...maker. A month earlier, Jessy San Miguel, who had killed four people execution-style while robbing a Taco Bell, had asked for "Pizza (beef, bacon bits, and multiple types of cheese), 10 quesadillas (5 mozzarella cheese, 5 cheddar cheese), 5 strips of open-flame grilled beef, 5 strips of stir-fried beef, chocolate peanut butter ice cream, sweet tea, double fudge chocolate cake, broccoli and grapes" before he lay down for the last time on that Huntsville gurney...
That same year, other research teams, including one led by Selkoe, created yet another stir. They zeroed in on the elusive enzymes that snip the beta-amyloid fragment from the precursor protein. "We had the paper, and now we had the scissors," says Selkoe. If he is right, one of those scissors, gamma secretase, may actually be the presenilin-1 protein.

"I couldn't get a single parent to attend a planning meeting, and we had just won a state championship in football," he says. But before ruling out the Osceola system for his five-year-old son Jackson, Brothers saw one last...
That was the argument Al Gore made last week, trying to use that "razor-thin" margin to stir up women. At an energy event in Ohio, the Vice President tossed out his script and launched a discussion of the high court's future, warning that the election "will decide whether or not we keep a woman's right to choose or see it taken away." This may sound like campaign hyperbole, but it isn't. Three of the Justices nearing retirement--John Paul Stevens, 80; Sandra Day O'Connor, 70; and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, 67 (all have battled cancer)--belong...
