Tumors, or abnormal growths, occur in bone tissue, though most are benign. Cancerous tumors can be caused by excessive radiation; many radioactivesubstances have an affinity for bone, particularly the marrow, and are readily stored there. Most cancerous tumors in bones, however, are tumors that spread fromcancer in other par...

  Krone, her mud-spattered face tracked by tears, was nearly speechless in the winner's circle. “How do you stop crying?” she asked one of Colonial Affair's practiceriders, according to Sports Illustrated. “You don't,” he replied.

Her win was the first ever by a femalejockey in a Triple Crown race—the Belmont, Kentucky Derby, or Preakness. Krone chose to downplay the issue....

• Excerpt from A Christmas Carol - anthology.

  External heat and cold had little influence on Scrooge. No warmth could warm, no wintry weather chill him. No wind that blew was bitterer than he, no falling snowwas more intent upon its purpose, no pelting rain less open to entreaty. Foul weather didn’t know where to have him. The heaviest rain, and snow, and hail, and sleet,could boast of the advantage over him in only one respect. They often “came down” handsomely and Scrooge never did. Nobody ever stopped him in the street to say, with g...

• La Psychiatrie est elle une science?

  distinguish science from non-science. Philosophers of science now generally agree that the search for a demarcation criterion has failed. However, in other disciplines the search for a means of distinguishing science from pseudoscience continues. I review the current debate in psychology and psychiatry. Then, returning to philosophical work, I discuss and support accounts according to which 'science' is best considered a family resemblance term. This suggests that whether psychiatric research is...

They can, however, change; indeed they changeconstantly; but they change from within. Since they have no physical properties to alter, their changes must bechanges of men...
