...they always have such high-class problems, right? The Rolls gets a flat, the maid gets a book deal. Not so, actually. Saturday Night Live comedian MAYA RUDOLPH and her movie-director boyfriend Paul Thomas Anderson recently fled their $13,500-a-month New York City loft--with their infant--because of bugs. Not the spy kind, the bite-you-in-your-bed kind. All together now: eeeeeew. Also, the elevator didn't work. Naturally, they're suing. And the bugs are looking for a book deal...
Nothing worries parents more than a sick infant--especially when nobody can figure out what's wrong. For Asher Gould's parents, the uncertainty lasted for the first three years of their son's life. Asher's older brother Sam, now 10, has always been pretty healthy. But a couple of months after he was born, Asher started having trouble feeding and was spotting his diapers with blood. The pediatrician decided he had an allergy to milk. Then, at 9 months, he couldn't crawl or sit up. The diagnosis this time was hypotonia, a vague term that basically means...
Researchers at Children’s Hospital Boston and Harvard Medical School have found new evidence that sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is related to abnormalities in nerve cells in the brain stem, unraveling more about an elusive disease whose cause has been shrouded in mystery.

...Lingus by reducing its costs and its fares for the benefits of consumers everywhere. You sued the British government for losses you attribute to security measures imposed after August's foiled terrorist plot. Where's the balance between safety and punctuality? Reducing cabin baggage to large briefcases, body searching infant children or confiscating toothpaste does not improve security one iota. We welcome the recent moves to restore U.K. airport security to the sensible and effective standards we campaigned for. You say you'd like to "stuff it" to British Airways. Why the vitriol? Anyone charging airfares that are five times...
...Craigslist is great, but they’re a massive bulletin board site trying to do so many different things,” says Jaffe. “I’ve sold my couches on there before.” Though the Kizmeet community is still in its infant stages, the site has already started to attract attention from students and the general Cambridge public; new Harvard-related postings have been popping up every day or two since the site went live in the middle of September. In the words of an enthusiastic M4W Toscanini’s customer...
