...straightforward; with the attached bases pointing outward, whatever code they might carry would be easily accessible. There seemed no chemically viable way to parse it, however, although Watson spent several days trying. Finally, he writes, "as I took apart a particularly repulsive backbone-centered molecule, I decided that no harm could come from spending a few days building backbone-out models." This would raise the tricky question of how to pack strings of bases against one another. But Watson put aside that worry for the moment...
...listen to Mr. Rumsfeld comparing Germany to Libya and Cuba, you don't need much imagination to see that we must be careful," he says. And he's not alone. There's a growing fear among German, French and Belgian businesspeople that their countries' dovish stance on Iraq could harm trade with America. In Belgium, where diamonds account for 25% of trade with the U.S., the industry has warned of "disturbing" signals from American buyers.

The Drug Free Student Loans Provision is patently and undeniably unjust because it closes the doors of higher education to only low-income students and does nothing to solve our nation’s drug problem. Worst of all, it removes the power judges previously had to deny federal aid to students on a case-by-case basis, which allowed for punishment...
