...make the case for ordering a cardiac catheterization. But because she continues to complain of chest pains, doctors are reluctant to send her home. So they keep her under observation, waiting to see if anything happens. A 64-slice CT scan of her heart and lungs could provide enough detail to rule any of those conditions in or out on the spot...
...lumber-shredding, screeching Canadian eagle of vengeance? The willfully weird but kind of dull experimenter? The acoustic guy? This time it's just Good Neil. Neil Young, 59, started making Prairie Wind, out Sept. 27, his (lordy) 31st album, a week before he had brain surgery--a nice p.r. detail but also a legit reason for him to think about mortality and drift back to his days on the Canadian steppe. There's politics and religion too, as well as some of Nashville's best musicians, though it's not really a country album. It's more a unified theory...
...pleasures--socially relevant party music. But in the mid-'90s, the genre came to be dominated by people like Snoop Dogg (sample track: Murder Was the Case), the Notorious B.I.G.

The $14 model, top, works best for bigger game, such as grouper...
...selection explain how multiple species evolved from a common ancestor over very long periods of time. I find no compelling examples that this process is insufficient to explain the rich variety of life forms present on this planet. While no one could claim yet to have ferreted out every detail of how evolution works, I do not see any significant "gaps" in the progressive development of life's complex structures that would require divine intervention. In any case, efforts to insert God into the gaps of contemporary human understanding of nature have not fared well in the past...
