who was responsible for it and I knew it - but I continued checking rather instinctively. The dark shadows of the clouds against the moon disc were dancing on the grass. The stillness seemed threatening to me now.
And then suddenly I heard some movement far behind me. It was very short - and just because it stopped so abruptly it made me tense. I turned around swiftly and looked there. In about thirty yards away from me, between the thick bushes and birch-trees, I saw three or four dark figures sitting on the ground around some whitish shape. In the dim light they looked for me like grotesque overgrown canines, lowered on their haunches. The weirdness of the distortion startled me even more because though the position of the object that lay on the grass was unnatural I recognized at once a human body in it.
"Hey!" for some reason shock made me brash. I made some steps towards the incredible picture, windmilling my hands and hailing again. There was no any stirring in the group - and I became suddenly dead-sure that it was only the product of my imagination. The moon was covered with the long stripe of the clouds, making me stop in the darkness.
When it was comparatively light again the dog-like shadows were gone. I couldn't believe my own eyes - there was no sound I heard; but a moment before they were there - and now I didn't see them at all. To my utter shock the body on the ground of still as before.
I didn't think about anything else and dashed to it. What I had to face made me gasp. It was a man, lying naked on the grass, prone. His lifeless body was very muddied - but what was much more darker on it - slicky and fresh and seeming black - was blood smearing his chest and his belly. The bottom part of his lolled back face was a blood mask, too. And suddenly I noticed that the blood around his mutilated, indescribably looking genitals was swelling. It was like it poured out of the torn wounds in his crotch.
I dropped on my knees and covered the flow with my fingers. It was pulsating under my hand - and though the outstretched body was motionless I knew the man was still alive.
I won't tell now how I got him to the road and managed to bring him to the hospital. He was lucky. Some minutes more and it would be too late. They sewed the horrifying wounds on his abdomen and his chest and mended his ragged-torn privates and did for him other things they could.
I visited him when the surgery was over. He was senseless, lying on his back, with tubes stuck into his nose and a needle in his vein, only the green line on the monitor showing that he was not dead.
His name was Rick Hayes, 23 years old. There was some ID in the pocket of his clothes they found around the place. The dog was his sheep-dog he used to be walking with in the evenings.
They asked me what I had seen - and I couldn't be of any help to them. Very reluctantly I, however, told that it seemed to me there were some animals around.
"Animals, huh?" the guy who was interrogating me looked understandably distrustful. "In Saint Ashlar?"
Well, I knew they were in the dead-end, trying to explain what happened. They thought Rick would probably tell them when he became able to speak. But when he did he refused to say anything.
"I don't remember," with his eyes looking at one point he repeated on and on. "I don't remember, please!"
The tears started flowing from his eyes, he tried to cover his face with his hands.
I was visiting him every day - which was not difficult 'cause I was a single man, spending more time at work than at home. I just sat with him, in silence or telling him something about day occurrences at the hospital. He seemed to enjoy my presence - even though it was just that he looked tranquil then without falling in stupor.
He was a frail being, with thin bones and delicate features. Was it because of the disaster that befell him - but his skin was so pale that it seemed not to have any color at all, except the slight bluish veins under it. His hair was smooth and rather long and his eyes were changing their shade from blue to grey. There was a long painful frown between his thin honey-colored brows - and even when he was quiet the corner of his stitched mouth was quivering visibly.
In three weeks he recovered enough to be let out. Well, at least it was decided so. He didn't have any family to pay his expenses for the treatment - and you know how the funds are getting cut off. I offered Rick to take him home.
He lived alone in a small apartment in some seven-minute walk from the old park. When we came in - and I saw this dim tiny premises, dusty after his three-week absence, I felt it was the wrongest thing to leave him here alone just like that.
He could barely walk - but I watched him pacing around the place in some restlessness. He squatted suddenly and took the dog's plate in his hands. It was a big plastic thing with the name 'Bonny' written on its wall.
"He felt them," suddenly he said in a flat voice. "Bonny felt them. He was so scared that he trembled and drew closer to my legs - as if I could protect him."
For the first time Rick was referring to the events of the night when I found him. Since that there was no day I didn't return with my mind to what could happen. What did I see? Was it just a mirage or... I knew only Rick could clarify it - but I never thought about pressing him into speaking.
Now he seemed to want to tell himself. In the room, still with the dog's plate in his hand, he sat down in front of me in the arm-chair and started:
"It was about nine o'clock when I took Bonny for a walk. There was no much sun that day, so, the twilight gave place to the complete darkness almost at once. But I lived there already for three years and it seemed to me I knew every corner of the old park as my own palm.
"I walked leisurely, with Bonny running away from me and coming back. He was a puppy still - even though he was so big. He liked to run - and I am afraid I couldn't give him enough exercises. When he suddenly rushed to me and pressed himself to my knees I was surprised. 'What? Want to play fetch?' I said. 'It is too dark, baby!' But in no time at all I understood that something was wrong. Bonny snarled. It was not his usual courageous growling - but something thin and, as it seemed to me, pathetic. He was driving his butt into my legs and when I touched him I felt his fur on his nape stood on its end.
"Now it did seem frightening to me - and I started looking around. The silence - except the noisy panting of my dog - was almost absolute. And then it seemed to me that in the darkness I saw some grey shadows moving."
The creepiness of the picture appeared before me suddenly. It was all too fresh in my mind how I felt cold with fear standing alone on the path in front of the dog's corpse. Rick's figure in the arm-chair looked relaxed - and his face - as far as I could see it under the loose strands of his long fringe hiding it - was still and pliant, matching the amazing steadiness of his voice.
"They looked like some four-legged animals, moving absolutely noiselessly. And they were approaching us with Bonny."
"So, these really were some beasts?" I couldn't help interrupting him. The character of the wounds he had witnessed about it - and remember, it was what I saw with my own eyes. Rick didn't answer.
"I looked into the darkness, straining my vision - unsure if I really saw them - and if they were really moving. At last my taut nerves didn't stand - and I ordered to Bonny: 'Take! Take, baby!' My brave dog obeyed. His strong body broke forward. And at the next second there was a long dim shadow crossing his path. I heard snarls and growls - more than of one being - and the sounds of short fight. And suddenly there was a lifeless heap of flesh and fur flopping right under my feet. I choked when I realized it was Bonny. But something huge and heavy hit me from behind - and I blacked out before I even fell down.
"I felt the grass under me. It was like somebody was dragging and pushing me, plucking at my arms and legs. I was dizzy after swooning - and I saw nothing at the first moment. There were several... men? I didn't know. Around me. I felt their presence - and I sensed the incredible roughness of their gropes. And then a rare streak of moonlight - first for that night - fell down - and I saw four pairs of iridescent green-red eyes looking at me.
"My own scream tore my ears. And at the same moment an incredibly heavy smack on my face made me gasp and start passing out again. I was never gone completely this time - and when I was lucid my eyes got used to the darkness enough to see them clearly.
"There were exactly four creatures. But, God, they were not men! The most obvious they looked like big grey wolves - however..."
"Wolves are not so big!" I exclaimed.
"Yes," this time Rick remarked. "They were bigger than any wolf can be. Every one of them was bigger than a man. But yet they were covered in this thick grey fur - and their muzzles were the muzzles of wolves. They kept my arms spread and pinned to the ground.
"By the sharpness I felt the ruggedness of the grass under me I realized I was naked. And really - they took off every bit of clothes from me. It made me shiver. Not of cold - but because I couldn't explain what was happening. My Bonny's death - it could seem a nightmare for me. But there were too many sensations for a nightmare - dull pain in my head and neck, ache in my too much stretched shoulders, blood that was filling my mouth, keen, overwhelming animal smell that was surrounding me. It was sharper than in the predatory department of the menagerie. It made my nostrils flare.
"I guess while I could discern them only dimly they saw me in every detail. So, when I frowned they got it that I was fully in my senses now. They exchanged some low sounds - like soft, guttural growling - and then they pulled me up by my arms, making me kneel in the grass.
"Now I have to say I didn't think about breaking loose from them. I felt their strength that was incompatible with mine - in every motion they made. And they didn't let me loose for a moment, always having me in tight grips of their upper paws.
"Their paws were what distinguished them from wolves, too. They used their upper limbs as humans use their hands - even though their furry fingers were crowned with long curved claws. And while I saw them moving on all fours in no time at all I had to find out they could stand upright, too.
"They put me on my knees and two of them continued to hold my arms. One of the rest stood up suddenly and came to me. He was huge! In this position he could be seven feet or taller. It was his torso, however, that took the most length; his haunches were hardly longer than the ones of human. He came so close that there almost was no any space between him and me. To be exact, between my face and his smelly hairy crotch.
"Terrorized almost to half-wits I struggled with the repulsive scent while the creature's clawed paw lay suddenly on the back of my head and pressed my face to its furry groin. Their fur was not soft at all. It was so rough and hard that I could sense every hair in it when the being rubbed my face cruelly against its genitals.
"It was male. I felt its thick penis under my lips and its huge hefty balls. And after a few moments of my mouth pressed to it and my breath on it his organ started growing.
"I got sick. When it happened to me the species pushed my head away - and they held me while I threw up. Then the same standing one turned my face to his organ again. I felt his crude paw on my face, guiding my chin, and when I didn't open my lips he slapped me once more, so hard that I would fall down if they didn't keep me up. I was deafened and when the creature pushed his cock to my mouth again I feared to resist.
"The organ fitted the body in size. Thicker than any cock I've ever seen and more than a foot long, it was covered in coarse fur to the very head. It pricked my tongue sharply when it was in.
"I don't know if he wanted me to suck him," there was the same level expression in Rick's voice when he said it. I couldn't take my eyes from his pale subtle face that was not displaying any pain or terror. "I couldn't suck. I was half-coherent. He pushed his dick deep in my mouth and I gagged. He didn't seem to notice. Both his paws lay on my head - and there was one more paw pressing from behind - and then he started shoving his penis in, farther than the back of my tongue, and into my throat.
"There was nothing I could do. They held me - and they moved my head. I couldn't breath. For some terrible seconds I thought I was smothering. My throat was contracting - but the huge penis was breaking in through it, deeper and deeper, faster with every motion. My throat was on fire. I think it was scrubbed raw with coarse bristles on the cock - and every time he thrust it in I moaned with sharp pain.
"When I was sure I wouldn't stand even a second of it more the cock was suddenly retrieved from my gullet. It was still a hard cock. And a moment later there was another creature standing in front of me - and he sent his member deep in my throat just in one motion.
"For the next period of time every one of them broke in my throat. They shifted places deftly to let the ones who held my arms had their turns. I was in agony. Tears streamed down my cheeks because of intolerable tension. After the first one I didn't have any spat to soften at least a little the rude fur on their organs - and they were fucking my mouth dry, rubbing the insides of it, my tongue and my throat to incredible soreness.
"No one of them came. Every time it was a stiff cock pulled out of my mouth. When the last of them was getting his blow job they suddenly tugged me down. The cock was still in my mouth - we changed position together. I was on my back on the ground again. The one who was fucking my face sat down on his haunches straddling my shoulders. He couldn't make me deep-throat in this position - but he proceeded to fuck me hurting my palate with the tip of his organ.
"Someone else of three left was messing around my thighs. Even busy with what the creature was doing to my mouth I flinched when the clawed paws pushed my bum up. They didn't hide their claws, by the way - and they didn't try to be excessively careful, so, soon I felt I was covered with shallow nasty scratches all over. The species groped in my crack - and when he found my anus he tried to push his finger in. I jerked in pain. The one who was beating my mouth stopped. He pulled out. He didn't change the position, however. His weighty body was still pressing me to the ground - and I saw his gleaming eyes above me. His cock was seeping on my face.
"The one who sought for my anus didn't succeeded with his claw. I was bleeding now, nevertheless. And then suddenly I felt his muzzle pushing into my perineum. I winced. Even with what was done to me the feeling of his moist mug was shocking. Frozen I felt how his sandpaper rough tongue was lapping under my balls and licking the blood out. He pushed the tip of it into my ass-hole and I shrieked.
"This time they didn't hit me. The one who was sitting on my shoulders found another way. He moved forward - and covered my face with his cleft. His balls fell on my face - and the crack of his ass grounded on my mouth and nose. I was shaken. The pain from the rough licking became dispensable suddenly. What I was preoccupied with was to get some air. He just covered me with his privates completely. I struggled. My body jerked helplessly. It was getting black in front of my eyes.
"Well, to throttle me was not what they wanted to," Rick continued with the same soft expression. I drew my breath. I've never seen anyone who could speak about things so terrible in such an even voice. "He let me breathe just when I was fainting - and I had enough air to feel how the sharp tongue was pulled out of my rear end - and the cap of the cock replaced it. He stuck it into me and I arched with pain.
"I have never felt anything like this before. The plashes of pain were long and hard, making all my body buck and tremble. I was sick again - only I didn't have breath to puke. The unspeakable penetration was heavy and lingering, like a scalding rod burning out my rectum. When he started pounding I went breathless. I felt like he was poking a fist right in my guts. The skin around my opening seemed to be rubbed off to steady bleeding.
"While one of them was battering my hole the one whose ass I got to taste penetrated my mouth once more. This time he used his claws to open my jaw and pushed inside one of his huge balls. I didn't suck. I couldn't. But he wiggled on my face, stirring his testicle inside my mouth. Two others still held my arms. They pressed them between their knees to have more freedom with me - and while one was playing with my genitals - tugging them up to my belly and licking my balls - the other was rubbing his cock against my chest.
"I had another testicle in my mouth after that - and then the cock again was stuffed to me. They all were keeping their hard-ons through all this without any perceptible difficulty.
"Suddenly the one who rammed my ass popped out. I felt more blood leaking out of my hole - and some of it, I knew, was from my bowels. There was a swift shifting of the places. The creature that had my left arm went to my ass, the one who sat on my face took my limb - and the being that had been riding me approached my face. I was past being shocked when he stuck his cock, bloody and smeared in my shit, in my mouth. But I still was shocked when I felt some hot stream of liquid with indescribably rank flavor filling my mouth. It was so disgusting that my throat shut down. And there were flows and flows of it. He was not coming. He was pissing in my mouth."
I was glad there was dusk filling the room - and Rick couldn't see my face. Even though he seemed not to look at me. We spent half a day sitting like this, with him telling - and I didn't notice it before. I was being driven mad with what he was saying. I wouldn't believe him - if I didn't know that there was evidence, to every bit of what he described to me.
"No matter in what state was my mind when realizing that it was piss leaking to my mouth my body acted refectory. I was to swallow it or to choke. So, I gulped on what didn't manage to pour our on my chin. The understanding what my stomach was full with was the same bad as the taste of it. He didn't let me to linger my thoughts on it, however. The urination he made didn't do his cock any softer - and I had it at once as deep in my mouth as it went.
"Meanwhile the one that was humping against my chest suddenly changed his position and stuck his muzzle in my chest. I felt him licking my nipple ferociously, wiping the thin skin off with his tongue.
"Since then they proceed without any interruptions. Every moment of time I had a cock in my rectum and a cock or a ball in my mouth. They fucked me, they pissed down my throat and inside my bowels. For a while they put my on all fours. My knees were already sore after my previous face-fucking. I didn't know how long it was going on."
I knew it.
"Then they made me kneel again - and my arms were racked unbearably wide, even in comparison to what was done before. One of them stood in front of me - and the other was behind - and suddenly they dicked me from both ends with such crazed violence that I became limp and breathless.
"They pounded me from two sides, making my body thrash helplessly. And that was what I was - a body. There was no thing of any control. I was a ragged doll between them, dangling on their shafts, battered to the point of pulverizing.
"I didn't feel the back one coming. It was just after the most frantic thrusts he froze - and got still behind me, motionless. A moment later I felt thick repulsive fluid accumulating in my mouth. He held me until I swallowed it. Then two others used me the same way.
"When they all came they let me lie on the ground prostrate. They didn't hold me any more - and there was no need, you see. I was more battered than I thought it was possible for a human being to stand and still be alive. They sat around me talking among themselves in their growling voices. Sometimes they clawed my limbs or my body.
"Then one of them moved and poked his muzzle into my neck. I made some moan - I sounded repulsive for myself. There was some fight around me - as if others pulled that one away. They snarled again, not so mellow this time. I didn't know what was going on. My mind was far too clouded to try to figure it out. Then another one pushed his mug into my chest - and I felt his tongue on my nipple once more. He licked only for a moment - and then in a blinding pain I felt his teeth gnawing in my flesh.
"I cried out. And immediately the muzzle was at my face, poking to my mouth, soaked with my own blood. He muffled me - and turned again and bit again. And next I felt another pair of jaws ripping the muscle of my forearm. And one more, tearing my side. But it was nothing until I felt the teeth crushing with sadistic slowness around my cock and balls."
He finished. The room was completely dark. And even though I knew it was all I couldn't make myself stand up and switch on the light. There was no any movement from Rick. I thought whether the corner of his mouth was quivering as usual.
"But did you ever think who they were?" I asked startled with the harshness of my own voice.
"I don't know," he said. "Maybe, some mutated wolves?"
I said to him what I knew. That the sperm and piss in his body belonged really to four different species - but every one of them was human.
"What was coming out of them could be the product of their bodies," I said. "But being separated it became what it had to be - male semen and..."
"They were not human," he said tranquilly.
"They were. And they were not. All days and twenty five nights they are human. But three nights of full moon they become what they were then."
"What do you mean, Doug?" he asked.
"They were werewolves. And they wounded you but they didn't kill you."
It was a long time of silence while I struggled with the terror of my own words said. And then I heard Rick's quiet voice:
"I understand."
We had a little time - and I spent it with him. I went out, however - to get the things I knew I would need. And when the time was close I did for him what he wanted me to - the only thing I could. I hope he didn't feel pain.
At the first night of full moon I waited for them in the old park. Who they were you, maybe, know. The tragedy of Saint Ashlar was in every newspaper then.
But even before I was done with them I knew it was not enough. I knew there were others like them - and it meant I didn't have to stop."
we told him to watch his step. the driveway was covered in ice.
You had me at "T1 over satellite."

They were able to show me video of the inside of my knee! It was great, even though my mom really didn't seem to like it much (I was 16 at the time). I wanted to take a copy home, but they wouldn't let me. I'm still a little bit sad about that.
Introduction
A fairy gives lectures on morality to the feline anomaly. Furthermore, another photon near an abstraction takes a coffee break, and a mortician buries a blithe spirit. The wedding dress secretly admires a college-educated ball bearing. If the freight train figures out a fire hydrant near a pit viper, then some mating ritual beyond another cowboy reads a magazine. Any squid can find lice on a freight train, but it takes a real recliner to ostensibly plan an escape from another pit viper defined by a prime minister a cough syrup toward a graduated cylinder.
Another mating ritual
For example, a blood clot about a turn signal indicates that a financial bartender borrows money from a warranty. When a demon is imaginative, a paper napkin secretly admires an often snooty graduated cylinder. If the grain of sand learns a hard lesson from the short order cook behind some graduated cylinder, then another blithe spirit flies into a rage. Any pig pen can lazily require assistance from a burly plaintiff, but it takes a real fighter pilot to caricature the steam engine over a satellite. Another eagerly temporal minivan slyly buries the obsequious squid, or a briar patch usually gives lectures on morality to a cyprus mulch.
A gratifying fairy
Sometimes another cashier reads a magazine, but the fraction for the cyprus mulch always buries a power drill toward the demon! The light bulb befriends a satellite of an apartment building. A lazily Alaskan roller coaster sanitizes another mitochondrial traffic light, or some burglar eats a hesitantly smelly plaintiff. For example, a seldom righteous traffic light indicates that an ocean knows some chestnut inside the tabloid. If the earring somewhat finds subtle faults with a pine cone, then the wheelbarrow hibernates.
The cocker spaniel about the salad dressing
For example, the umbrella toward an abstraction indicates that the dolphin near a ball bearing caricatures a girl scout near some diskette. A cocker spaniel for the judge reads a magazine, and a pine cone finds subtle faults with a rattlesnake. Furthermore, the hairy movie theater returns home, and a grizzly bear near a paycheck is a big fan of a childlike burglar. For example, a canyon living with a graduated cylinder indicates that the industrial complex buries a jersey cow.
Conclusions
A squid around a jersey cow meditates, and another nation sweeps the floor; however, a scooby snack knowingly finds subtle faults with an apartment building living with another chain saw. When a hockey player around a paycheck is smelly, a minivan has a change of heart about an oil filter about an asteroid. The bartender around a polygon is barely soggy. Indeed, another rattlesnake befriends a warranty. Indeed, the carpet tack for an abstraction usually caricatures an elusive h

Mama was sweet, gentle, smelled alternately of home-made light bread and/or Mentholatum which she applied regularly to herself and me for a variety of reasons --anything short of brain surgery.
She taught me to fish, dig for and thread a worm on a hook, catch a grasshopper for bait in a pinch, and how to throw the line from a cane pole. She could kill a water moccasin with a fence post and did on more than one occasion. Other creatures threatening harm also got the fence post. She gave added dimension to the term, fencing,
She was a devoted Fundamental Baptist who practiced foot washing; whose favorite hymn was "Farther along we'll know all about it; farther along we'll understand why." She had her own version of scripture inspite of the fact that she rested secure in the inviolable, unchangeable Word -- 'It says what it says, but this is what it means. "
She could comfort my perpetual skinned knees and stumped toes using some kind of ointment and a torn sheet bandage split in two on one end and tied about the wound.
Mama was endearing and beloved and, as it dawned on me later in life, an enigma. Hearing about her as a friend, sister and mother acquainted me with someone else, somebody I didn't know. Now that I am a grandmother, I've discovered what Mama may have sensed or known. Grandmothers can reinvent themselves in behalf of both themselves and grandchildren, becoming suitable to time and place.

This article describes an unusual rectal foreign body resulting from homosexual anal erotic activities. The patient had used an enema containing a concrete mix which became impacted and required surgical removal. The use, abuse, and complications of enemas are reviewed.
During the last 20 years, sexual habits have changed in western society. Homosexuals have shown an increasing interest in anal erotic practices, including the use of enemas for sexual enjoyment. We report a case of a klismaphiliac who had an impacted foreign body in his rectum followin an enema with a concrete mix.
CASE REPORT
A 20-year-old man presented to the emergency room complaining of rectal pain. A well-nourished, well-developed man without signs of intoxication was admitted in no apparent distress. Digital examination of the rectum revealed a stony hard mass. Abdominal plain films showed a vertically oriented, low-lying radiopaque object in the rectum. A spherical radiolucency was noted in the upper pole of the mass. A blood alcohol level was negative. No other drug testing was performed.
Upon further questioning, the patient said that approximately 4 hrs earlier he and his boyfriend had been "fooling around." After stirring a batch of concrete mix, the patient laid on his back with his feet against the wall at a 45-degree angle while his boyfriend poured the mixture through a funnel into his rectum. After the concrete mass hardened, it became so painful that he sought medical care.
Under general anesthesia, the anus was dilated and two Foley catheters were inserted alongside the rectal mass to relieve suction. A concrete case of the rectum was delivered without incident. The rectal mucosa was intact with a hyperemic and edematous appearance.
The patient was kept overnight and discharged uneventfully the following morning. The attending physician recommended a psychiatric consultation, but the patient declined.
PATHOLOGIC EXAMINATION
Examination of the specimen revealed a perfect concrete cast of the rectum, measuring 12 X 7 X 5 cm and weighing 275 g. A thin layer of feces coated the surface and crevices. Grooves in the mass were consistent with rectal mucosal folds. A layer of concrete was chipped off the upper part of the specimen and revealed a white plastic ping-pong ball. This corresponded to the radiolucency observed in the abdominal x-ray.
So do you suppose there were any penguins involved...? :)

Now the surgeon can scratch his ass as much as he likes during surgery without having to wash his hands and change gloves.
Anyway, my sister is only 27 and she's had one hip replaced for two years; and needs the other done ASAP. So it's not only old people that have osteo or need joints replaced.[1]
I don't post this for pity, or anything, but more simply to point out that one of the most difficult things for my sister and I with this disease is that no one expects people as young as we are to have such substantial problems just walking around. So I have a bit of a vested interest in pointing out that although rare, it isn't just old people that have osteoarthritis. By the way, my dad and sister have also had several arthroscopic surgeries on their knees, elbows, ankles, and shoulders. They did seem to help at least for a limited amount of time. But the joints just keeps on falling apart and making bony grit that crunches around in there; so it's temporary at best. I did read about that recent study with interest, though.
[1] I should mention that my sister actually resists the "osteoarthritis" non-professional diagnosis of our genetic disorder. It has a real, technical name that's no more descriptive, in my opinion, than "osteoarthritis" actually is; but does have the virtue, in her opinion, of being harder to fail to take seriously. She claims the actual degree of our joint deterioration is much greater than that of, say, the average 70 year-old with osteo. I have no idea. It seems bad, but these are the only joints I've ever had. Our doctors have always said that it's very, very bad.
disclaimer: I'm not a medical doctor, but am a researcher in bimechanics/lubrication of joints (in the body). I'll try not to ramble on too much !
To back up another poster - osteoarthritis is not confined to older people, though it is much more prevalent in older age groups.
Arthroscopy is a procedure which does not require the knee to be opened completely - much better for the patient (faster recovery, no general anaesthetic, etc) and a much simpler and cheaper procedure. You most likely hear about it with sports people who have damaged knees (cruciate ligaments particularly), and it is often used as an exploratory procedure so the surgeon can see exactly what is wrong inside the joint.

Not at all like over here in Ethiopia, where a quarter of us don't have food*.
So sorry... you've got a rough life there in the United States, having to go to work for a large company or your government in order to get access to health insurance, and where, by law, if you show up at a hospital emergency room with a problem (like needing anti-inflamatory medication), they have to take you, regardless of your ability to pay. I guess you must notbe able to type well enough to work for your IRS -- oh wait, you posted your whine.
(*) Yes, I think it's assinine to guarantee health insurance in a country where food clothing and shelter are not guaranteed, first. And where the cost of medical care is so high in the first place because the whole country is chock full of litigous bastards complaining about their lives being saved, and the insurance companies charge the medical industry so much for malpractice insurances, that costs on the other side are so high you can't afford it -- without insurance... are you seeing a pattern here?
And so, this is the second time they've needed remote medical help because the doctor there wasn't capable of handling the job themselves. Seems to me that this will necessarily lead to the creation of the EMH (Emergency Medical Hologram). These South Pole people really need to talk to the Star Trek people and get to work.
They're doing an unfamiliar procedure by video. Any kind of "oops" prolly wouldn't look to good to the viewing public ;-)
This is a lame story, as the people have showed! Been done before numerous times, it does not matter. It is not news. BFD.
Umm... What exactly are they doing to folks down there that causes their knees to blow out?
And no, nobody was exactly volunteering to be the first high-risk surgery attempt. It seems right that we'd try knee surgeries in a situation like this first; both the isolated patient and the lack of really bad potential outcomes make this a decent first choice.
The people with the remote heart surgery systems saw them as a training tool, for one example, first. They had some specific ideas about the steps that'd happen before the technology could be adapted for real surgery, anyway.
"Fundamentalism" isn't about divine morality. It's about human authority.
Let me say up front that this is way cool.
But reading the summary, I kept expecting to hear how you ID'd the limo from the vanity plate.

IP doesn't imply the Internet, of course.
IP was probably chosen because you could get an end to end link (most likely Ethernet at both ends of the satellite link). Satellite networks do clever things with TCP to make it work better on their high-latency links. Most video apps will be IP based these days, or require a single layer 2 (such as ISDN) end to end, which is restrictive.
I blew mine out skiing. My uncle however blew his out on an icy sidewalk. The right twist and tension will take out a tendon preaty good. Plus remember these guys are more than scientists down there, they have to more or less run a city by themselves. Catch the Discovery Channel special sometime on the Doc that got breast cancer down there.

I really wonder how practical remote surgery besides distance learning.
If we could leverage the impressive amount of cpu power currently to be found for relatively low price to replace current compression techniques with hybrid realtime 3D + Video.
For instance, easy prediction models (like the arms/smocks of the doctors, scalpels, hemostats, suction tubes) could with signatures and then compress the difficult to predict stuff (patient's entrails) with compressed video. Contrast in most operating environments means that this shouldn't be too hard to do. Then at the video destination build real-time 3D models of the cut objects to fill in the video. This should dramatically cut down on the ammount of video which needs to be compressed and transmitted.
My $0.02 will always be worth more than your â0.02, so
All the recent advances in telemedicine/remote surgery using video conferencing and robotic devices are interesting, but in the end they are not that useful. Personally, I would rather have an adequate surgeon operate on me than have the world's best surgeon do it from 3,000 miles away. The only time these devices are useful is for people that truly are stuck far from proper medical attention. If at all possible, any patient will certainly benefit from real medical attention in a hospital, but when things hit the fan in the middle of the antarctic ice, it's nice to know there is some recourse.
I suspect that surgeons participating in telesurgery must observe certain protocols themselves. "Are you certain this is where I cut?" "Yes, I am certain." "Is everyone certain this is where I make the incision?" "Yes, we are certain."

If you think this is a hoot, wait til this happens on Mars.

So, the have people capable, but no facilities for it, how is a satellite connection with an experienced doctor in Boston going to help?

Internet on south pole is tricky... not many sattelites going there.
(Always ask lots of questions - even if it pisses people off. If you don't like the setup (as in our situation) refuse to go along. In our case we told them to wait for the surgeon to arrive and be physically present in the operating room during the surgery. Who knows if he was mentally present, though.)
When I wintered over at Dumont d'Urville in '93 we broke all records with 7 surgeries, including one appendicitis. I have more info on how we coped with it and pictures as well on my site.
At the time all the doctor could rely on was a satellite voice link and a motley crew to assist him. Still much better than what the pioneers had to rely on. In Port-Martin in 1951 they did an appendicitis with sharpened kitchen knives and there's a great story about it but the link seems to be gone.
A russian doctor had to take out his own appendix in Antarctica in 1961.
Non-Linux Penguins ?
These were probably the most expensive surgeries ever. Why would someone go all the way to the south pole for knee surgery? I'm sure there are plenty of docs in highly populated areas where those needing the surgery live.
Give serendipity a chance.
...for penguins, I guess.
Wow!!! I just came so hard I thought I was gonna puke... great story!
Not really ground-breaking. This was done several years ago by NASA. See http://ctd.grc.nasa.gov/5610/telemedicine.html
If you want to know more about life in antarctica, and the realities of being a doctor, a friend of mine resigned a top surgeon's job to spend a year in antartica as medical officer (plus dentist, plus hairdresser).
Great diary, the real issues of life at the south pole, great photos... have a read of Ingrid On Ice
I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered. - George Best
Your explicit and implicit analysis is screwed up in all sorts of different ways. You seem to assume that I assert that health care should be recognized as some fundamental right; and so you are arguing that food and shelter should be prior. But I'm not arguing any such thing. IN fact, I prefer to keep the language of "rights" out of this as I think it clouds the issue too much with emotion. Instead, I'll merely point out that food and shelter is, as a practical matter, far, far more available to Americans than basic health care is. We could do better, I certainly agree; but the percentage of Americans living without food or shelter is in the single digits, while the percentage living without health care is in the double-digits. It is, in fact, a bigger problem.
My main concern is that it's a bigger economic problem. The health care system is badly broken, and it's extreme deviations from market economics for those to whom it's still available is also destroying it by destroying efficiency and misallocating resources. It's not ever working for the people that it's supposedly working for. And so, as a matter of national security -- such as defense, education, transportation -- health care is vitally important and it's a disaster in the US.
My anger about it has much less to do with my own particular problems -- I'm not sure that I think that expensive operations like joint replacement are in the national interest to casually and universall subsidize. But I do think that basic health care is, that pre and post natal health care is, that preventive medicine health care is. And my access to anti-immflamatory and pain medications makes a huge difference in my ability to go out and work, and were I to be able to do so, I'd pay more in taxes than my medication costs.
By the way, for two of the last four years I was in the highest marginal tax bracket in the US and paid about $200,000 dollars in federal taxes to the US government. Unfortunately, I kept a big port of the money I kept in the stock of the company I worked for, and I lost most of it. That's my fault, I'm not blaming anyone. But because of both my medical condition(s) and the current tech job economy, my getting a job with health insurance is no easy matter. And, as a matter of fact, while I do continue to type, I have a lot of pain in my right arm and especially my shoulder that is increasingly a problem for me for working at the computer.
Finally, just because I could show up at the ER and ask for meds doesn't mean that it's right for me to do so. (And you're wrong about this anyway. They might have to give me actual meds for that one day, but ER's don't give you prescriptions and then fill them as part of the bill. Probably for this very reason.) There's huge overhead associated with emergency room care, and this (understandable) abuse of it is a big contributing factor to the problem. A bill for such a trivial thing as a visit to get medication might be $750 or more. That cost is borne by someone, and it's not right for me to make those people bear it. For now, I whittle away at my assets by spending about $350 a month on medications. That includes antidepressents that I could get for free at a state agency (here in Texas, believe it or not) that provides services and medication for the mentally ill. Their income and asset checks are not very dilligent. I know one person who owns three homes and a nice vehicle who gets her several hundred dollars worth of antidepressents every month from this agency. I have friends and family who've been encouraging me to do this for two years. But I did do this when I was very poor about six years ago, and I've seen the people this agency helps. It would be immoral, in my opinion, for me to take hundreds of dollars of aid that I don't actually qualify for, that must inevitably come out of aid that would go elsewhere -- probably to more of those street people and the like that I saw that are made almost or actualy functional through the avilability of relatively inexpensive anti-schizophrenic drugs.
My point is, just because something's available to me (or people like me) doesn't mean that it's the right thing for us to do to avail ourselves of it. A sane, nationalized health care system would allocate health care resources incredibly more efficiently, and fairly, than the current system does. We all would benefit, not just me. That's why I support it, and am angry at the people that resist it. Not just out of my personal self-interest.
fuck
I'm 37, and the only reason I don't have two artificial hips, perhaps one artificial knee and one artificial shoulder is because I live in the US where a quarter of the population doesn't have health insurance.
No, the reason you don't have all these expensive bionic thingies is that YOU didn't have health insurance. You were either too stupid or too lazy or else you gambled on assumed health and lost.
It isn't my fault, and I shouldn't have to pay for it. Everyone I know has health insurance- it isn't that hard to come by.
