...probably difficult for people to minimize the effects of their own biological rhythms. For example, you cannot avoid your morning risk by simply waking up later. Some researchers have tried an experimental model, in which people were instructed to stay in bed for four hours after they woke up before rising. But the same pattern simply occurred four hours after waking, because the risk is linked to our activities. We can't be afraid of the catecholamines and the peak in blood pressure in the morning. It's part of our physiology. And for healthy people...
...Italian Republic. But his latest act of national scorn has brought down the fury of Berlusconi's other key ally, lower-house president Gianfranco Fini, whose post-Fascist past makes him the leader of the most explicitly patriotic faction in the three-month-old government. "A Cabinet minister cannot offend national sentiment," Fini proclaimed on Monday, demanding that Bossi "clarify" his thoughts. Bossi bit back quickly, saying that Fini would have been better off staying quiet. Senate president Renato Schifani quickly sought to silence the spat with a call to "lower the volume and work for the good...
...would be responsible for a bloodbath. "My answer was: Today [the people of Darfur] are being killed. Today they are being destroyed and have no hope," Moreno-Ocampo told me a few days before he announced his indictment. "Maybe you can be part of the cover-up.

...father and watching him go out of his way to clear the waters of debris left by fellow fishermen. Man has used his planet as a giant dump, and even now as other creatures are choking on refuse, man chooses to fill the world with more perils. If we cannot stop ourselves from throwing a beer can overboard, how can we effectively manage nuclear weapons, atomic energy and gene splitting. My hope is that we can; my fear is that we cannot. James R. Vernon Fort Worth The picture of the herring gull sitting proudly but snarled by the plastic...
...stated that it seeks a wage settlement ''competitive'' with the rest of the industry, which has gone through a massive economic shake-out. Union Negotiator James McGeehan, who is seeking wage increases of about 4% and lifelong job security, replies, ''We also need a competitive agreement. Our members cannot take their jobs and run.'' Too many, however, have had little choice. In 1983, on the eve of the last negotiations at U.S. Steel, there were more than 1 million American steelworkers. Today there are fewer than 700,000, and employment is projected to fall about 15% further...
