...protest in a subway station the year prior. Continuing to scan the walls, I’d catch some of the building’s finer graffiti: cartoon people riding along on conveyor belts on their way to prison, for example. All around me would be smoke and chatter, as scarf-clad brunettes sipped the famous corn syrup-free European Coke, cafés con leche, or the beer on tap. After doing my best to participate nonchalantly in one of these activities for a while, I’d slink off to class, a few minutes too early.If...
...Nationwide team's findings sparked a frenzy on the Internet, with stories cropping up one after the other and chatter lighting up on blogs. But as the news spread, globally even, some mental-health professionals grew wary. Without discounting the severity of the problem - particularly among adolescent girls - some experts felt the headlines declaring self-embedding a new "disorder" went too far. Characterizing it as a disorder rather than a symptom of one may miss the mark, says Dr. John Campo, chief of child and adolescent psychiatry at Nationwide Children's and one of the specialists consulted by Shiels.

Nature may have forgotten about the extinct woolly mammoth, but science has been buzzing about it lately, ever since researchers announced that they had sequenced 80% of its genome. That gave rise to chatter about whether a cloned mammoth could ever be born. Serious cloning science began in 1952, when researchers first reported transferring a tadpole nucleus into an ovum and producing identical tadpole copies. In 1995, biologist Craig Venter sequenced the genome of the Haemophilus influenzae bacterium, the first living organism whose genes were decoded. In 1997, cloning made stop-the-presses headlines when embryologist Ian Wilmut announced that...
