A study published in 2005 in the British Medical Journal found that home birthing had a similar mortality rate to that of low-risk hospital births; other studies have suggested a two- or threefold increase in the incidence of neonatal death...

...John McCain, meanwhile, has struggled. His own well-known heroic narrative, as a prisoner of war-turned-battle-tested Senator, has been eclipsed by the nation's Obama excitement.

In laboratory tests, they have demonstrated that higher water temperatures result in more male fish...
