Inside the neurogeneticists' community there is more argument than consensus over the genes involved in mental health. Diagnosis of psychiatric illness is notoriously subjective and genetic heterogeneity is the rule, not the exception, even when diagnosis is more certain. In order to trace inheritance patterns neuroscientists focus on a genetic isolate population whose members suffer from a disorder with unusually high frequency. My lab's investigation of BPAD used a genetic isolate from the Old Order Amish in Lancaster County, Penn. Not only were we able to find several families with expression rates of BPAD as high as 20 percent...
Even if a reliable missile defense is feasible, is it necessary? Releasing smallpox in a major city could also kill millions, and it would be difficult to trace the attacker. A missile-defense shield will provide Americans with a false sense of security. RUSSELL ROBERSON North Little Rock...
...Idris's complaint notes that U.S. officials steadily backed away from some of the allegations about the factory and its owner made in the weeks following the strike, eventually basing their justification for the attack primarily on the claim that a soil sample collected near the plant contained traces of EMPTA, a chemical compound used in the manufacture of VX nerve gas. That's why Idris's lawyers commissioned research institutes in Boston and the Netherlands to independently examine samples taken from the ruins of the plant, which experts agree would likely still contain substantial evidence of chemical weapons agents...
...first to trace the Rodhams back to a "raw and sparse" life in Scranton, Pa., where Hillary's grandfather worked 16-hour days in a lace factory and most of his relatives were "exhausted laborers, blistered farmers...drab loners, prudish spinsters, lonely bachelors, and sad drinkers." Her great-uncle George Beale Rodham was "an aberration in a family of underachievers," a second-tier political boss. The author suggests she inherited her skills from him. Other Rodhams ran "a fleabag hotel and a beer-and-gin-joint...in the heart of Scranton's infamous red-light district...
...Time Regained), is an ideal Proust in pictures. It roams through prewar drawing rooms, attending to whispers of malice and amour. A brilliant man (Marcello Mazzarella, as Marcel) talks to a ravishing woman (Emmanuelle Beart, as Gilberte) of an old wound. "Heartbreak can kill," he says, "but leaves no trace." The roue Charlus (John Malkovich) takes his sexual pleasures at the business end of a whip. These characters are often crushed by the burden of glamour, but the film isn't. It wears its gravity with a buoyant ease, seeing through walls, magically turning statues into people. It shows Marcel...
