...course, frugal readers could go back to the HuffPo or Google and re-enter the site through an alternate route. There will no doubt be workarounds, but the Times seems to suspect that many people won't bother. They'll just subscribe, because after all, it's the freakin' New York Times and people surely want to pay for that kind of quality journalism...

Until now, that is: enter the Nook, from Barnes & Noble. Unlike the Sony Reader, the Nook arrives with a large bookselling infrastructure already in place around it. Like the Kindle, it costs...
...garnered nearly as much attention as the public option or sweeping new insurance regulations, it's critical to the Democrats' reform strategy.

Published in 2006 in the European Journal of Human Genetics, it noted that of the 14,024 fathers in the study, 166 said they had started smoking before age 11 - just as their bodies were preparing to enter puberty. Boys are genetically isolated before puberty because they cannot form sperm. (Girls, by contrast, have their eggs from birth.) That makes the period around puberty fertile ground for epigenetic changes: If the environment is going to imprint epigenetic marks on genes in the Y chromosome, what better time...
