Harvard (5-11, 2-1 Ivy) trailed 11-4 early on, but rebounded on the strength of its defense, which held the Danes to a season-low point total at the half and forced 13 turnovers en route to a 24-17 Crimson lead...
...least that's the way it's supposed to work. But Cabinets aren't confirmed en masse, and Washington has been reshaped by the growth of single-issue constituencies over the past many years. This all but guarantees that Cabinet confirmation hearings become policy shootouts. If one of the more vulnerable targets gets in real trouble and Bush has to ride to the rescue, he may have to spend more political capital defending his picks than he has got by making such wide use of the G.O.P. bench. Worst of all, one of these picks may be a constant draw...
...probe cellular gene activity en masse, scientists first isolate the molecules that translate genes into proteins. They then copy these molecules into their corresponding DNA sequences, tag those sequences with fluorescent markers and pour the tagged sequences over the microarray. Active genes in this biochemical stew stick like Velcro to their single-stranded partners on the chip, creating patterns of fluorescent dots that reveal which genes are turned on. "This technology has fundamentally altered how we explore biology," says Dr. Olli Kallioniemi of the NIH, who studies gene expression in cancers...
...paraphrase the Supremes, where does the love go? After tabloidy squabbles, Spice Girls went from a quintet to a quartet and lost their audience; En Vogue shrank from a quartet to a trio and went out of style. It's tough for any group of divas to stay on top--they're often in 3-in. heels, after all--and just a few months ago, Destiny's Child, an R.-and-B. quartet that's now a trio, seemed to be tottering. But late last year, its single, Independent Women Part I, went to No. 1. And last week...
...most powerful, best-equipped armed forces in the world and the capacity to destroy the entire Korean peninsula while the first North Korean missile would still be en route to the American continent. Presently, there is no way to intercept such a missile in flight before hitting the U.S., but I am pretty confident that North Korea's leader would not want to see South Korea become an island before his own missile ever reaches its target. In this regard, I feel pretty safe...
