...votes were counted, Labor's McNamara had walked away with an amazing 5,351-vote plurality. Toby and Tory drew a scant 40.8% of the ballots, and Britnik Gott proved a rebel without a cause: he pulled only 253 votes, and had to forfeit his ?150 campaign deposit. Declared the Manchester Guardian: "The voters of Hull have given Mr. Wilson the clearest message of support he has had since the general election...
...heart attack is an occlusion (shutdown) caused by a thrombosis (clot formation) in one of the coronary arteries, which supply blood to the heart's own muscular walls. Physicians have long known that the dangerous clots usually form where a coronary artery is narrowed by a scaly deposit, or "plaque," of chalky, fatty material. But for all its importance, a nagging question has remained unanswered: How does the fatal clot really form...
