ARTICLES RELATED TO 1951 - Deaths | | | |  1951 - Deaths: Parapsychology and personal survival after deathSupernatural
phenomena are still being dismissed by the academic community. Influenced by
recent breaktroughs leading to an explanation of some mysteries, they have come
to the conclusion that science will explain all eventually.
Scientists,
who would not dare to trespass in fields outside their speciality for fear of
being torn apart by fellow academics, feel free to make all sorts of
pronouncements in the media on subjects in the domain of parapsychological
research, of which they have no knowledge whatsoever. Like in all other areas
of science, parapsychology has narrowed down its research to specialist
sectors, hardly anyone daring to voice an opinion on general issues.

Che Guevara - Hero.
While pictures of Guevara's dead body were being circulated and the circumstances of his death debated, his legend began to spread.

He is singled out from other revolutionaries by many yo ...

Eventually he was selected for Ormskirk, which was then held by Stephen King-Hall. Wilson accidentally agreed to be adopted as the candidate immediately rather than delay until the election was called, and was therefore compelled to resign from the Civil Service. He used the time in between to write A New Deal for Coal which used his wartime experience to argue for nationalisation of the ...
