...fact, the majority of the songs on the soundtrack are little more than bland, unoriginal works whose peppy beats are quickly dulled by the simple and repetitious verses they all employ. To be fair to the album, the target audience must be considered. The problem is the album itself seems confused about who that audience is. The colorful artwork of the album's cover is sure to catch the eye of any pre-teen, who make up most of the faithful watchers of the Pokemon TV cartoon, and the first track is the Pokemon theme (by Billy Crawford), again another...

Though it is no small feat being ranked No. 1 in the EIWA at 165-pounds and in the top ten nationally, Killar makes it all seem easy. The phenomenal Killar was an EIWA champion last year and earned All-American accolades with a sixth place finish at NCAAs--despite missing the dual meet season due to injury.

Here's new hope for the millions of Americans suffering from chronic pain: A team of University of Minnesota researchers has isolated a small set of neurons on the spinal cords of rats that seem to relay chronic pain, and deactivated them with the neurotoxin saporin. The result: quick and permanent relief of various forms of chronic pain. While it has yet to be tested in primates, researchers hope that this could one day spell permanent relief to migraine sufferers, arthritis patients and sufferers of backaches and creaky joints...
