    -snip- Q. Will stem cells eventually play a role in relieving ankle or foot pain? A. I was once told that all the metal and plastic inserts we are using in orthopedic surgery would be laughed at in 20 years, similar to the way we look at wooden teeth now. This is because the goal of medicine is to regenerate ourselves. Tissue engineering and work with stem cells are actually giving us that opportunity. In orthopedics, the problem with cartilage, the translucent rubbery material that covers and protects the ends of bone, is that it doesn’t want to regenerate. We...

    Kobe-less Lakers still beat LeBron, Cavs LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Lakers star Kobe Bryant sustained what the team called a severely sprained right ankle midway through the first quarter of Thursday night's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers and had to be helped off the court. X-rays were negative, but Bryant will have an MRI on Friday, team spokesman John Black said. Bryant, the NBA's second-leading scorer with a 28.2-point average, was injured when he landed on Ira Newble's right foot while going for a rebound under the Cavaliers' basket. Newble was called for a foul on the play. Bryant immediately...

    BOSTON -- So what torturous medical procedure will Curt Schilling endure before his next start? How about gall bladder surgery, just for fun? Has he considered having 18-inch acupuncture needles inserted in his toenails? Or he could always have the Greater Boston Sewing Club stop by his house and practice needlepoint techniques on his ankle. Whatever, it's clear this man's favorite cliché as a kid had to be "no pain, no gain." Because Schilling is on the verge of winning the rarest of October triple crowns -- wins, quality starts and pain tolerance. It hurts merely to hear him describe...
  • "That dog don't hunt" CARTOON featuring Ted Kennedy by Linda Eddy

    IowaPresidentialWatch.com / Sen. Ted (Chappaquiddick) Kennedy continued to be the rabid dog for the John Kerry Presidential campaign. Kennedy failed to link President Bush to Joe McCarthy but did link the President to Richard Nixon. "As a result, this president has now created the largest credibility gap since Richard Nixon," Kennedy said in a speech at the Brookings Institution. "He has broken the basic bond of trust with the American people." Kennedy basically said every statement President Bush has ever uttered is a lie. Kennedy has been out of control for months in much the same way John Dean in...

    (Story originally appreared in the American Spectator, March 97) It seems that Hillary, who's had her fingerprints found on all the new scandals that are breaking on a daily basis is trying to fix her public image. So, to promote the new effort, showing how deeply Hillary cares about children, especially sick children in hospitals, Georgetown University Medical Center in Washington got a call. Hillary Clinton would be coming over soon with children's author Maurice Sendak. Hillary's advance team would be showing up arranging the security and logistics. The team did show up. What they saw horrified them. The kids...

    <p>Tuesday, November 19, was truly [1] a black, black day for this nation and one I never dreamed would happen here.</p> <p>I remember vividly as a child watching Nikita Khrushchev standing at the UN beating his shoe against the podium and shouting that they (the then Soviet Union) would take us over without firing a shot. Little did we know or ever dream then that the Soviet Union would fall but that a truly [2] evil man from Texas and his equally evil regime from Cheney on down would take us over from within and that the Democrats would completely collapse before our eyes and help him do it. This truly [3] began with the stolen election of 2000.</p>
