Gallo executives say their imported wines, despite the tinkering, reflect the traditions of their local partners. "We need to develop wines of all styles from all areas, reflective of all terroirs if we are to give consumers what they want," says David Lane, senior marketing director. "They want wines that taste unique to the area." In other words, American consumers aren't looking for one mass-produced Wonder-bread wine, so why try to make, say, a French Chardonnay that tastes like one from California? That would defeat Gallo's whole purpose in pursuing international wines...
...funding is provided for adult stem cell research—research on cells that, according to the National Institute of Health, have not yet adopted specialized roles within the body. In living humans, adult stem cells maintain and repair whatever tissue they are found in. While adult stem cells develop depending on the type of tissue they are found in, some scientists believe these adult stem cells can become cells of a different tissue. However, experiments aimed at this end have met with mixed success...
Embryonic stem cells, which come from embryos typically four to five days old, differ from adult stem cells in that scientists can reliably develop embryonic stem cells into different cell types. Federal funding, however, is only granted for research done on the existing embryonic stem cell lines President Bush identified in 2001, cell lines which are increasingly obsolete for cutting edge research. Current Massachusetts law is ambiguous on the topic of embryonic stem cell research. This is why the new Massachusetts law is so important. It will mean that the state government will actively work to encourage and foster embryonic...
...question for Harvard is, if current Harvard scientists work in the North Yard and if there [is] going to be science here, how do you get people back and forth?” said David McGregor, the managing partner of Cooper, Robertson & Partners, the firm hired to develop an institutional master plan for the new campus. McGregor added that the Longwood Medical Area was a third area that would need to be integrated...
What the Left should launch is a national initiative, where progressive organizations, left-wing intellectuals, and political leaders and parties at all levels enter into a sustained effort to engage religious institutions and leaders with similar political views and develop them where they do not exist. More effort needs to be made to catapult fresh, charismatic, religious faces with engaging and challenging ideas to the forefront of this side of the political spectrum. This will ease the paralyzing discomfort the average moderate American feels when presented with the television-skewed political debate over most politics being conducted by a person...
