...tell their story. Doctors often interrupt patients. There have been several studies done that show that on average, doctors let patients talk for 20 seconds before interrupting. Some doctors interrupted after only three seconds. Once interrupted, patients are often reluctant to go back to their story. After you answer the doctor's question, say, "Let me just go back and tell you what happened." I also think patients need to be empowered to ask doctors to explain things in language they can understand. The patient is, after all, the owner-operator of his or her body. We wouldn...
...answer is that it didn't die. It was killed by its owners in a high-stakes gamble to try to create a new and more profitable enterprise.

The new website has a paper version - also called, oddly, AnnArbor.com - that comes out on Thursdays and Sundays.

There probably wasn't anything she could have done," says Ken Grant, a retired pilot who has flown in PNG regularly over 30 years...
...money has been spent on experiments to try and detect these gravity waves and they literally have never, ever found anything. Even if they do exist, they're probably not at levels we could detect. And why did it happen at all? There is no sensible answer for the Big Bang unless you move over into the religious side and say, "Well, it began because God began it." That's why quite a lot of scientists are nervous about the Big Bang. They quite prefer having something that doesn't require somebody sort of poking a finger in and saying...
