Ever since lead singer Steve Perry was invalided out of the band with an injured hip in 1996, legendary rock group Journey hasn't been the same. Singers Steve Augeri and Jeff Scott Soto tried filling Perry's big shoes (and tight jeans), but the band - whose success had, in any case, been on a downward slide since its '80s heyday - seemed mortally wounded, relegated to the ignominious status of a nostalgia...
...suspension long gone, is a standard treatment for strangulated hernias in these parts. "For all the years I've been working here," the orderly told my wife, "no patient's strangulated hernia has failed to repair itself on the road to the hospital." Still, they had to finish the journey lest the ambulance's trip be considered in vain. My wife and her mother returned home late in the afternoon by taxi - a kind of follow-up treatment...
...many Democrats, it has been refreshing to welcome a candidate who is not only able but eager to talk about his faith journey, starting two years ago at the Call to Renewal conference when Barack Obama addressed the "God gap" head-on, calling for a "serious debate about how to reconcile faith with our modern, pluralistic democracy," and declared that "secularists are wrong when they ask believers to leave their religion at the door before entering into the public square."

...Even Mayor's newest, smallest planets are unlikely to be pastoral places. All of them lie so close to their suns that they complete one orbit in 50 days or less - compared to the lazy, 365-day journey Earth makes - meaning that any water or incipient life on their surfaces would simply sizzle away. But HARPS is already sensitive enough to spot planets that are 100,000 times smaller than their parent star. Refinements both in HARPS itself and in the next generation of planet-hunting telescopes should make them able to spot smaller and smaller stellar wobbles. Those little...
