Denis Leary is not a guy you associate with putting out fires. He lights them--the small, contained blazes at the end of the cigarettes he chain-smoked through his angry, comic diatribes, like the one-man show No Cure for Cancer. Yet here he is, backstage at the set of his new TV series, in a New York City fire-department (F.D.N.Y.) uniform, picking at a plate of chicken with rice and beans, talking earnestly about his cousin Jeremiah Lucey, a real-life fireman in Worcester, Mass...
Unfortunately, there's no cure for celiac disease, which seems to be caused by a genetic defect. But there is a remedy that's 100% effective: stay away from gluten. That isn't as easy as it sounds.

Bush is placating the same religious faction by limiting stem-cell research, again thwarting promising medical study to secure supporters' votes. Janet Brazill Colorado Springs, Colorado, U.S. Klein stated that "Reagan was a champion of the religious...
...China, where supplies of the traditional cure for erectile dysfunction-tiger penis-have shriveled, men in search of an extra boost have been snapping up doses of knockoff Viagra. Although they're illegal, the fakes are so widespread that American pharmaceutical giant Pfizer says it's having a difficult time selling the real thing. Last week Pfizer's job grew even tougher. China's State Intellectual Property Office (SIPO) overturned the company's patent rights to Viagra, potentially opening the Chinese market to a flood of cheap, locally made generic rivals...
