...floodgates would open. Right now most scientists steer clear of stem-cell research because they have to: if any part of their lab receives federal money (and most do), they can't touch this research. If that changes, hundreds of labs across the country, including medical powerhouses like those at Harvard and M.I.T., would probably begin work on stem cells. Scientists would be able to share findings freely and review one another's conclusions. The government could choose to regulate how embryos are cultivated, handled and ultimately destroyed. Treatments would probably come sooner. Of course, there are no guarantees...
...automatically erased and taped over, cops missed the chance to see who came and went that crucial week. By not pressing Condit to tell them everything he knew about Chandra, they may have lost the chance to follow leads while they were fresh. Condit's side kept trying to steer reporters to a theory of a serial killer (several young women have disappeared from around Dupont Circle).

...energy prices climbing and unsold cars, computers and communications gear piling up. But you do need them to tell you when things are going to get better. When? That's what we asked TIME's Board of Economists. Their unanimous answer: Not right away. Even if the U.S. can steer clear of a recession--and one panelist says we may be in one already--the economy will remain so weak for the next 12 months that to millions of Americans, conditions will still feel like a slump, particularly as unemployment rises. And it will rise...
