Enzyme Heip. About 50% of all gas victims suffer from either excessive or inadequate motility in the bowel. Lessened muscular activity is more likely to occur in elderly patients, whose food passes normally as far as the end of the small bowel, but then slows down in the flabby large bowel. The remedy in most of these cases, said Dr. Danhof, is bethanechol chloride, sold as Myocholine and Urecholine, to improve the bowel's muscle tone. In the overactive bowel, commonly associated with nervous conditions, frothing or foaming may occur. A useful remedy: dimethylpolysiloxane with pepsin (trade name: Phazyme...

Primitive Version. To support this hypothesis, Martin points out that the large mammals that perished during the Late Pleistocene had survived previous advances and retreats of the ice sheets. And although scientists generally agree that the major climatic changes of the past 50,000 years occurred at approximately the same time throughout the world, the disappearance of species did not. Thus the antlered giraffe disappeared from Africa more than 40,000 years ago, and the rhino-sized Diprotodon and giant kangaroo became extinct in Australia about 14,000 years ago. In Europe and Asia, the woolly rhinoceros and the woolly...

Carmen, Baby, reputed successor to I, A Woman in the skin flick genre, aspires to higher things. It promises a story. A squeaky voice at the beginning warns that events will occur--perhaps even a death. And the hero--that's what you call the pugnosed, smalleyed scarecrow in a cop's uniform--knows what virtue is. At one time he patrolled a beat, reported on time, and protected prostitutes from armed prostitutes. But the hero's struggle against ungodly tendencies and the hint of a plot are a cover-up. The movie's a smorgasbord for voyeurs...

...Expanded Facilities. The enrollment cutback-if it happens-would occur just at a time when most graduate schools have been expanding their facilities. The deans fear not only a sharp drop in income from tuition, but also a crippling of the research now largely carried out by graduate students on behalf of their supervising professors. Since graduate students also carry much of the undergraduate teaching load at big universities, a depletion of their ranks would force some professors out of their labs and libraries and back into classrooms. That, in turn, might force research-oriented scholars to switch to universities...
