The series, produced by Actor Peter Strauss, will chronicle the interplay of cultures that helped shape the city of Los Angeles from 1840 to 1975. A Hispanic Roots? Maybe not. But if El Pueblo/L.A. scores big in the ratings, it could do what Roots did for blacks: turn Hispanics, belatedly, into TV's hottest minority...
Other scientists note that global climate moves in broad historical cycles of warming and cooling tens of thousands of years long. Astronomical cycles, volcanoes, the interplay of deserts, oceans, cloud cover, even the methane produced by termites, can affect the density of the atmospheric greenhouse. Declares Chester Ropelewski, a climate specialist with the Maryland-based Climate Analysis Center: "It's still not clear whether this is the CO2 signal. The hard evidence isn't there...
...shifts the problem from the psychological to the socio-economic realm.

By subjecting the adult mice to carcinogens and studying the malignancies that develop, scientists will have a unique opportunity to analyze the complex interplay between environmental and hereditary origins of cancer -- and possibly even produce more sensitive diagnostic tests for human breast cancer. Harvard has granted an exclusive license to produce the patented mice to Du Pont, the Delaware-based chemical giant...
