...because it happened in a region nearby and it's a clear message from the extremists to leave them alone, or else KFOR could be next. I don't know what KFOR is going to do with this message, but I'll be very surprised if they try to clamp down on the extremists. Because we're not dealing here with a bunch of angry farmers. We're dealing with a serious organization that has the training and logistical capability to mount sophisticated attacks. And there is little reason for optimism that KFOR has either the intelligence capability...
...they moved quickly to develop a compound that inhibits ACE-2. Scientists combed through Millennium's library of 700 different classes of compounds for molecules whose chemistry made them candidates to clamp down on ACE-2 activity. Then, with the help of protein-modeling software (see Bioinformatics box), they manipulated the chemical structure of their new inhibitor to give it optimal binding affinity with the ACE-2 receptor. In about two years, Millennium had created a new blood-pressure-drug candidate that is now being tested in animals...
...VISORPHONE Clamp the VisorPhone on your Handspring Visor (a cheaper clone of the Palm), tap a number in your address book and--bang!--look who's talking. This will be remembered as the year the cell phone and the PDA finally married...

Some might view the MIT settlement as an indication that colleges and universities will clamp down on student social life in an unnecessarily harsh fashion. On the contrary, the settlement is merely a reaffirmation of a basic principle that institutions of higher learning are responsible for student safety. To this end, we hope that recent settlement will force other institutions to critically examine their own policies and attitudes, so that a similar tragedy will never happen again...
