...Santorum. "We had heard rumors that the President was going to fund stem-cell research, and many of us thought this was going to be the Frist proposal." Santorum says Bush's decision might "actually stop further destruction of human life because the scientists who now are looking for robust funding programs are going to be working with these existing stem-cell lines. So the desire to create more stem-cell lines through destruction of human embryos will be alleviated...
...other areas of research, however, the door hasn't been closed to latecomers the way it has with stem cells, and that has the scientific community worried. In order to maximize the medical payoff from stem-cell research, researchers prefer to work with the most robust population of cell lines possible. No one knows, after all, if some lines are more viable than others and if some lend themselves to many uses while others to only a few. If too many of the lines dead-end or die off, research could stagnate. "Some stem-cell uses," says Krause, "will require...
...classic designs from the 1930s, '40s and '50s are still in production at the Fritz Hansen furniture company (www.fritzhansen.com), based in the Copenhagen suburb of Allerod.

What remains to be seen, then, is whether the NLA, or any faction among them, will choose to test NATO's will - and how the alliance will respond if its adopted role of Balkan enforcer is challenged...
...aware of the problem; indeed, it had been reported earlier in the week that it held off on a more robust strike in the belief that its benefits would not outweigh the negative political fallout in the Arab world. The latest raids are almost certain to amplify the already rampant anti-American sentiment on the streets of even the most pro-Western Arab capitals, and that's good news for the likes of Saddam and Osama Bin Laden...
