...featherweight. All told, I'm carrying nearly 2 kg of paraphernalia on me: the heaviest bits are the CPU (900 g) and the lithium-ion battery pack (450 g). Being, ahem, somewhat heavyset myself, I scarcely feel the extra weight at first; but after 30 minutes my neck and shoulders are strained from wearing the 400-g headset. With time, practice and some gym work, I could probably get used to the load. Luckily I won't have to. In a couple of months, Xybernaut will launch the MA-V, the next-generation wearable. In December it will release...
...perhaps through antiangiogenesis. Scientists are currently studying its effect on noninherited colon cancers. And because the receptor for COX-2 is overexpressed on a range of human cancer types, the hope is that COX-2 inhibitors may be useful in preventing a wider range of cancers, including head and neck, bladder, non-small cell lung and breast cancers...
Those are only two drugs that keep EGF from doing its job. Gleevec, which reversed Reiter's and Ferber's leukemia so dramatically, is another; so is Tarceva, a drug from OSI Pharmaceuticals in Uniondale, N.Y., which is showing promise against some lung tumors as well as head and neck cancers. Neither of these compounds keeps EGF from docking with cells; instead, each worms its way inside the cells, where it intercepts growth messages percolating in from the surface. Astra Zeneca, headquartered in London, is testing a similar compound, Iressa, against some lung, stomach and prostate cancers...

...look around and realize that I've never been in this neck of the woods before. And if I could, I'd get in my car and drive back to a place I was familiar with, wherever that was. Only I might run out of gas and not be able to afford to refill the tank. That's what is called a crisis in America these days--expensive gasoline--which is one of the reasons I don't know where I am any- more, because I thought that a crisis meant the AIDS pandemic in Africa or the state...
