...remaining buildings--with the exception of the Advocate House--contain FAS departments that will move to new locations within the next two years...
...burst into flame. Witnesses said the fire started shortly before noon, possibly caused by the explosion of a gas cylinder used for cooking. High winds coupled with 104-degree heat caused the blaze to spread quickly among some 70,000 wood-and-canvas tents. Firefighters needed several hours to contain the blaze. As often happens in catastrophic fires, the majority of the casualties were victims of the side-effects of the blaze, in this case the stampede that broke out as the flames spread. The fire broke out as the more than two million Muslims making the pilgrimage entered...

Flapping her hands and giggling nervously, she is hardly able to contain her energy--and, indeed, seems ready to fly apart as an old transgression (she once forged a signature to acquire a loan) threatens to unravel her pat little marriage. Yet a freezing calm overtakes her in the final confrontation with her husband Torvald, in which McTeer (helped by Frank McGuinness...
...does it? What the SUNY team found was that some breast-cancer cells contain elevated levels of enzymes known as mitogen-activated protein kinases. The problem is, MAP kinases are elevated in many dividing cells. Finding high levels in breast tumors, as Princeton University molecular biologist Arnold Levine dryly observes, hardly comes as a surprise...
Even if that's true, say other scientists, MAP kinases are just one component of an elaborate biochemical network that controls the process of cell division. Though breast tumors may contain high levels of the enzymes, that may well be an effect of malignancy rather than the cause. This does not mean that MAP kinases are not important contributors to tumor growth. But, cautions Susan Braun, president of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation in Texas, "people should understand that this is a piece of the puzzle, not the single answer." Indeed, there will probably never be a single...
