Gamble runs a wishbone offense, but since Penn threw the ball 159 times from the primaily run-oriented formation, it is heralded as the "Multi-Bone." Quarterback Doug Marzonie will direct the Multi-Bone. He passed for 944 yards (59-136) last year and rushed for 165 yards after embarking on his Penn career as a defensive back...

...Phoenix interview as a "snuff movie," where the audience waits eagerly for 13 campers and counsellors to be gorily dispatched. The violence in these low-budget horror films signals a new irreverence for the human body: no longer a vessel for the mind or soul but for blood, bone, pus, intestine and anything else that can come spurting, splashing, oozing, or quivering out; a source of irridescent colors, strange and squashy textures, squishing and crunching sounds. Devising these spectacles takes real showmanship, as evidenced by this excerpt from the horror mag Fangoria's interview with "effects wizard" Tom Savini...

...medical payoff from it may come a bit sooner. In that experiment, a team of scienlists led by Martin Cline and Winston Salser isolated genes that help produce an enzyme resistant to methotrexate, a drug used to treat cancer. The researchers added the genes to cell cultures of mouse bone marrow. The cells that picked up the foreign material, along with cells that had been incubated with genes that do not confer resistance, were then injected into mice whose own bone marrow had been destroyed. To see if the drug-resistance genes were working, the animals were given methotrexate. Tests...
