...babies at a time spend their first days and weeks tangled in tubes and wires, struggling to keep warm and learning what full-term babies already know: how to breathe, suckle and swallow. Zachary Sean Noble is one of the smallest. Born three months early at 1 lb. 7 oz.--as light and fragile as a carton of eggs--he can breathe only with the help of a ventilator. As he sleeps, his tiny chest heaves and the translucent fingertips of his right hand open and close over his crumpled face...

...drives of Housman and Goffredo forced Maine’s big men into critical foul trouble. Tchekane-Bofia was an unstoppable force on the glass, collecting seven offensive rebounds and 17 points, nearly all coming on second-chance put-backs.

Additionally, center Olli Ahvenniemi fouled out late in the contest and played just 20 minutes overall...

That may be true, though the introduction of a 40-lb. beast outside your window doesn't exactly bring a sense of tranquillity. With their sharp teeth and long, muscular tail that can swat an errant primate from a couple of feet away, langurs are scary not just to smaller monkeys but also to humans. Khan says business is good, despite the recent proliferation of competitors. The company he works for employs 12 langurs, including the two he was using to guard our building a few weeks ago: Babby, an 8-year-old female with a young baby playing...

...least invasive dermatological treatments is GentleWaves, an FDA-approved technique developed by Virginia Beach, Va., dermatologist Dr. David McDaniel. GentleWaves, a 45-lb., 15-in. machine with two panels consisting of 2,000 tiny light-emitting diodes, flashes an amber light at a patient's skin for 35 painless seconds.
