...percent believe they will reach the highest 1 percent in their lifetimes. When Shrum advises his candidates to condemn corporations, he ignores that (according to the Survey of Consumer Finances) nearly half of all Americans own some form of stock—and want American companies to succeed. And when Shrum advises his candidates to call President Bush a tool of selfish special interests, he lets the president too far off the hook. Bush is responsible for foreign policy lies, for the biggest deficits ever, for millions of jobs lost—his special interest supporters aren?...
Several factors helped the Koreans succeed where others had failed. To start with, they had a large supply of eggs. The researchers lined up 16 female volunteers who found the project through its website. To avoid any taint of coercion, the women weren't paid. They were fully informed about the research and its risks, however, and given several opportunities to change their mind. In the end, the 16 women furnished 242 eggs--many more than in any previous cloning attempt...
...Korean team believes that two other factors may have helped them succeed. While most cloners suck out an egg's nucleus with a tiny pipette, Moon and Hwang made a pinhole in the cell wall and used a tiny glass needle to apply pressure and squeeze the nucleus out. "It's more gentle with the egg and allows you to remove only the DNA and leave some of the major components of the egg still inside," says Jose Cibelli, a professor of animal biotechnology at Michigan State University and a co-author of the Science paper. "Actually, it's pure...
...more affluent city centers, and the project could initially create around 100,000 new jobs for residents. Borloo is basing this drive on his success in the 1990s as mayor of the northern city of Valenciennes, where he reinvigorated the banlieues through construction projects and job creation. To succeed on a national scale, he'll have to reverse decades of neglect and indifference, which has led many banlieue residents to embrace the very cultural and religious identities that the Feb. 10 secularity vote seeks to discourage. And while opponents of the ban vow to continue their nationwide protests through...
...vivacity of the original. You can see how it must have looked on paper. Take a dialogue-heavy, witty film (written by the urbane Nora Ephron) and cast aging teen heartthrob Luke Perry across from in-vogue Hannigan in a stage version. Financially, the combination is almost sure to succeed - Perry still has a cult following from his stint in the '90s TV soap Beverly Hills 90210, and Hannigan has guaranteed youth market appeal after American Pie and her lead role in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. But the play crucially falls down in the production. Too much of London...
