Left Hand Path (album)
''Left Hand Path'' is the debut studio album by Swedish death metal band Entombed, released on 4 June 1990 by Earache Records. It is now considered a landmark in the death metal genre, and is noted for having put Swedish death metal "on the map." Background The album was recorded in less than a week in late 1989 at Sunlight Studio in Stockholm, Sweden. The tracks "Left Hand Path", "Drowned" and "Bitter Loss" were written days before the band entered the studio, and Entombed guitarist Uffe Cederlund retroactively laments the tracks as sounding unfinished and "really sloppy". Entombed vocalist Lars-Göran Petrov recalls that some lyrics were changed in the studio, and that while tracking vocal takes, guitarist Nicke Andersson would stand behind him with a lyric sheet and point at which lines to sing. Uffe's guitar tracks were panned to the left and the right, while Hellid's guitar tracks were panned to the middle. The band did not have a permanent bassist at the time of the ...

De Humani Corporis Fabrica
''De Humani Corporis Fabrica Libri Septem'' (Latin, "On the Fabric of the Human Body in Seven Books") is a set of books on human anatomy written by Andreas Vesalius (1514–1564) and published in 1543. It was a major advance in the history of anatomy over the long-dominant work of Galen, and presented itself as such. The collection of books is based on his Paduan lectures, during which he deviated from common practice by dissecting a corpse to illustrate what he was discussing. Dissections had previously been performed by a barber surgeon under the direction of a doctor of medicine, who was not expected to perform manual labour. Vesalius's '' magnum opus'' presents a careful examination of the organs and the complete structure of the human body. This would not have been possible without the many advances that had been made during the Renaissance, including artistic developments in literal visual representation and the technical development of printing with refined woodcuts.
