...obstacle to a decision when it reached an agreement with the United Auto Workers on an innovative labor contract for the Saturn plant's employees. As a result, GM will announce this week the location of what will be, in the words of one company official, "the largest manufacturing complex that anyone has ever built anywhere at one time...
...reader with little time or patience, USA Today's brevity is its major asset. Even for those who cluck over the superficial handling of complex issues, the paper has several strengths. USA Today is good at spotting a trend early, whether it is the growing popularity of Tofutti or the rising demand for automobile sunroofs. Its emphasis on American popular culture leads its reporters to explore in telling detail, day after day, such events as Coca-Cola's switches in formula and just about anything to do with Hollywood. The writing style, once derided as pale and plodding, has grown...
...everyone exposed to the AIDS virus has contracted the disease. Some have developed a flu-like condition known as ARC (AIDS-related complex), which may or may not progress to the more lethal syndrome. Others have so far displayed no symptoms at all but remain capable of spreading the contagion...
Ruth has astounded the faculty at St. Hugh's with the range of her intellect and the ease with which she masters subjects. In one seminar, while other students were struggling with a complex theorem that an academician was elaborating on a blackboard, Lawrence pointed out an error that the lecturer had made. She raced through Oxford's three-year course in two years. Her test papers were spun out with little apparent need to pause over the most puzzling problems. "I think while I write," she explains with a shrug. Mathematics appeals to her spirit of discovery, she says...
...found in every cell of their bodies are alien genes, injected by biologists. The study of these mutants and the effects of the interloping genes may help provide answers to such fundamental questions as what switches DNA on and off, and how a single cell blossoms into a complex organism like a mouse or a human being. Someday the new technology could yield treatments for diseases such as cancer, thalassemia and sickle-cell anemia. In short, an increasing number of biologists and geneticists agree, the field of transgenic mice is hot. Says Rudolf Jaenisch, a molecular biologist with the Whitehead...
