...center of I.O.A.'s promotion, calls them "theme rides without the theme." True enough for some rides. The Incredible Hulk Coaster is similar to slinky steel screamers in nearby Busch Gardens, though it has some jet-propulsive refinements. Another thrill ride, Dr. Doom's Fear Fall, is supposed to extract "raw human fear" from the brains of its strapped-in victims, but it's just a fresh version of the Big Shot, a four-G slingshot perched 1,000 ft. above Las Vegas, atop the Stratosphere Hotel. Woodbury has already fine-tuned this 40-sec. bungee blast. As he says...
Both spreads come with pretty good scientific credentials. The key ingredient in Benecol, which was approved last week by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, comes from a compound that occurs naturally in pine trees. Take Control, which got the green light in April, uses an extract made from soybean oil. Randomized, controlled trials show that folks with mildly elevated cholesterol levels (between 200 mg/dl and 240 mg/dl) who ate roughly two tablespoons of Benecol a day decreased their level of LDL, the "bad cholesterol," about 14%. The manufacturers of Take Control, on the other hand, designed their product...

...margarine that can help cut your cholesterol. The Food and Drug Administration on Tuesday approved a new cholesterol-reducing margarine called Benecol, which is made with a substance found in pine trees. Available next week, it follows on the heels of Take Control, a spread containing a natural soybean extract, which hit the shelves last week. The two new products are among the first of a new series of foods that are designed to act like drugs and promote health or prevent disease. "The studies show that these products may provide cholesterol benefits," says TIME senior health reporter Janice Horowitz...
...evocation of a great era that has passed. For despite the Communist-baiting fears and the network's lack of appreciation for the show, the writers are bound together by loyalty and fondness for each other and for Max. This affection is humorously shown through Ira's determination to extract a declaration of love from Max during their fight and more seriously demonstrated in Max's vow to keep all of his writers on the payroll despite budget limitations. Thus the play does not end with Lucas' speech describing in end of the show, the parting of ways...
