...hadn't the spacecraft responded to controllers' signals before? Perhaps, suggested an ESA scientist, the probing signals were too complex for the weakened SOHO to comprehend. Early in August controllers sent a much simpler message. Result: contact! SOHO responded by transmitting its carrier signal. It was still alive and, as its batteries gradually charged, able to transmit a modicum of data...
...television show explicitly designed for the one- to two-year-old set, it centers on the comical activities of four fuzzy creatures who speak in baby talk, eat Tubby Custard ("Tubby Tustard!"), share "big hugs," and have TV antennas on their heads and TV screens on their stomachs that transmit short film clips showing real children. In other words, this is a TV show about infants, for infants, that extols the wonders of, among other things, television. So what? say kids'-TV veteran Wood, 60, and co-creator Andrew Davenport, 33, a trained speech therapist and former performance artist; they...

Oprah featured it and Bohnett on her TV show to illustrate the dubious pleasures of Web snooping. When crowds flocked to the site, Bohnett was ready. He put on his camera page links to "neighborhoods" that were really...
...addiction, breakthrough promises have been made and broken many times; methadone was once considered a miracle drug, and heroin itself was developed to cure addictions. But researchers say buprenorphine could be the answer. Like heroin and methadone, it bonds to certain receptors in the brain, blocking the pain they transmit and convincing the brain that the cravings have been satisfied. Yet somehow it does that without creating cravings for itself. Even long-term junkies who try buprenorphine simply do not want heroin anymore...
