...unfertilized egg whose nucleus has been removed; then it is prodded into growing in a petri dish for a few days until its stem cells can be harvested. Unlike fertility-clinic embryos, these cells would match the patient's DNA, so the body would be less likely to reject a transplant derived from them. Even more exciting for researchers, however, is that this technique can yield embryos that serve as the perfect disease in a dish, revealing how a disease unfolds from the very first hours...
...would be welcomed by all Arab parties - probably including Hizballah - Israel will be reluctant to agree until it is assured of peace on its northern border. Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's government has thus far refused to negotiate for the return of the captured soldiers, and has vowed to reject any return to the pre-July 12 status quo on the Lebanese border. Instead, the Administration's proposal establishes a credible security plan for Israel's northern border, which Arab sources say would take the form of a robust NATO force mandated to act firmly to maintain stability in southern...
George W. Bush seldom suffered personally from doing what's unpopular politically. In fact, you could argue that he has made a career of it, holding fast to positions that many voters reject, as a sign of strength in these dangerous times.

"People like leadership much better than a finger in the wind," says White House press secretary...
...parents (not legislatures) to gauge how to balance their jobs and their parenting responsibilities. Voting Martin down for genuine reasons—if she were ardently against hunting, or if she held a vendetta against other members of the Commission—might be one thing, but to reject her without even holding a fair hearing reeks of fusty politics. And whether or not Bennett’s opposition to holding a fair vote stems from Martin’s status as a mother or status as a conservationist, his refusal should be worrisome, at the least.As if to nail...
...found, for example, that a 26-minute nap increased pilots' performance 34%. "What other management strategy will improve people's performance 34% in 26 minutes?" asks Mark Rosekind, president of Alertness Solutions, a fatigue-management consultancy, and the former NASA scientist who conducted the research. Yet most businesses still reject public napping. According to a survey by William Anthony, a Boston University professor of rehabilitation counseling who created National Napping Day, 70% of respondents who sleep at work do so secretly, often curled up in the backseat of their car at lunch...
