-- Scientists today understand the universe in a very different way
than they did 50 years ago. They understand the origin of every atom,
something that Bruce Margon, a University of Washington astronomy
professor, regards as "a fundamental intellectual triumph."
What's more, those atoms all have been recycled several times over.
The bottom line, Margon said, is that we are made of stars. For more

Neurosurgery Grand Rounds - What's New In The Treatment of
Strokes? -- New developments in understanding brain function and
mechanisms of stroke have led to important new advances in the
treatment of certain strokes and cerebrovascular disease. Stroke is
not one disease, but can be caused by many conditions which effect the
cerebral circulation. It is therefore becoming increasingly important
to have a multi-disciplinary input into the management of stroke
patients to provide optimal care. Neurosurgeons have long been
involved in the care of a stroke patient since many of the conditions
which can affect the brain and cause stroke involve the
cerebrovasculature. We will discuss some of the conditions which
involve neurosurgical treatment such as subarachnoid hemorrhage from
ruptured aneurysms, intracerebral hemorrhages from aneurysms or
arteriovenous malformations, extracranial vascular disease including
carotid artery and vertebral artery stenosis, revascularization and
bypass procedures, as well as cranial decompression for the treatment
of brain swelling. Presentations by Professor Kyra Becker and Dr.
David Newell: Kyra Becker, Assistant Professor, Neurology and
Neurological Surgery, Co-Director University of Washington Stroke
Center at Harborview. Kyra Becker will talk about what is new in the
prevention and treatment of stroke. This includes recent data on what
can be done to prevent first ever strokes as well as what can be done
to prevent recurrent strokes. She will also talk about what therapies
are proven to increase the odds of having a good outcome in acute
stroke and offer speculation about the future of stroke therapy and
discuss the studies that are in progress. David W. Newell, M.D.,
Assoc. Professor and Director, Cerebrovascular Laboratory, Director,
UW Stroke Center at Harborview Medical Center. David Newell may
include an actual patient and/or a demonstration of the special
Ultrasound equipment used to detect and map stroke activity. He will
also cover recent developments in the treatment of strokes. Recorded

System: A Fiber-Optic Telescope to Inner Space -- Images relayed
last month from the Galileo spacecraft have provided the most
compelling evidence yet that there are likely to be two oceans in our
solar system: one on Earth and one on Europa, a moon circling Jupiter.
Find out how studying the ocean right off the coast of Washington
could be a key in exploring the seas of Europa in search of
extraterrestrial life -- life that scientists speculate could be like
the microorganisms flourishing in the deepest regions of our own
oceans. Speaker: John Delaney, Oceanography, University of Washington.

What Follows - Doug Jeck -- The ceramic figures of
Doug Jeck are fragmented, dismembered, defeated and highly realistic.
Their poses allude to Greek and Roman statuary but Jeck cuts off arms
and legs, sometimes reattaching a replacement hand, but more
frequently leaving the figure without some of its limbs. With his
composite figures Jeck illustrates that there is no single original
and therefore there is no heroic paradigm. This suggests that any
attempts to imply the heroic could merely be social intervention. Doug
Jeck received his B.F.A. from the Appalachian Center for the Arts and
Crafts, his M.F.A from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and
is an Assistant Professor of Ceramic Art at the University of
Washington in Seattle. Program runs 35:24. |

Neurosurgery Grand Rounds - What's New In The Treatment of
Strokes? -- New developments in understanding brain function and
mechanisms of stroke have led to important new advances in the
treatment of certain strokes and cerebrovascular disease. Stroke is
not one disease, but can be caused by many conditions which effect the
cerebral circulation. It is therefore becoming increasingly important
to have a multi-disciplinary input into the management of stroke
patients to provide optimal care. Neurosurgeons have long been
involved in the care of a stroke patient since many of the conditions
which can affect the brain and cause stroke involve the
cerebrovasculature. We will discuss some of the conditions which
involve neurosurgical treatment such as subarachnoid hemorrhage from
ruptured aneurysms, intracerebral hemorrhages from aneurysms or
arteriovenous malformations, extracranial vascular disease including
carotid artery and vertebral artery stenosis, revascularization and
bypass procedures, as well as cranial decompression for the treatment
of brain swelling. Presentations by Professor Kyra Becker and Dr.
David Newell: Kyra Becker, Assistant Professor, Neurology and
Neurological Surgery, Co-Director University of Washington Stroke
Center at Harborview. Kyra Becker will talk about what is new in the
prevention and treatment of stroke. This includes recent data on what
can be done to prevent first ever strokes as well as what can be done
to prevent recurrent strokes. She will also talk about what therapies
are proven to increase the odds of having a good outcome in acute
stroke and offer speculation about the future of stroke therapy and
discuss the studies that are in progress. David W. Newell, M.D.,
Assoc. Professor and Director, Cerebrovascular Laboratory, Director,
UW Stroke Center at Harborview Medical Center. David Newell may
include an actual patient and/or a demonstration of the special
Ultrasound equipment used to detect and map stroke activity. He will

reading because the goal is to get the child to talk. This activity

appeared in numerous magazines including Saturday Night and McCalls.
Her new book (with illustrator Cynthia Nugent), Mr. Got to Go, was
inspired by a stay at the Sylvia Hotel in Vancouver, where she first
met "the large stray cat who seemed to own the place."
Simmie is also an accomplished author of books for adults. Her novel
They Shouldn't Make You Promise That was a best seller. She has also
published a book of short stories, Betty Lee Bonner Lives There, and a
non-fiction account of a Mountie who almost gets away with murder in
the WWI-era Canadian West called The Secret Lives of Sgt. John Wilson.
-and- Jim Grimsley - North Carolina native Jim Grimsley was the
recipient of Newsday's George Oppenheimer Award as the best new
American playwright of 1988. His plays are regularly produced
throughout the United States and at Atlanta's 7Stages Theatre, where
he is writer-in-residence. Jim Grimsley's harrowing first novel of
family violence, Winter Birds, has been described as "a story
that blisters the sensibilities and shreds the heartstrings." His
critically acclaimed second novel Dream Boy, an electrifying story of
adolescent gay love, confirms the promise of his award-winning debut.
Mr. Grimsley is the recipient of the Sue Kaufman Prize for First
Fiction from the American Academy of Arts and Letters and was a
PEN/Hemingway Award finalist. |

What Follows - Nobuho Nagasawa -- Nobuho Nagasawa's
earthworks, museum installations and public art are all specific to
their particular location. Nagasawa never conceives an idea until she
has visited a site and conducted extensive research into the area's
past. She states, "I believe that art can provide a visual poetry
to the environment as well as funtion as a catalyst to deconstruct and
reinvent a new vision of our society. By revealing personal memories,
collective histories, hidden myths, and contradictory issues of human
nature, I try to explore social and personal facets that can galvanize
public interaction." Nobuho Nagasawa received her M.F.A. from
Hochschule de Kunste in Berlin, Germany in 1985 and has taught at the
University of California, Santa Cruz since 1996. Program runs 36:33. |

Language is the Key - Talking and Books -- Host: Linda
Kennedy Looking at picture books is a good way for children to
practice talking. Learning that pictures depict real things is a step
in learning that words stand for something and that printed words tell
a story. Looking at picture books with a child is different from
reading because the goal is to get the child to talk. This activity
will prompt children to understand new words and discover better ways
to express themselves. Videotapes of this series are availble for
