On July 13, several notable moments in the history of News stand out. In 1787, The Congress of the Confederation enacts the Northwest Ordinance establishing governing rules for the Northwest Territory. It also establishes procedures for the admission of new states and limits the expansion of slavery. In 1890, John C. Frémont, American general and politician, 5th Territorial Governor of Arizona (born 1813) passed away. In 1934, Aleksei Yeliseyev, Russian engineer and astronaut was born. In 1956, The Dartmouth workshop is the first conference on artificial intelligence. In 1977, Somalia declares war on Ethiopia, starting the Ogaden War. In 1977, New York City: Amidst a period of financial and social turmoil experiences an electrical blackout lasting nearly 24 hours that leads to widespread fires and looting. In 1990, Lenin Peak disaster: a 6.4-magnitude earthquake in Afghanistan triggers an avalanche on Lenin Peak, killing 43 climbers in the deadliest mountaineering disaster in history. In 1995, Space Shuttle Discovery is launched on STS-70 to deploy the TDRS-7 satellite. In 2008, Battle of Wanat begins when Taliban and al-Qaeda guerrillas attack US Army and Afghan National Army troops in Afghanistan. The U.S. deaths were, at that time, the most in a single battle since the beginning of operations in 2001.

Together, these milestones provide historical context for today's news news and ongoing narratives.

Scientists discover how the brain rewires itself to truly multitask
Practice may do more than make perfect. Researchers found that extensive training physically reorganizes the brain, allowing learned tasks to bypass the prefrontal cortex and run through specialized circuits instead. By freeing the brain's thinking center, people became better at performing another task at the same time, challenging the long-held idea that humans only switch rapidly between tasks rather than truly multitask.
