DeKosky, who was at the University of Pittsburgh between 2000 and 2008, when the trial was conducted, decided to address the uncertainties by designing a randomized, controlled, double-blinded trial - the most rigorous study of gingko biloba to date. The end result is scientific confidence that the findings are both reliable and reproducible: At the end of six years of follow up, 523 of the more than 3,000 healthy subjects had developed dementia - 277 of those patients had taken gingko, and 246 had received the placebo. Of these cases, 92% were likely in the first phase of Alzheimer...
Alhough the EDD does not specifically address the issue, it seems likely that Scan and Deliver will also eliminate queues of students waiting for someone to finish using a book. As that student will have the scan of his part of the book, presumably as many students as wish to use the book will be able to obtain their own scans as well. Some fragile books or books so old that they might be damaged by the uploading process will not be available, but these books would not be easily available under the old system either. Those books that face...
...night before his death, Martin Luther King Jr. mesmerized a Memphis, Tenn., congregation with an address in which he said, "I may not get there with you, but I want you to know tonight that we as a people will get to the promised land" [Nov. 17].

...some teachers argue tenure has become a scapegoat for a whole basket of educational and financial ills responsible for the dismal test scores and disappointing graduation rates in U.S. schools. Abolishing tenure doesn't address problems of underfunding, overcrowding or improving students' home environments. And despite more than a century of social progress, the need to protect teachers from the whims (or the tyranny) of the community remains as important as ever - especially in science classrooms where the battle over evolutionary biology and creationism rages...
...scene was surreal on Saturday evening, when supporters of the triad of challengers - Paris mayor Bertrand Delanoë, 35-hour work-week architect Martine Aubry, and youthful left-winger Benoît Hamon - waged vocal battle with Royal's backers during her address, which was characteristically thin on concrete policies. Lusty waves of booing as Royal spoke were followed by standing ovations from her supporters; jeers unleashed by her calls for a coalition with centrists were quickly challenged by Royal supporters chanting...
