...second half, the Crimson started opening up some more offensive chances. One reason for the renewed pressure was that Harvard was getting more space by drawing Black Bear defenders out wide...
...keep it up? As summer ends, the fast-moving "Sarko Show" has begun drawing criticism. Opponents complain that Sarkozy's sunny-day successes don't all bear up under scrutiny: was the Libyan triumph linked to troubling nuclear and military contracts? Does Sarkozy's penchant for economic interventionism, visible in Sept. 3's megamerger between utility giants Gaz de France and Suez, mock his free-market rhetoric? Time asked a group of French and international experts to evaluate the spectacular start to the Sarkozy era and how - or whether - he can meet that promise in the months and years...
...While almost every Chinese dynasty has produced glass work - usually vases or bowls - the creations of today's glass artists bear little relation to either the functional or the merely ornamental pieces of yore. "People often confuse glass with craft, but you just have to look at a work to realize the difference," says Vanessa Taub, a Hong Kong-based art dealer and proponent of Chinese glass sculpture.

...large new study by researchers with Kaiser Permanente's Center for Health Research (CHR). The study, published in the September issue of Diabetes Care, found that mothers with untreated gestational diabetes - a form of the disease that occurs only during pregnancy - were nearly twice as likely to bear overweight children, compared with healthy moms. And the data showed that some mothers with "normal" blood-sugar readings were at risk as well: pregnant women with blood-sugar levels at the highest end of the currently accepted normal range were at least 22% more likely to have heavy children than women...
Women whose blood-sugar readings were at the upper end of normal (122 mg/dl to 140 mg/dl) were still 22% more likely to have overweight children than women at the low end of normal (with blood-sugar levels between 43 mg/dl and 94 mg/dl), and 28% more likely to bear children who become obese. "Even in what's considered normal, in the highest quartile there was an elevation in risk," says Dr. Teresa Hillier, a CHR endocrinologist and senior investigator and lead author of the study. "You could argue, should we consider lowering the criteria? One forty [mg/dl...
