Production was stressful due to a small team and tight development period. The game began development in early 2006. Gameplay combines surgical simulation with a story told as a visual novel, with operations and control options reworked for the Wii hardware. Second Opinion expands on the original narrative through the perspective of Naomi Kimishima, another doctor with the Healing Touch. Set in a near future where medical science can cure previously incurable diseases, the story follows young surgeon Derek Stiles as he uses his mystical "Healing Touch" to treat a new disease dubbed GUILT. The game was released in North America and Japan in 2006 by Atlus as a console launch title, and in other regions in 2007 by Nintendo. The second entry in the Trauma Center series, Second Opinion is a remake of the Nintendo DS title Trauma Center: Under the Knife (2005).

Records, by their nature, are made to be broken." "I want to accomplish this to inspire other people to do similarly ambitious things. "The real thing I want to do is to inspire people to go out and do the kind of things they can do," he says. If that dream is to break the record he sets as a 19-year-old, so be it. He dubbed his solo journey "Limitless Horizons." It may inspire others to pursue their dreams, he says. Since he's attempting to set an age record, not one involving speed, Matt Guthmiller will use part of his five-week trip to tour cities such as London, Rome, Athens and Dubai and tour Egypt. His future plans are undetermined, although founding the next Apple is something he dreams about. With the traffic there, he could be killed walking across the street to classes."Īt MIT, Matt Guthmiller is studying electrical engineering and computer science. "I learned a long time ago - my faith means a tremendous amount to me - that worry will not help a bit," she says calmly. Shirley Guthmiller will be there, waving him off with no anxiety. People are welcome to come out and view the airplane and see him off, Guthmiller says. today from Hangar 9 at the Aberdeen airport.


Weather permitting, he leaves about 10:30 a.m. Saturday, his official first day, was to take him from California to Aberdeen. Waiting for FAA approval of his plane modifications delayed last week's planned start of Guthmiller's trip. Working on the logistics on where he has stopped kept him busy planning the trip for several months. That will be useful once he leaves Europe and stops in countries where most of the airplane fuel is for jets, not small planes. He now estimates he can travel 3,000 miles. That aircraft generally travels about 1,000 miles between stops, but this plane was modified with the removal of several passenger seats and the addition of fuel tanks. He has rented a 1981 Beechcraft A36, a 6-foot, single-engine airplane for his 28,000-mile journey. Matt Guthmiller has several sponsors for his solo flight and hopes to add more. Its goal is to expand access to computer science, especially in underserved areas. In fact, his pursuit of a Guinness World Record will benefit a charity named. In fifth grade, he began writing computer code. In high school, he produced algorithms that could predict crude oil prices and used supercomputers to analyze stock trades. He later sold that business to a similar company. "Unlocking it allowed you to be able to use it with any carrier in the world." "When it first came out, it was only available in the United States and on AT&T," Matt Guthmiller explains. When he was 12, he started his own business, a company that unlocked iPhones. He had made it clear long before that, however, that he had goals greater than a typical teenager. He graduated from Central High School last year. Matt Guthmiller's father, Allen Guthmiller, and mother both live in Aberdeen. "I've never been worried about Matthew doing anything small," his mother, Shirley Guthmiller, says. The previous record was set last July by a 21-year-old pilot. He is 19, and a freshman at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Seventeen years after that fateful cake, Guthmiller leaves today from the Aberdeen airport on the second leg of his quest to be the youngest person to fly solo around the world. If you believe in omens, that birthday cake surely was one. On a runway made of frosting, the cake-maker set a small airplane. When Matt Guthmiller celebrated his second birthday, he blew out candles on a cake decorated to resemble an airport, with trucks and a fuel tanker.
