Anatomical terminology

The urethral crest is an anatomical feature present in the urinary system of both males and females.

In males, the urethral crest is known as the crista urethralis masculinae, or the crista phallica, and is a longitudinal fold on the posterior wall of the urethra extending from the uvula of the bladder through the prostatic urethra.[1] It is from 15 to 17 mm. in length, and about 3 mm. in height, and contains muscular and erectile tissue. When distended, it may serve to prevent the passage of the semen backward into the bladder.[2]

In females, it is known as the crista urethralis femininae, and is a conspicuous longitudinal fold of mucosa on the posterior wall of the urethra.[3]

Brouwer fixed-point theorem

Theorem in topology Brouwer's fixed-point theorem is a fixed-point theorem in topology, named after L. E. J. (Bertus) Brouwer. It states that for any continuous function f {\displaystyle f} mapping a nonempty compact convex set to itself, there is a point x 0 {\displaystyle x_{0}} such that f ( x 0 ) = x 0 {\displaystyle f(x_{0})=x_{0}} . The simplest forms of Brouwer's theorem are for continuous functions f {\displaystyle f} from a closed interval I {\displaystyle I} in the real numbers to i...

Bastonatura di Charles Sumner

Il rappresentante Preston Brooks (a sinistra) picchiò brutalmente il senatore Charles Sumner dopo che questi si era espresso in un suo discorso infuocato attaccando lo schiavismo e i suoi praticanti. «Alto, di aspetto dignitoso e severo, il senatore Sumner pareva incarnare quanto era rimasto dei Puritani della Nuova Inghilterra. Moralista intollerante e di rigida onestà, ostentava un'implacabile intransigenza. Gli si rimproverava una totale assenza di umorismo. Butler era l'incarnazione di...
