...looks at 21 genes in biopsied tissue to determine whether or not chemotherapy will be helpful for early breast cancer patients with recent diagnoses. At Duke University, molecular geneticist Joseph Nevins is testing a similar gene-based test for lung cancer. Researchers are aiming for tools that will tell them not only whether chemo is needed but also which specific drugs to use. Such a screen already exists for Herceptin, and many others are in development. Meantime, at the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Dr. Roy Herbst, chief of thoracic medical oncology, is looking for protein markers on lung...
...Piero had returned from his travels to Arezzo, the wealthy Bacci family commissioned what is widely considered his masterpiece in the city's Basilica of San Francesco. The Legend of the True Cross, a complex yet perfectly proportioned fresco cycle of 12 panels, uses contemporary models and references to tell the ancient legend of how the Emperor Constantine's mother discovered Christ's cross during a pilgimage to the Holy Land.

Simpson, like many officers, declines to say whether his background is Catholic or Protestant. When he talks to boys playing football in the street, they ask which team he roots for.

...what's the crime she's worried about? The mention of Libby suggests that it's perjury, but as Professor Orin Kerr, a criminal law expert at George Washington Law School, points out, you can't take the Fifth to avoid being prosecuted for lies you plan to tell under oath...
...More plausible is that Goodling suspects committee members of planning a "perjury trap," trying to catch her in a lie. And even if she does tell the truth, the committee could still get her if her testimony contradicts what others have told the committee, creating inconsistencies that might "leave her liable for at least being indicted for perjury," explains Professor Randolph Jonakait of New York Law School. Goodling's lawyer implies that this is a possibility when he mentions in the letter "a senior Department of Justice official" - widely believed to be Deputy Attorney General Paul McNulty - who has admitted...
