St. Helens is not erupting, but to many in Washington and northern Oregon, it sure looked like the volcano had suddenly reawakened Tuesday afternoon as strong winds stirred up leftover ash from the historic eruption 45 years ago.Images from web cameras monitoring the volcano showed plumes of ash drifting around the crater and surrounding area of the volcano nestled in the southern Washington Cascades. “There is no change in Volcano…
For years, Tylenol has generally been considered safe for treating pain and fever — even during pregnancy, when doctors discourage patients from using many medications. Doctors might even recommend taking Tylenol for pain or fever during pregnancy, because left untreated, they can pose their own health risks. But recent news reports about the federal government connecting Tylenol to autism have drawn fresh questions about the drug, and concerns. A few things are clear. After years of research, no study has shown that acetaminophen, the main ingredient in Tylenol, causes autism. There’s no known single cause of autism, a neurological condition…
Measure what is measurable, and make measurable what is not so. -Galileo Galilei Any science contends with a difficult problem: there are things we want to understand, but we cannot easily measure those things. Any tool for measurement will inherently have technical limitations (that is, limited by the technology of the time) and be subject to arbitrary choices by those doing the measuring. Sometimes we may not even be able to directly measure the thing, instead we have to rely on proxies, or on a lack of information, to track what we’re interested in. Consequently, the measurement one uses is…

On Sept. 9, the International Criminal Court (ICC) did something unprecedented: It convened a confirmation of charges hearing against Joseph Kony, the leader of the Ugandan rebel group the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA). Kony faces a long list of accusations, including war crimes and crimes against humanity. The event was historic not because of the charges themselves—they were first issued back in 2005—but because Kony wasn’t there. This is the first time that the court has moved forward with a trial in absentia. The sight of prosecutors laying out their case before an empty chair only sharpened the central question:…

Arsenal substitute Gabriel Martinelli scored 36 seconds after coming off the bench and then made a second as the Gunners started their Champions League campaign with a fine win in Bilbao. The Brazil winger replaced Eberechi Eze in the 71st minute and made an instant and telling impact, running on to Leandro Trossard’s flick and beating Unai Simon. Martinelli then scampered past a defender on the left to cut the ball back to fellow sub Trossard, and his deflected shot went in off the post to seal the win with three minutes left. The game had been deadlocked for much…
