What Brain Images Of The Three-Million-Year Old Lucy Species Just Revealed
Brain volume changes during evolution have shown how modern human brains diverged from the brains of our closest primate cousin, the chimpanzee, and a new study takes that a step further. CT-scans of three-million-year old brain imprints inside fossil skulls of the species Australopithecus afarensis (famous for "Lucy" and "Selam" from Ethiopia's Afar region) reveals that while Lucy's species had an ape-like brain structure, the brain took longer to reach adult size, suggesting that infants may have had a longer dependence on caregivers, a human-like trait. read more

THIS ISN'T FDR IN THE MAP ROOM -- IT'S THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF 1600 PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE
According to *Vanity Fair*'s Gabriel Sherman, Donald Trump is so serious about being a "wartime president" that he's ... developed a new maturity and focus? Committed himself to long sessions of reading briefing books and consulting with experts? No. The correct answer is: He's replicated the backstabbing chaos of the 2017 White House. For an ordinary West Wing dealing with a crisis of this magnitude, the chief of staff would be a central player.... But Trump has only very intermittently been able to tolerate another person with power in his White House. Mick Mulvaney had essentia... more »

Up until now I have had no health problems. I’m a 69-year-old woman in the last room at the end of the hall before the pediatric division of the hospital begins.

None of these patients could be a day older than 17.” That’s an entry from my grandmother’s journal, dated 9/16/19... more »
