...would unfiltered coffee be more dangerous than filtered? A leading suspect is a group of substances called diterpenes, found widely in nature--and in coffee beans. Diterpenes are known to raise homocysteine levels, and the paper filters used in coffee machines are usually fine enough to catch them. Some coffee roasters prepare their beans with processes that remove some of the offending diterpenes. Check with your favorite brewer for details...
HEART STOPPER It's enough to give you heartburn. Just two years after the FDA required a stronger warning label on the heartburn drug Propulsid, the agency reports that the popular prescription--more than 30 million Rxs have been filled since its introduction in 1993--has been linked to 70 deaths and more than 200 episodes of irregular heartbeat. Patients are advised to use the drug only as a last resort. And before they do, doctors should perform an electrocardiogram to check for ticker trouble...
...seems. Margin debt has increased an alarming 62% over the past year. Is this the canary in the coal mine? Such thoughts are on the mind of Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan, who openly expressed worry about the increase--or at least said he was "thinking" about it, which is enough to worry the rest of us.

Domingo isn't quite high-strung enough for Mahler's angst-ridden emotional world, but he makes an impassioned impression all the same, and though he no longer has the brilliance and heft needed to sail effortlessly above the gigantic orchestra, who does? Esa-Pekka Salonen and the Los Angeles Philharmonic provide solid support. A+ for effort...
...postmodern dance has an opening, but this premiere at the New York City Ballet fails to catch fire. Tharp's twitchy, fidgety signature moves are swamped by Beethoven's overwhelming dance rhythms. Making a ballet to the Seventh Symphony, it seems, is like turning Hamlet into an opera: good enough just isn't good enough...
