...rather timid feature piece with a different byline. It opened by recounting the frustrations of a desperate patient. By Tuesday afternoon, Entremed's stock had faded another six points to under 45. Just 48 hours after it was first floated, a cancer cure is not much closer to reality -- unless, of course, you're a mouse...

...back the women's movement 50 years. Now any boss can ask a woman to come into his office, close the door, unzip his pants and ask her to perform oral sex. Even if she refuses and leaves, she can no longer claim outrage in a court of law. Unless this ruling is reversed, women in the workplace had better not go into the boss's office without a witness.
