LESSON "If we approach others with an aim to change them rather than an aim to know them, to love them and to exemplify a better life for them, we make ourselves ugly with arrogance in the process." -christianitytoday.com...
Other labs are taking a different approach, focusing on enhancing the supply of oxygen that fuels everything the muscle cells do. And here too, athletes are eagerly dogging the footsteps of medical researchers, specifically those working to treat chronic anemias, conditions in which red blood cells dwindle to dangerously low levels, starving tissues of oxygen. In athletes, prolonged exertion leads to oxygen depletion in the muscles, which causes fatigue...
...delivering EPO, for example, some researchers are hoping to harness modified versions of hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying workhorse in red blood cells. Artificial blood has long been a dream of doctors who face perpetual blood shortages, and in recent years that dream is closer to becoming reality. One promising approach involves extracting hemoglobin from living cells and using it alone as an oxygen transport system. Unfortunately, naked hemoglobin is quickly broken down in the body. Housing the hemoglobin in an artificial cell, or modifying the hemoglobin so it remains stable, could solve this problem. Two such artificial hemoglobin-based blood...
...surprisingly velvety textures and piquant tastes out of soups like black bean or fish sancocho. Dishes include duck escabeche with white-chocolate carrot mousse, right, and grouper braised with aji, a sweet Venezuelan pepper. Desserts are made from Venezuelan chocolate or fresh fruits, left. The result: a refreshingly classical approach to the often hypertrendy world of pan-Latin dining. --By Tim Padgett
...film's scientific approach to life's mysteries may rile some religious conservatives. One onscreen participant, Columbia philosopher David Albert, has already complained that his remarks, which appear to support the film's spiritual premise, were taken out of context. (The filmmakers deny it.) Yet for its fans, the film is striking a chord. "There are a lot of people in metaphysical closets out there," says Arntz...
