Diamond lovers may benefit from liquidation sales at Alpha Omega Jewelers, but for some Cambridge natives, the prospect of cheap jewelry doesn’t dispel concerns about the effects that the store’s bankruptcy—and likely disappearance—will have on the character of Harvard Square...
...likelihood, however, when cloned food products are finally introduced in the U.S., they will make up a minuscule part of the overall meat market. Breeding clones isn't easy or cheap - a cloned cow costs between $10,000 and $20,000 to breed, compared to as little as $50 for a standard cow. And cloned-animal products will predominantly come from the offspring of clones, which will be sexually reproduced, not from the clones themselves.

Bill's shivving Barack in South Carolina looked bad, but wasn't it a clever play to the cheap seats that would attract more votes than it would lose? Hillary's tears in New Hampshire rusted the iron lady a little, but wasn't that just a brilliantly tactical softening of her image at the precise moment it was called for? Maybe. But maybe she just got tired and cried...
