...School of Dental Medicine will award 37 clinical specialty certificates and 28 doctor of dental medicine (D.M.D.) degrees, 12 master of medical sciences in oral biology (M.M.Sc.) degrees and 2 doctor of medical sciences in oral biology (D.M.Sc.) degrees...
...prose: "I came into this Country, where I found a new World and new manners at which my heart rose." Inspirational--until you realize that the powers-that-be seem to be trying to pull a fast one on us. I came across the quote while studying for oral exams, and learned that Bradstreet was describing not her excitement, but instead her utter dread about her new, strange home. Apparently, Porter University Professor Helen Vendler explained this context quickly to the assembled crowd during the celebratory weekend. Unfortunately for the rest of us, Vendler is too busy to stand...
...still delivers foreign-policy speeches haltingly and looks like a grad student struggling through his oral exams when he faces reporters on the subject. But lately George W. Bush has shown some new smarts, swimming in waters that previously seemed over his head to counter those impressions. He helped Bill Clinton turn back a shortsighted Republican move to pull U.S. troops from Kosovo. It would "tie the President's hand," he intoned presidentially.

...most common adulterants in such pills are aspirin, caffeine and other over-the-counters. (Contrary to lore, fake e virtually never contains heroin, which is not cost-effective in oral form.) But the most insidious adulterant--what all eight of the Oakland ravers took--is DXM (dextromethorphan), a cheap cough suppressant that causes hallucinations in the 130-mg dose usually found in fake e (13 times the amount in a dose of Robitussin). Because DXM inhibits sweating, it easily causes heatstroke. Another dangerous adulterant is PMA (paramethoxyamphetamine), an illegal drug that in May killed two Chicago-area teenagers who took...
...report, which crystallizes long-standing theories linking smoking with gum disease, follows on the heels of last week?s announcement from the Surgeon General analyzing the various causes and effects of poor oral hygiene. That survey also pinpointed the populations most likely to be affected by gum disease: Black men and low income adults. Those populations are also the most likely to smoke. As grim as the findings may be, health officials sounded optimistic Tuesday as they discussed the implications of the study. Faced with a clear causative relationship between cigarettes and gum disease, officials figure they are in perfect...
