In 1944, Congress authorized construction of an interstate expressway system connecting major cities and industrial centers. No money was involved in the bill. The project never took off until the awarding of the first contract for I-70 in Missouri, in 1956. North Dakota was the first state to complete its Interstates. More information is available at http://www.tfhrc.gov/pubrds/summer96/p96su10.htm and http://eisenhower.archives.gov/dl/InterstateHighways/InterstateHighwaysdocuments.html .

Scientists identified a type of chimpanzee in West Africa as the source of HIV infection in humans. The virus most likely jumped to humans when humans hunted these chimpanzees for meat and came into contact with their infected blood. Over several years, the virus slowly spread across Africa and later into other parts of the world.

Hippocrates, an ancient Greek physician known as the "father of medicine," named the condition on the basis of the Greek word for CROOKED.

I could tell you what I've read about evolution, the big-bang, super-universes, quantum foam, and all that stuff. Eventually you'd ask a question I can't answer, then I'd have to go look it up. Even If I had the time for that shit, in the end you'd ask a question science hasn't answered yet. So let's save time and skip ahead to "I don't know."

Yes, the product is named after some guy who has been dead for 276 years: Sir Isaac Newton, considered by many to be the greatest scientific mind in human history. From the very beginning we wanted to develop a system that would offset the head loads that occured during rapid deceleration.

Randall cattle originated on the farm of Samuel J. Randall and his son Everett in Sunderland, Vermont.

A) The programme content was originally designed to address the problem of travel sickness. It has long been established that one of the primary emetic detectors in the process of Emesis (the physical act of being sick) is the vestibular system. The DAVAL programme addresses the vestibular system in the most logical fashion - incidentally a mode which has never been done before.

Contrary to popular belief, the name Black Sox was not given to the 1919 White Sox because of the 1919 World Series scandal. The name was given to them because they played in dirty uniforms because their owner Charles Comiskey used to charge the players .25 cents for cleaning their uniforms.
