...surviving babies have had varying degrees of recovery, with the symptomatic ones remaining disabled but deteriorating more slowly and in some cases improving a bit. The mildly symptomatic or asymptomatic babies, though, did much, much better. "Our oldest survivor is 6 1/2," says Escolar. "She's now running, jumping and doing well in school." Best of all, since the stem cells take up residence in the brain and reproduce there like native cells, it appears to take just one dose of the therapy to achieve whatever recovery is possible...

Often oompah bands can be heard in the distance?a perfect German winery...

Importantly, one of the two titles earned last Sunday came in spectacular fashion against our oldest and most bitter opponent: the smelly Eli’s. The ugly stench of Yale has forged a path of pheromones to the noses of the Undergraduate Council (UC) who took its cues from our superior athletics program and announced its secession from the Ivy Council. Superiority comes in all shapes and sizes here at Harvard, including in student governance, and we are glad that UC President Matthew J. Glazer ’06 no longer has to mix with the riffraff.
