Melrose Place is ostensibly a spin-off of Beverly Hills 90210, but the link is tenuous. The new show is set in a trendy Los Angeles apartment complex, where residents include Jake Hanson (Grant Show), a hunky construction worker seen in a few 90210 episodes this season. He is still being pursued by one of the 90210 nymphets but is trying to brush her off. "Kelly," he says ominously, "I have problems that you don't even know about...
...NIMH) in Bethesda, Md. With computerized scanners, researchers are peering at the chemistry of the working mind. Meanwhile, molecular biologists are beginning to map abnormal behavior to specific strands of dna. And by tracing the action of drugs like clozapine for schizophrenia and Prozac (fluoxetine) for depression, scientists can link moods and feelings to the action of certain chemicals in the brain. The result is a burst of new ideas about how the mind works -- and what is going on when it does not -- unequaled since the days of Freud and Jung...

...plankton they feed on in polluted waters, concentrating heavy metals like methylmercury in their organs. The little fish in turn are eaten by larger fish, further concentrating the toxins.

Though its samples were limited to two cities -- a point seized upon by critics, who also questioned testing procedures -- the Consumers Union study found that 40% of its swordfish samples had levels of mercury exceeding safety guidelines...
...wash, from which he produced brilliant summaries of movement, light and shade. The trace of the pen twists and flourishes, now with a liquid agitation, now in sheaves of parallel hatching as tense as wires. Nodes of darkness in a head or down the flank of a torso link up across the whiteness of the paper, and the fearlessness of tonal range attests to Guercino's mastery. He could work passages of light and dark that no reproduction can successfully convey...
