...already show signs of noise-induced hearing loss. The inner ear contains small hair cells that vibrate against an inner membrane, generating an electrical signal that the brain interprets as sound, Levey explains. When bombarded by loud volumes over an extended period of time, these hair cells die off. The result is hearing loss, and potentially an array of other nasty consequences. A study conducted by Levey and Dr. Brian Fligor of Harvard University, which is nearing completion, suggests teens with hearing loss are at risk for reduced vocabularies, reading and math skills...
Check out the living ball of adorable fur, rollicking in grass that might as well wilt and die of shame from being in the same picture of Max and his lustrous black coat. Look at how he daintily lifts a paw, as his dark eyes sit like deep wells in the face of a poet. What a creature...
...beat the spread. The new movie's intriguing premise - of a world in which people stay at home while their lifelike robots do all the work - virtually told audiences that this was one to catch, if at all, on DVD. And Willis, except for his fourth dip into the Die Hard franchise two years ago, hasn't come near blockbuster status in the past decade.

Both Chancellor Angela Merkel's center-right Christian Democrats and the center-left Social Democrats of Frank-Walter Steinmeier remain committed to Berlin's 4,000-strong troop deployment in Afghanistan as part of the multinational force there. But Die Linke, a smaller, left-wing party, has won support by campaigning on an immediate withdrawal, and as public support for the Afghanistan mission falls even the mainstream leaders are having to take notice. Steinmeier has recently hinted that he would pull troops out by 2013, though in a pre-election...
That's undoubtedly true. The SPD was squeezed not by its opponents on the right but by the hard-left party Die Linke, formed from the remnants of the former East Germany's Communist Party and SPD dissidents. And Merkel's win, though slim, secures her against critics in her party, who might have sought to topple her. Christian Bachmann, 37, a hospital doctor and Christian Democrat supporter, proclaims himself "happy with the result." He adds, "To be quite honest, I don't mind the FDP ending up so strong. This may give the CDU/CSU room for a little...
