...this line of argument is correct, then heating up other tumors - from, say, breast cancer or colon cancer - could help boost the effect of chemotherapy and radiation. Such so-called hyperthermia treatments have been tried in the past, with little success - in part because it was difficult to isolate the tumor from the normal tissue around it. But it's possible that new developments in nano-technology could change the picture...
...argument can be made that he was the most influential writer of the mid-20th century. I won't, but I don't have to, since more knowledgeable writers have. Start with Collins, the crime novelist (Road to Perdition) who is the Mick's most assiduous champion: he collaborated with Spillane on several anthologies, cast him as a featured player in two movies. Collins directed and co-authored One Lonely Knight, the only book-length study of Spillane. Collins credits Spillane with creating, in Hammer "the template for James Bond, Dirty Harry, Billy Jack, Rambo, John Shaft, and countless other...

We didn't appease Nazi Germany and imperial Japan and fascist Italy. We beat them...
...good news for all sides is that over the course of this long argument, researchers have learned more about how stem cells work, and the science has outrun the politics. Adult cells, such as those found in bone marrow, were thought to be less valuable than embryonic cells, which are "pluripotent" master cells that can turn into anything from a brain cell to a toenail. But adult cells may be more elastic than scientists thought, and could offer shortcuts to treatment that embryonic cells can't match...
