...focus of so much research and drug development. "We have a ton of drugs that work for breast cancer - eight or nine - more than for any other cancer," says Dr. Christy Russell, co-director of the Norris Breast Center at the University of Southern California. The approach for someone with metastatic disease like Elizabeth Edwards, says Russell, is to use a drug until it stops working - as it almost inevitably will - and then switch to something else, possibly buying years of relatively good health...

...Urbino are iconic Renaissance images, especially the Duke, Federico III, one of the Renaissance's most accomplished condottieri, or mercenary barons. Painting with brilliant color and unfiltered realism, Piero doesn't blink at the prominence of Federico's nose and chin, but he never crosses into caricature. His approach gives Piero's portraiture a strikingly modern aspect. "It is almost hyper-realism," Bertelli says. "The faces are gigantic compared to the background landscape, making them monumental."

...Bell, who helped create Apple's legendary Titanium PowerBook, says that's the wrong approach. On-the-go users want to check their calendar on a train or get Web access while standing in line for a movie, he says. "Putting a mobile device like this in a clamshell feels like old-think. It's a holdover of how people viewed the last generation of computing. We're creating the next generation of computing." Did he just call Paul Allen out of touch...

...aims for the trip, the second in as many months, are modest: "Right now," Rice said, "my primary goal is to establish a mechanism, a common approach, that I can use with them in parallel so that we are addressing the same issues. That's really the key right now." That is Rice's diplo-speak for her hopes of guiding Israeli and Palestinian leaders along parallel tracks to see a common "political horizon," to use one of her favorite phrases. The problem is that direct talks cannot happen so long as Israel refuses to deal with the Hamas faction...
