...access music, however. The Sync is so-named because you load music from your PC. Any MP3 or unprotected WMA files will transfer, but so will subscription downloads from Rhapsody, Napster, AOL and MTV Urge.

Consuming, with similar regularity, chicken cooked with the skin taken off makes one 52 percent more likely to develop the disease, according to the study, published in this month’s issue...
