Medical School pathologist David Sinclair and researchers at a Cambridge pharmaceutical firm he helped found said they developed a chemical 1,000 times more potent than the resveratrol found in red wine and grapes...
When he was a child, Walker Miller would pick berries and bring them to his mother, who baked "the best blueberry pie you ever ate," he recalls. Today, Miller, 66, a retired Clemson University plant pathologist, has found a way to return to a bit of that past: he owns a 9-acre (3.6 hectares) pick-your-own farm in rural South Carolina, which he named the Happy Berry. At least some of the local children who pick blueberries for their mothers today pick them from Miller's fields. This pleases him--as does the simple hard work the place...
...spring of 1996, 14 groups from 11 countries swarmed Everest's lower campsite, digging in 17,600 ft. above sea level in preparation for an attempt on the summit. Among the expeditions was a 26-member New Zealand team, headed by Hall, that included Krakauer, Dallas pathologist Beck Weathers and Doug Hansen, a U.S. postal worker who had failed in a previous climb. Also on hand was an American group led by guide Scott Fischer and teams from Japan, South Africa and Taiwan...
...quite possible that Woolmer's death, caused according to the pathologist "due to asphyxia as a result of manual strangulation," is completely unrelated to cricket. Jamaica has one of the highest rates of murder in the world. But the hotel the team was staying in was well protected, and Jamaican police say there was no sign of forced entry. They have fingerprinted and questioned Pakistan's players and support staff, as well as hotel staff, and are studying videotapes from the hotel's security cameras. The tragedy of this incredible tale is not only that Woolmer is dead, but that...
Another friend tells me about the "magnetized" water and testosterone ointment he sells to folks who have seen his antiaging ads in shopping circulars. He was a brilliant pathologist; I once entrusted my patients' lives to his call on biopsy specimens. He began making a few extra bucks with naturopathics, then enough to quit real medicine altogether. I trust little about him since he started with the magnetic water because I know he knows better: he passed physics to get into med school. But now he can finally afford that Range Rover...
