...DECORATING FOR THE DOGS? When designer Kim Bull couldn't find suitable sleeping quarters for her mutt, she started Wowbow, a line of sleek acrylic beds, below. They're part of a new crop of fancy pet furniture that includes English-style beds from Cath Kidston (cathkidston.com) and hip variations like Fatboy's camouflage-print beanbag lounges (muttropolis.com...

"We still don't know what to do with patients who have a number of moderate narrowings but no ischemia," says Dr. Roger Blumenthal of Johns Hopkins.

Krucoff and Crater have already finished the first part of Mantra, a pilot study to determine, among other things, whether prayer by strangers might influence the medical outcomes of 30 patients in Krucoff's cath lab at the Durham VA hospital. The project, whose symbol is a valentine-style heart with an angel hovering near one lobe, is too small to be statistically meaningful, but the results--the outcomes of those prayed over were 50% to 100% better than those of a control group--were...
