...site next to Adelson in Cotai to build four hotels--three of them full casino resorts. "I think it is more important to focus on people's work than it is their talk, including mine--but especially his," says Wynn. "And when the smoke clears and all the flap-jaw, and all of the rhetoric and dust settles we'll see what we'll see." More than likely, we'll see Wynn and Adelson making another killing...
...underage-looking actresses to lure a parade of doctors, engineers and Marines to assignations in unassuming houses. There, guys with online handles like "sebastian_for_u" are surprised by reporter Chris Hansen, who grills and humiliates them before handing them over to cops.

...team led by Hansell Stedman of the University of Pennsylvania identified a tiny mutation in a gene on chromosome 7 that affects the production of myosin, the protein that enables muscle tissue to contract. The mutant gene prevents the expression of a myosin variant, known as MYH16, in the jaw muscles used in biting and chewing. Since the same mutation occurs in all of the modern human populations the researchers tested--but not in seven species of nonhuman primates, including chimps--the researchers suggest that lack of MYH16 made it possible for our ancestors to evolve smaller jaw muscles some...
