DIED. LEON AMES, 90, actor; in Corona del Mar, California. On big screen and small, Ames' warm voice and reassuring manner made him a favorite for roles requiring a paternal touch, from Judy Garland's indulgent turn-of-the century dad in Meet Me in St. Louis (1944) to Kathleen Turner's mystical grandfather in Peggy Sue Got Married (1986), Ames' last screen role. In all, he appeared in more than 100 films. His television work also had a fatherly bent, as in the short-lived series Life with Father and Father of the Bride. His best- known TV role...
...your favorite pianists? -Paul Chow, TorontoI call Vladimir Horowitz "the Magician." He made everything so simple, it was like magic. When Arthur Rubinstein plays, he brings his heart out to you.

Scientists have hypothesized other health consequences of climate change before, some better supported by evidence than others: heat waves that kill, new breeding grounds for mosquitoes that spread deadly malaria or dengue fever, and stagnant warm air pockets that trap disease-causing smog. But in this study, says lead researcher Tom Brikowski, he and his colleagues are pretty sure they've traced a direct relationship between human health and temperature - no mosquitoes or air pollution are needed to make the link. Even in the belt region where kidney stones are common and populations have adjusted their lifestyles to the heat...
