...letters suggest a man for whom writing was less a habit than a need, like food and water, as though the very act shaped his thoughts as much as the thoughts shaped the writing. Reagan didn't type; he wrote by hand in blue or black ink on a yellow legal pad or dictated for his secretaries to transcribe, and so the drafts were often saved, stuffed into a box and then forgotten. In 1996 Kiron Skinner, now a professor at Carnegie Mellon, was researching a book on the end of the cold war when she stumbled on the first...
...shingles virus (the same virus that causes chickenpox). One week after the study was completed, immune-cell levels increased an average of nearly 50% in those who practiced Tai Chi, while the control group showed no improvement. The results, which will need to be confirmed by larger studies, suggest that a little Tai Chi could be of great value to the elderly, since immunity to the shingles virus weakens with...

He looked like a character from a fantasy comic strip, while Gibson grinned sweetly...
...case for going to war without delay was always couched in terms of Iraq being "a grave and gathering danger," and so far, reports suggest, Kay's group has not, thus far, come up with the goods to support that case. Which means that his preliminary report comes at a bad time for the White House and 10 Downing Street. Just this week, polls find President Bush's domestic approval ratings at an all-time low of 49 percent, while his administration faces increasing difficulty in convincing his electorate and legislature to underwrite his commitments of American life and treasure...
