...colleagues’ original goal was not to produce a glucose-measuring ink, but rather one to measure sodium levels in the skin, she said. When that project showed promising results in mouse trials, the director of the bioengineering department at the time challenged the researchers to apply a similar approach to glucose. Though they were initially skeptical of the project’s feasibility, Clark and her team now hope to begin animal testing in a few weeks. According to Clark, one concern that has been voiced about the technology is whether glucose measurements taken from the skin...

...this seriously? In any event, violence has surprisingly little impact when everything seems drowned in silver lighting and dance beats. Such glamorization of violence can be dangerous; don’t let Chris Brown see this video. The images on the video are objectively passionate and tempestuous, but no similar feeling is communicated through the music. The beat is infectious but not irresistible, the images glamorous but vapid. Ciara’s strong voice almost makes up for Enrique’s ubiquitous posturing. Together they are a satisfactory pop duet. —Catherine A. Morris

...unanimous decision, the Supreme Court upheld Cook's right to an on-air response under the Fairness Doctrine, arguing that nothing in the First Amendment gives a broadcast license holder the exclusive right to the airwaves they operate on. But when Florida tried to hold newspapers to a similar standard in 1974's Miami Herald Publishing Co. V. Tornillo, the Supreme Court was less receptive. Justices agreed that newspapers - which don't require licenses or airwaves to operate - face theoretically unlimited competition, making the protection of the Fairness Doctrine unneeded...

...lifelong Catholic, Pelosi could not feign surprise at being called upon by the Church to use her gift for persuasion to restrict abortion legislatively, or at least not to be its advocate. But until now, the Church had not formally instructed judges in a similar fashion. As written, the Pope's statement has the potential, at least theoretically, to empty the U.S. Supreme Court of all five of its Catholic jurists and perhaps all other Catholics who sit on the bench in the lower federal and state courts...
