...early elections this fall. The country has been without a government since early June when a reformist Cabinet of political independents headed by Carlos Alberto Mota Pinto resigned under Socialist and Communist censure motions. An independent herself, Pintassilgo has been described as both a "Catholic militant" and a "pure social democrat." As Minister of Social Affairs in the first provisional government following the army-inspired Flower Revolution of 1974, she was best known for promoting the introduction of equal rights for women into the country's new constitution...
Several obstacles must yet be overcome. Among them: getting the bacteria to produce pure HGH and testing the substance in living creatures, including man. Still, the scientists hope that within two years vats of genetically redesigned E. coli will be acting as minifactories, churning out sufficient somatotropin to treat dwarfism.

...block out all the answers and reasons and verbal explanations and just concentrate on the pure contradiction, it could ruin the concert: Bob Marley, the king of reggae, singing "You Belly Full, But We Hungry" before thousands of Bostonians who were able to fork-out ten to 12 bucks for the ticket. Add to this, Harvard's Soldier Field Stadium. This is the same place thousands of graying, pudgy Harvard and Yale alumni sit each year in racoon coats drinking Johnny Walker Red, restraining their sphincter muscles and occasionally letting out quiet moans of excitement as they relive their repressed...
