...result of Eno’s overstuffed production coupled with the band’s own overindulgence in their ambient inclinations and goofy lyrical tendencies. The addition of “No Line on the Horizon” to the band’s impressive and tremendously varied catalog surely reinforces their willingness to take risks, but some of their choices elude rather than elucidate. U2 may move in mysterious ways, but they’ll need a return to basics if they hope to recapture their former mastery.—Staff writer Jessica R. Henderson can be reached...
...section deep within, a seahorse-shaped structure called the hippocampus, as particularly crucial to memory. Studies of patients with brain injury or disease have shown that the hippocampus is where new memories are formed and where recent ones are retrieved; like a librarian, it scans the brain's catalog of bygone information and brings appropriate material to the fore. (But a recent brain-scan study of 15 healthy adults at the University of California, San Diego, found that the hippocampus has less to do with memories from the distant past. It is vital to the recall of recent events, from...
...American College of Medical Genetics recommended uniform and broader screening for the entire catalog of conditions, including amino acid deficiencies, oxidative disorders and blood diseases such as sickle cell anemia. The March of Dimes and the American Academy of Pediatrics endorsed that recommendation, and lobbied states to legislate mandatory newborn screenings. That same year, a March of Dimes survey found that only 38% of babies were getting sufficiently screened, with at least 21 of the 29 available tests. "These are rare conditions, but they can be devastating and catastrophic if not detected," says Dr. Jennifer Howse, president of the March...
...best bet is January classes, though these offerings should not bear any resemblance to what’s currently in the course catalog. The shorter January should offer lessons in the general life skills that we bookworms have so often missed—a wood-shop class, for instance—or academic takes on our hobbies and amusements, like deciphering the true meaning of rap lyrics. But the most effective way for the College to remove all semblance of a Harvard J-term to actual school (and therefore drudgery) is to ask its students to serve as teachers...
...General Motors fights for survival, the catalog of its recent woes must include the name Fiat. Not only did a 2000 partnership between the U.S. and Italian carmakers sputter badly - as the two companies struggled to find consumer-friendly models and integrate their production facilities - but also GM was eventually forced into an unprecedented $2 billion "divorce" payout to avoid having to purchase the then debt-plagued Fiat...
