  Thomas Alva Edison (February 11, 1847 – October 18, 1931) was an American inventor and businessman. He developed many devices that greatly influenced life around the world, including the phonograph, motion picture camera, and a long-lasting, practical electric light bulb. Dubbed "The Wizard of Menlo Park", he was one of the first inventors to apply the principles of mass production and large-scale teamwork to the process of invention, and because of that, he is often credited with the creation of the first industrial research laboratory. The following, from 1908, is a commemoration at the New York Electrical Show of the 50th anniversary of the first Atlantic cable. Thomas Augustus Watson (January 18, 1854 – December 13, 1934) was as a bookkeeper and a carpenter before becoming an assistant to Alexander Graham Bell, aiding in the the invention of the telephone in 1876. He is best known because his name was one of the first words spoken over the telephone. "Mr. Watson, come here, I want to see you," were the first words Bell said using the new invention, according to Bell's laboratory notebook. Guglielmo Marconi (25 April 1874 – 20 July 1937) was an Italian inventor, known for his pioneering work on long distance radio transmission and radio telegraph system. Marconi shared the 1909 Nobel Prize in Physics with Karl Ferdinand Braun "in recognition of their contributions to the development of wireless telegraphy". As an entrepreneur, businessman, and founder of the The Wireless Telegraph & Signal Company in Britain in 1897, Marconi succeeded in making a commercial success of radio by innovating and building on the work of previous experimenters and physicists. The following is from a talk he gave in 1935 about how he received the first transatlantic message by wireless telegraphy.

  Lyme Disease - Diagnosis...

  Lyme disease is an infectious illness primarily caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi, which is transmitted to humans through the bite of an infected black-legged tick, commonly known as the deer tick. The disease is named after Lyme, Connecticut, where the first recognized outbreak occurred in the 1970s. Since then, Lyme disease has become the most common vector-borne disease in the United States and many parts of the world, with cases steadily increasing due to expanding tick populations and climate changes. 
  The bacteria responsible for Lyme disease are typically introduced into the human bloodstream when an infected tick attaches itself to the skin and begins feeding. The early signs of Lyme disease can range from mild to severe and are often mistaken for other common illnesses. The most notable symptom is a circular, red rash, often described as a "bull's-eye," which can appear at the site of the tick bite. This rash, called erythema migrans, occurs in approximately 70-80% of patients and is considered a hallmark of early Lyme disease. However, not everyone with Lyme disease develops this rash, and other flu-like symptoms such as fever, fatigue, muscle and joint aches, and headache may also appear. 
  If left untreated, Lyme disease can progress to more severe stages, where it may affect the joints, nervous system, and heart. In some cases, patients may experience chronic symptoms such as joint pain, neurological problems, and persistent fatigue, even after the initial infection has been treated. This stage is known as "post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome" (PTLDS), where symptoms can linger for months or even years.

  The Great Dead Body Teachers

  An adventure into the world of anatomy and dissection. 
  Since I was a child, I’ve been interested in dead bodies. When I was eight years old, I dug up the remains of my pet budgie Zazbut. He had been buried for about eight weeks in a patch of grass outside our house in Dasmarinas, a fortified village in Manila, in the Philippines. 
   
  ‘The first exhumation was the beginning of my intrigue with death, which has persisted. As a journalist, I’ve written about graveyards, funerals and death doulas. I always visit the local cemetery wherever I am in the world. But one thing that has largely been hidden from me in this death trip is the dead body. 
   
  Dissection might not be a normal topic to contemplate but when both your paternal grandparents donate their bodies to science it does intermittently cross your mind. 
   
  This is the story of how Jackie Dent’s grandparents - Ruby and Julie - gave their bodies to science when they died. No one in her family seems to know why, or what really happened with their bodies afterwards. Were they avid science buffs? Was it to save on cremation costs? How do scientists tackle the practicalities and ethics of cutting up the dead for research? And who are body donors generally? 
    
  Weaving the personal with the history of anatomy and the dissected, Jackie Dent explores the world of whole-body donation — all the while looking for answers as to what happened to her grandparents.

  The modern racing yacht is awash with onboard instruments and electronics giving enormous amounts of data. But few people fully understand how to get the most out of all the information at their fingertips, let alone make it useful for the team to enable them to win races. But ace navigators, Mark Chisnell and Gilberto Pastorella, do – both have worked with professional sailing programmes all over the world – from America's Cup to Maxi, ORC / IRC and one-design fleets. In Mastering Data to Win they take the reader through the process: from understanding the concepts, ensuring accuracy, using the data to win races and then post-race analysis to find performance gains. By mastering your instruments you can make the right calls every time and know for certain when to tack, which shift to look out for and how the tide can work with or against you. With colour diagrams and photographs throughout, this instructional guide turns information into excellence.  Accessible to those new to racing, it also has a depth of information that will transform the performance of even professional sailors.
