primordial gas from the @placeholder is not spread uniformly throughout | By Ellie Zolfagharifard Astronomers have been able to capture unprecedented images of a mysterious gas that connects galaxies throughout the universe. Known as the intergalactic medium (IGM), this enigmatic substance has, up until now, merely been a matter of theoretical speculation. But now Caltech scientists have used the Cosmic Web Imager (CWI) to obtain their first three-dimensional images of the IGM. Astronomers have been able to capture unprecedented images of a mysterious gas that connects galaxies throughout the universe.

Eric Holder likely will face a grueling round of questions from Republicans during his confirmation hearings.

@placeholder town is straining under the pressure of a massive population influx. | (CNN) -- Pakistan's much-awaited military offensive in North Waziristan was launched more than a week ago, and followed an attack on Karachi airport that left at least 36 people dead. Due to the strategic calculations of the Pakistani state, North Waziristan has steadily fallen into the hands of motley militant networks, and has become a mountainous zone for the Pakistani Taliban to recruit, regroup and launch attacks against the country. The Pakistani Army conducted a similar operation in the Swat Valley in 2009, not too far from the tribal areas, that has been a relative success in reclaiming territory. It is unclear which direction the latest operation will go. But a major humanitarian crisis is brewing in the wake of the new offensive.

Trying it out: @placeholder shakes hands with a reporter after receiving the new limb on Friday. | Graduate students have used a 3D printer to make a limb for a six-year-old boy born without a right arm. Alex Pring, from Groveland, Florida, was given the new prosthetic arm on Friday by a team headed by University of Central Florida student Albert Manero. The limb took seven weeks for the team to build in their free time and cost $350 - compared to the $40,000 that doctors told Alex's family a prosthetic arm would cost. After the little boy put on the arm, which senses muscles in his shoulder and opens and closes, he grinned and gave his mother a hug - the first time he had been able to put two arms around her.

"This is the hardest thing I've ever had to do," he told a crowd of sign-wielding supporters outside his Chicago home Wednesday before reporting to prison. "But this is the law and we follow the law." He was convicted of corruption in June 2011 after a jury returned 17 guilty verdicts against him. Among other allegations, he was accused of trying to profit as he considered whom to appoint to take Barack Obama's open Senate seat.

The Welsh writer's clifftop home at New Quay, overlooking Cardigan Bay, was once stormed by a spurned husband who accused Thomas of sleeping with his wife and fired his machine gun through the window. William Killick, who had just come home from the Second World War, also let off a grenade at the poet's bungalow in the 1945 attack which was later featured in the 2008 Hollywood film The Edge Of Love.

But audiences who stayed tuned until the end of the broadcast were treated to a touching bookend: @placeholder, the night's top winner, invited Swift onstage and gave the teen singer her moment in the spotlight. | NEW YORK (CNN) -- Even by the standards of the anything-goes MTV Video Music Awards, Kanye West's hijacking of country-pop sweetheart Taylor Swift's speech at the Sunday night ceremony was particularly brutal. Kanye West takes the microphone from Taylor Swift at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday. The pre-show buzz had focused on the highly anticipated tribute to the late Michael Jackson, but West's disruption stole the spotlight. A giddy Swift was in the midst of her acceptance speech for Best Female Video when the often-mercurial West rushed onstage, grabbed her microphone and let loose an outburst on behalf of singer Beyonce Knowles, who had lost out in that category.

He was twice divorced, grappled with the counterculture, watched the @placeholder generation become forgotten and then deified. | (CNN) -- George S. Patton did not like Willie and Joe. Bill Mauldin, on top of a jeep (his favored mode of transportation), was a hero to soldiers for his cartoons. The famed general was a spit-and-polish man, and "Willie & Joe" -- Bill Mauldin's popular cartoon dogfaces, who appeared every day in the military newspaper Stars and Stripes -- were anything but: unshaven, rumpled, their boots caked with mud, eyes weary from days on the line. The general made it known that he was not amused, and eventually Mauldin -- a 23-year-old sergeant who'd entered the Army to escape an aimless life in the rugged Southwest -- was summoned to Patton's impressive headquarters, a requisitioned palace in Luxembourg.

@placeholder can appeal the verdict or the sentence, potentially to the supreme court and even eventually to South Africa's constitutional court. | (CNN) -- Long before he was accused of murder, Oscar Pistorius was toasted the world over for his triumph over a disability. His lightning running speed -- which took him all the way to the Olympics despite using carbon legs -- attracted sponsorships worth millions. But as his murder trial dragged on, his popularity plummeted and sponsors abruptly dropped him. Now that a judge has found him guilty of negligent homicide, what's next for the man known as the Blade Runner? When will he be sentenced? Judge Thokozile Masipa granted him bail Friday, and set sentencing for October 13. Sentencing is not a one-day affair in South Africa. The prosecution wanted him held without bail, saying he sold his immovable assets, and that makes him a flight risk. The judge disagreed.

The company plans to try to move the ship to the port of Langnas on Saturday evening. The ship is not letting in water, but a small leak has been observed on a ballast tank that normally holds water, it said.

Because of its success, the movement is being asked to put forth a list of its demands. So far, members have said no. And well they should. The refusal of Occupy Wall Street to tie itself down with an agenda that can be debated piecemeal is one of its great strengths. The decision allows Occupy Wall Street to remain a cri de coeur for all who believe they have lost ground over the last decade. In choosing this strategy, Occupy Wall Street is doing more than defying expectations. It is linking itself with the best of 1960s America.
