he put [John] Keats on a starvation diet of just an anchovy and a piece of bread a day to cut the flow of blood to his stomach. "You cannot think how dreadful this is for me," [Joseph] Severn wrote to a friend. "The Doctor on the one hand tells me I shall kill him to give him more than he allows--and Keats raves till I am in a complete tremble for him." Clark, who went on to be...
A last farewell - Abdel-Moneim Said remembers Mohamed El-Sayed Said DISPATCHES FROM AMERICA : Failed war president or prince of peace? - Should he take the peace-maker route, United States President Barack Obama stands a chance of success. History suggests that the path of war will be a surefire loser. The past half-century makes clear what the US military can achieve - destruction and mayhem; and...
Dr James Clark's series of misdiagnoses left poet starving and in agony, argues study of Joseph Severn The agonies of John Keats's final months in Rome were partly the result of his doctor's misdiagnoses, according to a new biography. When the poet arrived in Rome from London in November of 1820, Dr James Clark initially ruled that "mental exertions and application" were "the sources...

The maple seed device seen next to actual samara seeds. (Credit: Eric Schurr/A. James Clark School of Engineering, University of Maryland) Remember as a kid being entertained by how maple tree seeds (or samara fruit) would spin like helicopters as they fell around you in the fall? I do, and that's why I love this prototype rotorcraft by graduate students at the University of Maryland's A. James Clark...

It wasn't mistaken identity. It was, arguably, something worse: Bullying gone lethal. Nine days after a teen on a bike blasted a hole in 14-year-old Kareem Haynes' chest, police charged a teenage acquaintance with murder. Suspect Charles Wilson, 17, of Marston Street near Allegheny Avenue in North Philadelphia, used a gun from his grandmother's house earlier this month to end his longtime feud with...
Try as I might, it’s difficult for me to think of Vivo Barefoot as a small startup company. That’s because the story of the brand is more accurately the story of Galahad Clark, a 7th-generation shoemaker and scion of England’s Clark Shoe Company empire. The family business was founded by brothers Cyrus and James Clark – thus the company’s formal title of C&J Clark,...
Go away. Why are you here? Why won't you go? What's keeping you here (other than perverse pleasure at seeing a solitary soul suffer an invasion of privacy)? Ah, I see, you came here for something only I can offer you. Would that be a sample of my DNA for future cloning? Because I'd have to refuse, on the grounds that it would probably only make me twice as grumpy. So... oh, it's not the DNA you're...
I always wanted to be able to speak at least three different languages, fluently. Sure, like a lot of folks, I can get by with a little Spanish and a little French. But I can't honestly say that I can speak another language fluently. (Jamaican Patoi [p-a-t-w-a] doesn't count. I can chat di patoi with the best of them. But as exotic as it might sound, it's still just broken English.) Unfortunately,...

Today Clarks shoes produces almost 35 million pairs of shoes year. But despite its international success, the company had humble beginnings. Founded in 1825 by Cyrus and James Clark in the small English village of Street in Somerset, Clarks shoes began as nothing more than a local sheepskin slipper business. The small business endured, however, and by the mid 1900’s Clarks was an international success....
