Welcome to this week's episode of The Lead. Join HRS Digital Education Committee member and podcast host Danesh Kella, MBBS, FHRS as he welcomes his guests Rahul N Doshi, MD, FHRS and Robert D Schaller, DO, FHRS. They are discussing Mechanical Vacuum Aspiration and Debulking of Large Vegetations During Cardiac Implantable Electronic Device Extractions, which was published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology in October 2025. This article describes the use of mechanical vacuum aspiration systems to debulk large intracardiac vegetations during cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) extraction, aiming to reduce embolic risk and procedural complications. The authors highlight procedural techniques, patient selection, and safety considerations when combining aspiration with transvenous lead extraction. This approach represents an important adjunctive strategy for managing complex CIED infections with large vegetations. Learning Objectives Describe the role of mechanical vacuum aspiration in the management of large vegetations during CIED extraction procedures. Identify patient selection criteria and procedural considerations for safely combining vegetation debulking with transvenous lead extraction. Recognize potential risks, benefits, and complications associated with aspiration-assisted extraction in patients with CIED infection.

One of the many special things in Train Dreams, directed by Clint Bentley, is the production design. Nearly every element of each setting feels like it was just sitting there, waiting to be captured. Of course, this is not the case. It was meticulously, carefully planned and built. The Film Stage's Dan Mecca was lucky and honored to speak with Alexandra Schaller, the film's production designer, about the agonies and ecstasies of bringing Train Dreams to life, as well as some earlier, accomplished work in her career. Additional thanks to Schaller, who provided The Film Stage access to mood boards and behind-the-scenes photos from the project.

Alan Schaller discusses the challenges photographers face in the digital age, particularly concerning book publishing. He highlights how many photographers are resigned to not publishing books due to low royalties (often under 10%) offered by traditional publishers. Schaller then introduces Irys's innovative business model, which aims to pay artists a 50% royalty on book sales, making it a "game-changer" for the industry. He also details Iris's plans for physical galleries and bookstores, fostering a community for photographers.Show Clip from The Paris Chong Show with Alan Schallerhttps://youtu.be/XeQEMtOU4pEhttps://www.theparischongshow.com

From 1967 through 1981, Fender used the now-infamous F-stamped tuners on many Telecasters, Stratocasters, and the majority of their product line. For some players, they're a charming piece of CBS-era design; for others, they're a headache.In this episode, I dig into the full story of why Fender switched from Kluson tuners in 1967, who actually made the F-tuners, how they changed through the 1970s, and what their strengths and weaknesses really are.I also cover how the original version 1967-75, have no modern replacement, and the only option is to buy used originals. For the 1975-81 F-style tuners , I look at the modern replacements that fit the original footprint, and which offer better performance. We'll also look at the modern reissue F-Tuners, which are based on the latter style made by Schaller, yet they were used on reissues that should have had the earlier style.By the end, you'll know how to identify each version, how to keep them working smoothly, and the best paths for replacement or restoration, whether you're chasing originality or reliability.Support the show
The Long Island Serial Killings, also known as the Gilgo Beach Murders or the Craigslist Ripper case, is an unsolved serial murder investigation centered around the discovery of numerous human remains on Long Island, New York. The case has been ongoing since 2010 and remains unsolved as of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021.The initial discovery took place on December 11, 2010, when police were searching for a missing woman named Shannan Gilbert, a sex worker who had gone to meet a client in Oak Beach, Suffolk County. During the search, police found the remains of four women in the vicinity of Gilgo Beach. These victims were later identified as Megan Waterman, Maureen Brainard-Barnes, Melissa Barthelemy, and Amber Lynn Costello, all of whom were also involved in sex work.As the investigation progressed, additional remains were discovered in the same area. In March and April 2011, six more sets of remains were found, along with the remains of an unidentified toddler, who came to be known as "Baby Doe" or "Jane Doe #6." The additional victims were identified as Jessica Taylor, Valerie Mack, Jane Doe #6 (the toddler), and an Asian male dressed in women's clothing.The police discovered that many of the victims had connections to the sex trade and had advertised their services on websites like Craigslist.This led investigators to suspect that a serial killer, dubbed the "Long Island Serial Killer" or "Craigslist Ripper," was specifically targeting sex workers in the area.The case gained significant media attention and sparked a large-scale investigation involving local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies. The search for additional evidence continued over the years, including the use of cadaver dogs, aerial searches, and the excavation of specific areas.Despite these efforts, no further bodies were found.The investigation faced various challenges and controversies. Shannan Gilbert's disappearance and death were initially treated as unrelated to the serial killings. However, her death was later attributed to accidental drowning. The mishandling of the case and the delayed response to her initial 911 call raised questions about the police's handling of the investigation.Then on July 13th, 2023 an arrest in the case was finally made. The man arrested? Rex Heuermann. In this episode, we hear from Dave Schaller, the man who gave the police the tip about who Heuermann was over a decade ago and even gave them a description of the vehicle the alleged serial killer was driving.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:He came face to face with an alleged serial killer. 12 years later, his tip helped crack the case | AP News
