Handerhan tipped the rebound and Hill scrambledfor it, getting a touch before the ball fell outof bounds on the baseline. Again, a toss-up callwent Lehigh's way as the zebras ruled Hill sent itout with 28.9 seconds to play. The Mountain Hawksmade 5-of-6 from the line thereafter to seal thewin...
...Irvine's Child Development Center, a model program that specializes in ADD and ADHD. She attended the school's summer program. "It was a horrid summer," Tim recalls. "Behavior modification was controlling a lot of things, but the impulsivity would snowball. She would be told not to touch something--whether a car's gearshift or a radio or a computer. You'd say 'Don't touch,' and she would look at you and you could see she heard, but you'd see her hand slowly moving toward it--and she knew if she touched it, she would have to take...
This is Watergate manque. Starr is not Archibald Cox. Henry Hyde has Sam Ervin's white hair but not his folksy touch. There are no bipartisan Wise Men like Howard Baker, nowhere the drama of a fresh question revealing a secret White House taping system.

...Furby also responds to touch, sound and light and apparently "develops" as a human playmate gets to know it. Indeed, California inventor David Hampton was inspired by the nurture-intensive electronic Tamagotchis he saw at the Toy Fair last year. One Furby advantage over the Tamagotchi: it doesn't die. Instead, the Furby "learns" to speak English, and it can teach a child Furbish, concocted by Hampton from Japanese, Thai, Hebrew and Mandarin Chinese. (Lesson One: "kah a-tay" means "I'm hungry.") Hampton sees his Furbies as the Adams and Eves of a grander world of interactive electronics...
