With microbes becoming ever more resistant to antibiotics--including the drug of last resort, vancomycin--the FDA's nod comes just in time: Zyvox is approved for staph bacteria, pneumonia and other serious infections. Now if only docs won't overprescribe it, lest the bugs develop resistance to it as well...
...draw it out with such beautiful, stark imagery that we cannot help but watch in horrified awe. Although it is Alexander's children who are murdered in Kennedy's play, it is Alexander herself that the American educational system tries to kill though an unnameable suffocation.

The rigor apparently pays off at test time. In a three...
...your Russian counterparts learned the hard way: "camaraderie" cannot be created from above, but rather bubbles up from below through meaningful dialogue and realization of common ends. Spirit Week may momentarily amuse the proletariat. But our lovable student Politburo should get moving on issues of real significance to students, lest the masses, though fragmented and discontented as they may be, decide to organize a coup...
