Haynes again narrowed the gap at 2:18 of the third and Dan DeMichele gave Harvard a 5-4 edge with two power play goals midway through the period. Penn still refused to fold, tying it up at 15:12. Then with less than two minutes left. Corkery ended the game, converting a perfect pass from Bob Mcmanama...
...complex molecule, a chain of 188 amino acids with two loops, one containing six subunits, the other 93. To reproduce the molecule, Li and his associates had first to determine the order of the acids in the chain and then reconstruct them from available ingredients. Finally they had to fold the chain and its loops into the precise size and three-dimensional shape of the natural hormone. Li's work was made even more difficult by the scarcity of natural HGH. All of the HGH presently available for either treatment or research must be obtained from the recently deceased...
...identified the structure of the HGH molecule in 1966, spent two years learning how to fold his synthetic substitute, two more constructing the chemical bridges between the loops. The result, a synthetic molecule that has about 10% of the growth-producing properties of the natural hormone, more than justifies his efforts. The hormone not only controls growth but also has a profound influence on important bodily functions, including the metabolism of sugar, fats and proteins, and the production of sex hormones. Chemical production of the compound on a large scale would guarantee a plentiful supply for research into...
...think of my work as more flamboyant, which you're not supposed to use in minimal work. Instead of being unimportant, my work is very outrageous." His large floor piece, Bloomin', is an artificial wooden garden: panels of coarsely cut building board lie flat as grass or fold into flowerlike cones; sprouts of timber push upward. "I want the color to look like growth, living and flowers. Brown is the earth, green for growth, bright colors for mature flowers." Spring unfolds in the unheard creakings of Shostak's rough carpentry. ∎Robert Hughes
...Unfortunately, we are unable to export, because although the quality is excellent, it is not even sufficient for local consumption. We plan to increase production, however, and from 2000, for example, or 20,000 sheep that the area has now, to increase them ten-fold...
