...from person to person. Even five or 10 years after a diagnosis, some people have only modest memory loss while retaining old skills like the ability to play golf or sail a boat--or, for that matter, to recall long-ago happenings. Alzheimer's, moreover, is one of the hottest areas of scientific research. Already scientists have identified some of the genes involved in the growth of the nerve-cell-killing plaques in the brain that are widely suspected to be at the root of the disease. These discoveries make it quite likely that we'll start seeing the first...
...paintings in the show are unutterable camp, but that was what the upper-middle classes liked in the Belle Epoque, and artists saw no reason to deprive them of it.

In the past year alone, the FDA has approved three such drugs (for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, breast cancer and leukemia). And more are in the pipeline, because scientists are becoming increasingly skilled at designing drugs that target specific, critical molecular processes that tumor cells need to survive. Herceptin, for example, takes advantage of the fact that most breast-cancer cells overproduce a certain growth-factor protein; the drug preferentially seeks out tumor cells...

Eminem is also fearlessly blunt at times, cruelly deriding the talents of the hottest pop stars. "Don't get me started/these f_______ brats can't sing," he raps about the boy band 'N Sync. "And Britney's garbage/What--is this bitch retarded...
...atmosphere at the electronic entertainment Expo (E3) was muted this year--literally. Organizers at the hottest convention in the hard-core video gamer's calendar set noise limits and put decibel meters on its vendors, whose celeb-studded shows and my-game's-louder-than-yours posturing have split a few eardrums in years past...
