Why do the heavenly bodies behave in a contrary fashion to what we are familiar with on earth? Before a wheel can turn, we must ensure rim is joined to axle, before a couple can dance in circle, their hands must be joined. In contrast, the planets circle the sun and the moons circle the planets without any securing mechanism, and so precisely that their movements can be predicted to a millisecond. Again, why is it that, released from the effe...

Tatsächlich sind Propheten des Älteren Elementaren Auges am Werk, um Chaos in ...

5 agosto 1962. In una delle tante villette di un anonimo sobborgo di Los Angeles giace il corpo immobile di una donna. Riversa a faccia in giù sul letto, la mano aggrappata al telefono, soltanto un lenzuolo a coprirle la schiena, sembra vittima della depressione e di un potente cocktail di barbiturici. Ma quando Ben Fitzgerald, vicecoroner della polizia di Los Angeles, arriva sul posto, capisce che la faccenda è più complicata del previsto. Pe...

Most archaeologists and bioarchaeologists receive little or no training in the recognition of skeletal remains of fetuses, infants, and children. Yet many research sites may contain such materials. Without a framework for identifying the bones or the excavation techniques suited to their recovery, archaeologists may often overlook subadult skeletal remains or even confuse them with animal bones.

Since the first use of basic life support (BLS) and defibrillation in the pre-hospital setting in Belfast in 1966, few would argue that there have been major improvements in the rate of survival for out-of-hospital cardiac arrests. Indeed, until the widespread introduction of BLS and defibrillators to emergency medical service (EMS) vehicles, an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest would mean certain death. The initial rhythm of a patient in cardiac...
