Chung's lawyer, Brian Sun, told TIME that Chung had approached Williams' aide Evan Ryan the day before, hoping to arrange a cozy lunch in the White House mess for some Chinese businessmen and a later meeting with the First Lady. Somehow the subject turned to Democratic Party needs. Ryan remarked that the President's party had to cover the costs of political events held by the First Lady at the White House, although Ryan "does not recall" that conversation. So Chung came back the next day and handed Williams that "unsolicited" $50,000 check...

Neurobiologist Evan Balaban of the Neurosciences Institute in San Diego undertook the experimental tour de force to explore one of developmental biology's nagging questions: Where in the brain are the cells controlling specific behaviors? Using delicate surgical techniques pioneered by Nicole le Douarin in Paris, with whom he worked for a year, Balaban cut tiny windows in the shells of fertilized chicken and quail eggs that had incubated for a couple of days. Guided by special stains developed by the French researcher, he probed the embryos' minuscule, 1-mm- to 2-mm-long neural tubes (out of which...

...Once hatched, the chicken's movement's resembled those of a quail. "It turns out there's a part of the quail's brain that I can transfer into a chicken that makes the chicken move its head like a quail when it's crowing like a chicken," said Evan Balaban, the experimental neurobiologist who performed the study. In another experiment, Balaban made a chicken sing like a quail by implanting into a fetal chicken brain cells which control quail sound patterns. The altered birds, Balaban said, remained chicken-like in most respects and displayed behavioral characteristics which were "well...
