...exactly what genes make a particular strain of flu unusually deadly, all of the viruses that triggered pandemics over the past century - the catastrophic 1918 flu, but also the 1957 and 1968 pandemics - had a particular mutation in the gene that makes a protein called PB1-F2. The H1N1 virus also seems to lack mutations that make the especially virulent H5N1 avian flu, which has killed more than half the people with confirmed infections. (See pictures of the effects of swine flu in Mexico...

...over the nation after the devastation of the nuclear weapons dropped on Japanese cities. Japan calls its army the Self-Defense Force. Its soldiers don't wear uniforms on their commute to offices in Japan. Despite an annual defense budget of $40 billion - and such high-tech arms as F2 fighters and guided missile destroyers - newspapers were enraged last year when Tokyo's governor, the nationalist Shintaro Ishihara, referred to the Self-Defense Force as a "military." Years ago, children of Japan's 240,000 servicemen and women were bullied by schoolteachers: teachers' unions in Japan are strongly pacifist...
...medieval, etched, antiquated and well-crafted. The Loud Family, talented Australian songwriter and ex-punk Ed Kuepper, and the former bassist for the Jimi Hendrix Experience are featured items in the "latest" issue; the 7" record inside sounds good too.

Their experience is too limited, the researchers concede, for them to recommend routine use of prostaglandins for abortion, and they urge a more extensive trial. (Dr. Marc Bygdeman is already using F2 at Stockholm's Karolinska Institute.) But, they suggest, the technique could eliminate most of the risks in surgical abortion, notably infection and damage to the uterus. Perhaps equally important, when the technique of PG abortion is simplified and improved, it is likely to be more acceptable than surgery-both emotionally and aesthetically-to many women...
