What conditions are needed for a surgeon to perform CABG?

My father (71) was admitted to the hospital last week where they discovered he had an EF of 35%, severe blockage throughout his heart, and a thrombosis at the apex. They transferred him to a larger hospital where after a week of blood thinners he has an EF of 49% and otherwise better vitals; however, the hospital will not perform a CABG or place stents. Instead they are sending him home with a vest for at least 6 weeks before they take any action. They have given us a host of different reasons for postponing (too much blockage for stents, chest cysts in the way of the heart for CABG), but I feel like they are just kicking the can down the road. Otherwise, my father's other organs are in good condition, he is overweight (5'8 220), but he also has been active and working as a Dentist up until he was admitted.

I want to get a clear idea of what an older patient looks like to be a good candidate for CABG.

Custom campaign map crashes after generating settlement notables - how to remove unused vanilla assets?

I am fairly new to this and struggling to get my mod to start in the Sandbox. I believe this has something to do with me only using a portion of Vanilla assets in the scene.

So far whats worked:

- Got my custom campaign map to load with all the vanilla settlments, nobles, etc.
- I've changed some city and noble names

What has me stuck

- When I try to load the Sandbox with only some of the settlements or nobles I can't get it to load.

I believe I've cleared them from the map and the appropriate xmls is there somewhere I might be missing. Is there a comprehensive list of where these things need to be removed from?

Current setup:

53 settlements with matching scene markers

Editor-generated distance cache completes successfully

2 kingdoms, 4 clans, and 29 heroes

Custom XML passes the Bannerlord schemas

When starting a fresh Sandbox campaign, the map loads and the game generates five wanderers and all settlement notables.

I previously tested a larger structure with 8 kingdoms, 16 clans, and 111 heroes, and it crashed at the same point. Keeping the complete vanilla campaign structure works, but causes hundreds of unused settlement markers to stack on the custom map.

The crash error is 0xC0000005
Attempted read from address 0x78

Does Bannerlord require specific vanilla settlements, factions, heroes, or other campaign records during Sandbox initialization?

How do total-conversion mods safely remove vanilla settlements and political structures?
Are certain campaign behaviors normally replaced in C#, or are unused compatibility records retained?

Anyone have a simple example of a mod that only holds a few cities/heroes

Let me know if there is anything else I can share.

Who is responsible for replacing windows and window frames?

Who is responsible for replacing windows and window frames? The owner or the coop? Is it a mix of the two? Our Board president gave us a confusing answer (they are relatively new and we are switching management as well). The gist of what they said was that it ends up being a mix of the two unless its a building wide redo. Right now I don't think a building wide replacement is in the plan, but we desperately need ours replaced as we struggle with bugs and keeping warm/cool in the winter/summer.

Hyatt Ginza vs Palace Hotel

Having a tough time deciding between the Hyatt Ginza vs Palace Hotel. The Hyatt Ginza seems a little over-priced, but I am able to use my Hyatt points there (30k per night). Through Amex FHR I can book the Palace Hotel for around ~$600 per night (this comes with breakfast and dining credits). They both seem centrally located and have good reviews. Anything I might be missing deciding between the two?

Is there any situation where I should remove the input plate from my 5080 FE to fit in a case?

Is there any situation where I should remove the input plate from my 5080 FE to fit in a case? I tried it and it works but doesnt sit right? I have enough space for the GPU, but the length between the IO bracket and the start of the PCI slot is too narrow.

Im not sure the exact case model but its the LianLi that comes with the powespec b947.

PowerSpec Warranty - How far will it cover changes/upgrades?

I bought a PowerSpec B947 as I already had a 5080. I know adding/removing the card doesnt impact its eligibility, but what if I switched cases or reinstalled Windows? Is it covered as long as what I bring to them is the original configuration?

Very tiny bugs by baseboard

There are a good amount of these bugs under my desk by the baseboard. They are very small about the size of a speck.I have bites on my feet. Im in NYC. I've seen bed bugs previously (10 years ago in an old apartment), and these are substantially smaller. Babies? Edit: the ones in the photo are the largest I see.

Roth 401k vs Roth IRA

Is there a substantial difference between these two setups

- Trad IRA, 30% Roth 401k, 70% Trad 401k

- Roth IRA, 100% Trad 401k

If I did do a Roth IRA it would have to be backdoor, so the first option seems like it has slightly less administrative work.

Best Option to Osaka After Landing in Tokyo

We land at HND at around 4PM could we reasonably catch the train to Osaka that same day or are we better of staying the night in Tokyo (I see the last train leaves at 21:20). I've been warned to avoid taking a plane it if I didn't book on the same ticket.

JAL Partnership Awards Recently?

I know there is a lot of phantom availability, but wanted to know if anyone here has had recent (in the last week or two) success booking a JAL non-economy ticket with Qantas points? Trying to gauge whether it's worth it to follow up with a phone call for the things I do see.

JAL Phantom Availability on Cathay and Qantas

Anyone else seeing a large amount of phantom availability for JAL on Cathay and Qantas? Called Cathay and Qantas to confirm two different dates but both were unavailable on the agents end. JAL does seem to have award availability on those dates (not saver). Is there any other way to confirm without listing off dates to the agents on the phone? I'll do it, but would like a way to do a sniff test first.

Forgot I rebooked my flight a year ago - had to downgrade and pay more points.

I booked my flight with VA a year ago and quickly rebooked to a new date scheduled week later. Earlier this year I booked hotels and a return flight based on my original ticket - that's what I still had in my email. Woke up to a new email this morning with my actual flight info. I called Virgin and best I could do was downgrade from First to Premium and pay an extra 12k points.

Tried to convince my wife to stay another week but that didn't work ha. Lesson for me to not rely on emails and check in the web portals instead.
