‘I met him [Bowie] when I was in a restaurant in Kensington. We exchanged phone numbers and stuff like that and we kept in touch. These photos were taken in Dublin, where we’d gone for the weekend. The little girl was an unknown interloper’

The latest misogynist tricks
Would make sick women have to face six,
Trained medical spies,
To root out their lies,
In case they just want a quick fix.

A small scale study into the efficacy of cryoablation, where the needle-tip of a probe is frozen to -100°C and used to destroy tissue, has proved phenomenally successful in eliminating cancerous lung tumours. A treatment rather than a cure, the future potential of the technique appears bright.
The results of a study on cryoablation were presented at the 38th Annual Scientific Meeting of the Society of Interventional Radiology in New Orleans. The treatment has passed the first round of trials known as ECLIPSE (Evaluating Cryoablation of Metastatic Lung/Pleura Tumors in Patents — Safety and Efficacy) with astonishing results.
The process was tested on 22 patients with a combined total of 36 tumors who were given 27 cryoablation treatments. At a three month follow up, all of the patients’ tumors remained dead. At six months, five of the 22 patients’ tumors were examined and found to still be dead. The research is unclear on the status of the remaining 17 patients.

Maybe it is just my mood every morning as I go into work, but all I see when I look at this sign is the grim reaper or the three horsemen of the apocalypse and NOT a gleaming skyline of high-rise working/living. (Especially since said high-rise is currently a gutted skeleton, surrounded by scaffolding.)
I’m gonna tell you a secret on here Wednesday morning. #NotComingOut

“Shift” is Irish slang for “make-out” or “bang” depending on which Irish person is answering.

Great hat, in fairness.
