These images are routine in modem medicine, but at the start of the century none of them was attainable because, with one exception–X-rays–the technologies did not exist. If we think of the inside of the living body as a planet awaiting exploration, the area mapped in 1901 was akin to the geography of Cape Cod. The rest of the human planet awaited surveyors. X-rays, discovered in 1895 by Wilhelm Roentgen, were still a novelty in 1901 when President William McKinley, standing before a crowd at the Pan American Exhibition in Buffalo, N....

The statement in question was made during an appearance on a show called Capitol Report. In a clip shared on Twitter by PatriotTakes, a group dedicated to following and researching right-wing extremism, the Colorado Republican attempted to confront comments made by President Joe Biden about people not being able to purchase something as powerful as a cannon when the Second Amendment was written. “There were Gatling guns,” the GOP lawmaker said during the interview, after urging people to know their history....

On August 16, the asteroid 2022 PW will pass at a distance of 1.4 LD (Lunar Distance). One LD is how far away the Moon is from the Earth. According to NASA’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS), 2022 PW is traveling at a speed of around 7.5 km/s (about 17,000 mph) and is between 75 and 100 feet across, making it roughly the size of a Boeing 737-500, or a blue whale....

A former major league infielder, Bogar has extensive experience as a minor league manager and major league coach. He had never managed in the bigs before taking over for Washington. The last-place Rangers have played relatively well under Bogar, going 8-6, including sweeps of the Braves and A’s as those teams were battling for playoff spots. Texas was 53-87 under Washington. Bogar, 47, played in the bigs from 1993 to 2001 for the Mets, Astros and Dodgers....

After spending 10 seasons as an assistant with the Broncos, followed by two seasons as co-offensive coordinator at Texas and last season as head coach at Arkansas State, Harsin has been named Chris Petersen’s successor at Boise State.

Inclement weather forced cancellation of Boise’s flight from Chicago to Lexington, the Idaho Statesman reported, and after exploring other flights, the team decided to bus it. “It won’t have any affect on the game,” senior guard Thomas Bropleh told the Statesman while on the bus. “Our coaches will have us ready. We won’t be hurting from this.” So nearly 20 hours of travel was needed to get from Boise to Lexington....

Oddly, in this era of luridly factitious memoirs, Price’s comes with unimpeachable credentials. She first came to public attention in 2006 as “AJ,” the pseudonymous subject of a paper in the journal Neurocase entitled “A Case of Unusual Autobiographical Remembering.” The lead author, James L. McGaugh, a professor of neurobiology at the University of California, Irvine, spent five years bombarding Price with psychological, neurological and physiological tests to investigate what was going on inside her otherwise quite ordinary mind....

A parable that makes you believe that one person can change the world. “Serve It Forth” by M.F.K. Fisher. A fantastic storyteller who brought beautiful literacy and sensitivity to the subject of food. “Second Nature” by Michael Pollan. A funny, wonderful teacher who takes your hand and introduces you to Mother Nature....

Conroy’s characters are well-worn stencils, like the sexy, snooty rich girl (Estella meets Daisy Buchanan) and the gluttonous Italian violin virtuoso (Paganini meets Zorba meets the cartoon chef on a pizza box), surrounding a cipher: Claude himself. Despite his upbringing (no father, loony cab-driving mother), Claude has no eccentricities; his rise occasions none of the guilty snobbism that gives Dickens’s Pip esthetic interest. Claude’s fairy-godfather mentors never turn weird, he never blows a big audition, he gets women into bed with no problems except for the embarrassingly rhapsodic prose in the sex scenes....

Here’s the now-notorious example: the poem his friends immediately set in motion around the Internet after he killed himself last month, at the age of 57. With his grandfather’s shotgun, he did his terrible best to make sure it would become an anthology piece for as long as they put together anthologies. Why didn’t everyone who knew him recognize that “you” as “I”? Maybe they all did, and maybe I was willfully naive....

Ozil in the form of his life - and Arsenal must break the bank to keep him The Belgium international was replaced on the half-hour mark by striker Vincent Janssen. With the scores at 0-0 Dembele appeared to demand an explanation from his manager Mauricio Pochettino following his substitution, and the pair looked to argue on the touchline. Dembele has been a key player for Pochettino in recent seasons, becoming integral to the Argentine’s system at White Hart Lane, and it remains to be seen if he will be selected for the crunch clash with the Gunners at the Emirates....

Over the weekend, border patrol agents seized more than $97 million worth of narcotics. Ortiz did not specify which types of narcotics were seized, but common narcotics crossing the border include heroin and fentanyl, a dangerous synthetic substance that is defined as being 50 to 100 times more potent than morphine, according to the Drug Enforcement Administration. Border patrol agencies have seen an increase in the amount of fentanyl crossing the border since President Joe Biden eased border restrictions earlier this year....

The jarring uncertainty of that “or not” and the rat-a-tat-tat, connect-the-dots, present-tense prose are the hard-boiled tattoos that mark–and sometimes disfigure–Charles Bowden’s “Down by the River.” Bowden, whose work on this book resulted in at least one contract on his head (or not), is superb at capturing the gauzy, surreally violent nature of the drug trade. And, with the war on terror eclipsing the war on drugs as this country’s leading rhetorical battleground, Bowden’s book is all the more vital as a reminder of the failure and the hypocrisy of many of America’s drug policies....

During Prime Minister’s Questions, the Labour leader focused on the COVID-19 pandemic in care homes, where he cited Office for National Statistics (ONS) figures, which showed that “at least 40 percent of all deaths from COVID-19 were in care homes”, asking if the government had been too slow to protect care homes. Starmer quoted what he said was government advice on March 12, which said: “It remains very unlikely that people receiving care in a care home will become infected....

In United States v. Tsarnaev, the nation’s highest court will be asked whether the First Circuit Court of appeals was right to overturn Tsarnaev’s death sentence for the 2013 bombing that killed three and injured more than 260. The case centers on two factors in the federal district court that convicted Tsarnaev: questions about pretrial publicity during the jury selection process, and if the court erred in excluding evidence at the sentencing phase that Tsarnaev’s brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, was involved in a separate triple murder....

Cody Silk, who was on the Bowling Green football team in 2010, will receive $712,500 from the school. MORE: SN Preseason Top 25 ranking In his suit, Silk said the failure to diagnose two concussions led him to participate in full-contact practices until he sustained a third concussion. It was only at that point that team doctors medically disqualified him from playing at Bowling Green, which is a member of the Mid-American Conference and whose football coach at the time was Dave Clawson, now at Wake Forest....
