...cure, the progressive, fatal condition continues to affect some 5 million Americans. Meanwhile, low-tech memory-enhancing devices like diaries, Post-It notes and portable cameras are used increasingly by Alzheimer's caregivers, leading some researchers to contemplate whether the consistent and comprehensive use of bedside solutions may actually slow the progression of the disease. If rudimentary tools have any chance of inhibiting the disease, health-care workers are interested. When it comes to Alzheimer's, even incremental improvements can have a profound effect: a 2004 Australian study found that delaying the onset of dementia by five years would eventually...
...without sending taxes through the roof will take a rather large feat of magic, not just determination and fiscal responsibility. Obama’s pledge points to either higher taxes down the road,or to broken promises. Higher taxes during recessions only exacerbate the pain felt by Americans and slow down recovery.

In many ways, the wasteful, destructive policies of the Bush administration that turned a budget surplus into the largest deficit since World War II have limited Obama’s options. Eventually...
...Senior Beier Ko dropped the first two games of her opening set, but quickly rebounded to 3-3 and proceeded to win at No. 1, 6-4, 6-4, improving her record to 4-0 in the dual season. “I got off to a slow start, but we were very motivated to play Illinois as a whole,” Ko said. “I was really determined to win that match.” Ko also played spectacularly with sophomore Agnes Sibilski in doubles at No. 2.

The Crimson opened the game at a slow pace, scoring only one goal in the first. GW also kicked off the game at a crawl and could only respond with one goal. But while the Colonels continued to stall, Kennifer and freshman Monica Zdrojewski amped up the pace. Complemented by two goals from Barton-Kettleborough, the freshman...
...play fast—quick tempo, quick shots, and pressing defense. Last year, Amaker did not have the personnel to run his system, but this year, he does. Wins at Boston College, New Hampshire, and Dartmouth prove it. But whenever the team comes to Jadwin, things start to slow down—considerably. “Obviously Princeton keeps things in low-scoring ways, so the numbers can be a little misleading in terms of the actual finishing numbers,” Amaker said. “But I thought we scraped and clawed defensively.” The defense...
