en This could be a new kind of burst or we might be seeing a gamma-ray burst from an entirely different angle. This off-angle glance -- a profile view, perhaps -- has given us an entirely new approach to studying star explosions. Had this burst been farther away, we would have missed it.

en The report confirms that Minnesota's approach to liquor regulation is outdated and unfairly benefits liquor wholesalers and retailers at the expense of consumers.

The lyre in my hand has never swept, The song I cannot offer: My humbler service pray accept -- I'll help to kill the scoffer.
