You'd expect headline writers at major news outlets to know the difference between transplant and implant.

To quote the Veep himself: "F**k y*u Senator". He's not dead so we can and should express out feelings about what he's done to not only our society and military but to our sense of national dignity.

Halliburton stockholders may wish him well, I'm not a shareholder.

transplant is the means of replacing something that is already not working, usually used with human organ,a man usually will go for a organ transplat and not an organt implant.an implant is the means of placing something foreign inside something else,,,implantation of sperm......

Used as a medical term, a transplant refers to the transfer of an organ from one body to another, or from a certain section of the patient's own body to another area. This procedure is usually performed in order to replace a damaged or missing organ. In particular, interesting developments are being made in the field of regenerative medicine, which is a discipline that makes it possible for scientists to recreate organs from the patient's own cells. As for an implant, it is a term used to refer to the manufacture of certain body parts that may be used to replace missing or damaged limbs or organs. Most medical implants are man-made, and materials such as titanium, silicone or apatite are regularly used.
