...over-the-counter pain killers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) are often all that's necessary to control their symptoms. Things become more complicated when inflammation is involved. Old standbys like aspirin or ibuprofen are pretty good anti-inflammatories, but long-term use can trigger dangerous side effects like internal bleeding. Newer drugs, such as COX-2 inhibitors Vioxx and Celebrex, are safer but no substitute for some of the long-term changes you may need to make...

...cordless phone that is a couple of years old or even a new one that costs less than $50, chances are it is a 900-MHz model that is highly susceptible to static or buzzing from baby monitors, wireless speaker systems and your neighbors' 900-MHz phones.

The current crop all want to be ?The Ring? or its even paler Hong Kong knockoff, ?The Eye,? another big hit that is soon to be remade in Hollywood.

Today's smart bombs make the old ones look dim-witted. What's more, newer smart bombs are far cheaper and easier to use, so there would be a lot more of them raining down on Iraqi targets. In 1991's Desert Storm, precision-guided munitions accounted for 7% of the bombs used. That share jumped to 30% in 1999's Kosovo conflict...
