There are more drinkers in the city (87%), where bars stud every downtown block, than in the country (43%); more of them along the Northeastern seaboard (83%), which takes a certain pride in sophistication, than in any other section of the country. The South has the oddest regional attitude about drinking. Kentucky is practically the capital of the bourbon country, but it also forbids the sale of alcohol in four counties out of five. Widely blanketed by local prohibition laws, the South teems not only with "brown bag" joints, to which the patron brings his own bottle in a paper...
Closed in Self-Defense. Newest element in San Francisco's revitalized waterfront is The Cannery, another lively block of shops and restaurants across the street from Fisherman's Wharf. "I had a sense of smell," explains Leonard V. Martin, 47, a wealthy Manchurian-born lawyer, who bought the abandoned Del Monte peach cannery in 1963.

Stanford's 1959 Nobel Laureate Arthur Kornberg and Biochemist Mehran Goulian began their historic synthesis with four off-the-shelf inert chemical compounds called nucleotides-the basic building block of the DNA molecule, which controls the hereditary characteristics of every living thing. To these they added one enzyme, DNA polymerase, that is known to promote the assembly of nucleotides into the typical helix-shaped strand that characterizes the DNA molecule, and another enzyme that closes the strand into a ring...
