The Lizzie Borden trial and 1890s American society
Lizzie Borden took an axe
And gave her mother forty whacks.
When she saw what she had done,
She gave her Father forty- one
At one point or another, every schoolchild typically hears this small rhyme scheme, whether to accompany a hot-scotch match or as a joke towards the macabre. The Lizzie Borden case, however, was one of America's most famous trials – like the Salem Witch Trials, The Scopes ‘Monkey' Trial, and even O.J. Simpson. All of these become iconic, yet reflect somewhat of a mirror of society and American culture of the time. Looking at these trials, we can dissect some of the social mores and cultural trends of the time, learning much about society and the very real assumptions underlying the bias and dominant cultural schemes of the time. Of course, we have the trial transcripts – quite usually far less intriguing than the books, articles, and now movies about the subject. However, we also have the unconscious testimony – what is not said or what is said in certain ways that reflect the issues that are really in context (e.g. budding adolescents in a Puritanical society in Salem, etc.).

Paget's disease of bone: etiology, pathophysiology, and treatment
In 1877, Sir James Paget first described a disease that he had identified in a small number of patients and has subsequently been called Paget's disease of bone. This disease can affect the spine, head, and other bones causing deformations and other painful symptoms. There are a number of ways to detect Paget's including radiological methods like X-Rays, CT scans, and MRI's, as well as laboratory tests. While the effects of Paget's disease are treatable, there is currently no cure for the disease.
