Humans share about half the roundworm’s 20,000 genes, including 200 of the fat-storage genes, but whether the same gene deactivation technique will work out in humans is still unclear...
...around Manhattan holding a poster of Mottola with horns. Now Mottola is facing another breakup. He announced last week that he wanted to start his own label and was leaving Sony, where since 1989 he has guided singers like Jennifer Lopez. Whether he jumped or was pushed remains unclear. Sony is suffering from a slump affecting the entire music industry. Taking his place will be NBC president Andrew Lack, who years ago worked at CBS with Sony's current U.S. chief, Howard Stringer...

Good Day. That’s what Guttentag means in German and that’s what is embroidered in neat block letters on Lisa Guttentag’s blue L.L. Bean backpack. It’s unclear if it’s an affirmation or a command. But either way, Guttentag is having a good day and wants everyone else to have one, too. She’s not really supposed to be here right now. At least, on June 12, 2000, when her van was hit by a tractor trailer, no one thought she would be here...
