Even though adverse weather in many regions over several seasons had hurt supplies, the situation now seemed to be returning to normal and was set to take some pressure off prices, she said. "We do not think that the record levels reached in recent months are likely to persist," she said. "There is nothing in the current situation that shows we should make a U-turn...

The cancer arises from glial cells, which outnumber neurons 10 to 1, and whose function is to support the electrical activity of neurons in the brain - but doctors don't know what pushes normal glial cells to become cancerous in the first place. "We know very little about the biology of malignant glioma," says Dr. Azad Bonni, a professor of pathology at Harvard Medical School who is investigating some of the molecular explanations behind the disease...

If the lesion is in a location where surgeons can remove it easily, then he has a good chance of controlling the cancer with additional chemotherapy and radiation. "I have patients 20 and 30 years out from diagnosis, and they are functioning normally and doing well," says Brem. "We hope that Senator Kennedy becomes one of them...

The flour is sifted through a mosquito net. Once the doughnuts are done the bread rolls will be next; they are closed in a metal box that once held illumination rounds...

On the walls are homemade signs - some with photos, some with elegant Chinese calligraphy - listing the names of the missing, many of them likely dead. In normal times the stadium hosts Cantopop concerts and tennis tournaments. Today it's hosting thousands of survivors from last week's devastating earthquake...
