Some athletes are banking on a different strategy: gene therapy. Researchers have developed techniques to insert EPO-producing genes into cells so they can generate additional amounts of EPO long term. But again, says Wadler, "since overproduction of red cells is potentially lethal, this technique requires a pharmacological on-off switch." Researchers are using various techniques to devise controllable EPO delivery systems, in which genes inserted into the skin can be turned on and off either by taking a pill or rubbing a chemical on the skin. Other scientific groups are encapsulating genetically engineered EPO-producing cells in man-made...
...field of the Feinstein vs. Schumer Senate staff softball game. But come September 13, not even the overstocked lineup of the “Never Say Di” squad will be able to bar these manly-man arms from the diamond. On that day, my biceps, and less lethal assault weapons like the AK-47 and TEC-DC9 are set to be legally manufactured and sold for the first time in ten years...
...begins with a crime scene. A young man lies unconscious in his bedroom, naked and vomiting blood. Above him, a young woman in a long white dress screams into the phone: "What am I doing?" As paramedics soon learn, her engineer boyfriend has been sedated, then injected with a lethal dose of heroin. "Massage his heart!" they instruct the hysterical woman. It could be a scene from Pulp Fiction - but the life-giving jab of Narcan never comes. "When they saw that it was too long since he had taken a breath," the author writes, "when they saw that...
...that go). To be sure, De Antonio's jubilant bias sometimes plays him false. Nixon is too often seen stumbling over a foot or a phrase, and sometimes satire descends to the level of easy derision ... But when it works, De Antonio's sense of juxtaposition can be lethal ... [He] is also shrewd enough to know when Nixon is his own worst enemy, and he devotes a long section of Millhouse to the Checkers speech alone. Reciting his list of assets, attempting to sound humble and folksy ... all the while struggling grimly to look natural, Nixon seems to emerge...
...that Alexei cares much for culture. After what he considers to be a lifetime of oppression, he says he's ready for war. A lathe operator by trade, his role models include Timothy McVeigh, who killed 168 people in the 1995 Oklahoma Federal Building bombing and was executed by lethal injection in 2001, and Robert Jay Mathews, leader of the Order, an American white supremacist group, who died in a shoot-out with police in December 1984. "We don't consider ourselves Russian," Alexei says. "We belong to the white race!" According to Vyacheslav Sukhachev, professor of sociology...
