...None of these advances mean that living with cancer is easy, or even possible. A certain percentage of patients, as Snow and Edwards surely know, do not respond to any current treatments. And some types of cancer - particularly pancreatic, ovarian and stomach - continue to have high mortality rates, one reason cancer still kills 560,000 Americans every year. Side effects remain an issue as well, though antinausea medications are now so good that some doctors say it's rare for their patients to vomit. And drugs that prevent anemia and a drop in white blood cells mean patients can carry...

But with India and Pakistan out of the Cup, audience size is expected to plummet. Advertisers are already demanding rebates on air time purchased on the assumption India would make it to the next round.

They may have broken the law, say their supporters, but look at their contribution to the community. Most have lived in Montfort since 2002, when they were recruited by the local abattoir struggling fill the positions. Even though much of the work involved slaughtering pigs, the Muslim Malians worked their long, early...
