...Kerr is at a speaking engagement. Krause is trying to sign Pippen, who under the new rules can be paid more by the Bulls than by a different team. Reinsdorf would then probably trade Pippen to another team, like Los Angeles, for some young talent, like Eddie Jones. Good luck. Krause is in more promising negotiations with free agent Brent Barry of the Miami Heat. Barry is a 6-ft. 6-in. white guy who can dunk. Kids in Chicago will probably not want to "be like Brent," but the free-agent market is shrinking quickly, with Jayson Williams...
...realize that this is probably poor advice. But this sort of awful, misguided, pop-psychology is all you get when the wait to see a professional is a full week long. Perhaps, someone at University Hall should take note. In the meantime, good luck folks--on exams, papers, theses, navigating the ice and discovering the meaning of life. If things don't work out precisely as planned, remember, transcendental bliss is only a Scorpion Bowl away. Noah D. Oppenheim '00 is a social studies concentrator in Adams House...
...clebrate the wonder drug just yet. The study, which combined orlistat usage with a modified diet, showed only extremely modest weight loss. Participants who received the drug lost an average of only six and a half pounds more than those who took placebos; however, they did have better luck keeping the weight off. "It's not the magic bullet," says TIME health columnist Christine Gorman. "But literally every pound counts in terms of cholesterol and other health risks. Regaining only 35 percent of their lost weight is significant because regaining is so discouraging." And this drug is only...

The fact that only 50 members showed up to the final meeting of the outgoing council should be enough to indicate that the time has finally come to allow students to choose a limited number of representatives who will, with some luck, truly represent them...
Such feats of computational biology are still a few years off or, in the worst case, maybe even a few decades away. The point is, we are just beginning to see how dramatically gene-based science can change the ways in which new drugs are discovered and developed. Blind luck will play an increasingly smaller role as scientists tease out the complex interplay between genes, proteins and the environment. There is going to be confusion--some setbacks and disappointments--at least at first. But most in the field agree that pharmaceutical research has finally entered its golden...
