...mail is really as addictive as gambling, there must be a 12-step program somewhere to treat it. Sure enough, a Web search turns up an e-mail recovery program created back in 1997 by a pair of Florida State University administrators, Perry Crowell and Larry Conrad. It's pretty crude, Crowell admits, and because it was written before the explosion in users, traffic and e-mail viruses, it seems almost naive. "If we were to update it today, we might very well declare defeat," says Crowell...
...PMDD sounds a lot like major depression, that's because the symptoms are very similar. So it's not surprising that standard antidepressants can help. In July 2000, the agency approved the antidepressant fluoxetine (Sarafem) to treat PMDD. Now sertraline (Zoloft) has also been given the nod largely on the strength of Yonkers' study of 200 women with PMDD. That research, first published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, showed Zoloft to be significantly more effective than a sugar pill...
...nothing for students. The Harvard and Radcliffe Choral Society performed with the Boston Symphony Orchestra every year and, even if one couldn’t sing (my fate), the opportunity to see one’s classmates performing with one of the great world symphony orchestras was an enormous treat...
...could treat his female subjects with measureless respect. One of the finest examples of this in his work, and in this show, is his portrait of the Duchess of Osuna with her husband and family, 1787-88. Related to half the noblest clans in Spain, she was the most cultivated, educated and liberal woman of her age: patron of writers and artists (including, notably, Goya), with her own theater where new plays by the leading dramatists of the day were given, her own chamber orchestra to play Haydn and Boccherini to her guests, and a deep involvement with issues...
Breast cancer is a prime example. For more than two decades, women with early-stage, estrogen-sensitive breast cancers have been treated with surgery followed by a combination of tamoxifen and chemotherapy. Adding tamoxifen seemed to make sense, since it blocks estrogen's cancer-promoting effects. It turns out, however, that tamoxifen may act as a spoiler, preventing the chemotherapy agents from entering cancer cells and doing their job. In a paper being presented this week, researchers will report on a finding that should change the way doctors treat patients from now on; after eight years of follow-up exams...
