...easy to design drugs that choose their targets this efficiently. In fact, it’s so difficult that drug companies have hardly ever tried. They’ve relied instead on trial and error, testing hundreds of potential drugs in animals to find a few that actually cure without killing. But these molecular crapshoots are terribly wasteful, which is why drug designers are today turning to a computer science known as bioinformatics to fuel their endless quest for newer drugs and better targets...
Hussein's most egregious error, however, is his inflammatory assertion that American support for Israel stems from a racist understanding of Middle East ethnicity that "dehumanizes" the Palestinian people. This false accusation is an insult to all of us who have suffered from racism and other forms of ethnic and religious hatred in our nation. Americans support Israel for a number of different reasons.

...election must end sometime. Even with a recount and an extended deadline, whoever came out on top was doomed to be haunted by legitimacy doubts for the next four years. The race was so close that it was within the margin of error of any vote-counting method, leading Agassiz Professor of Zoology Stephen Jay Gould to suggest that the election should be decided by a simple flip of a coin...
...permit themselves to be a de facto minor league operation for the big clubs, developing talent until they become available free agents. Yes, it's possible for a team like Oakland to compete, but GM Billy Beane has been nothing short of brilliant, and he has no room for error. How much will the pitchers he's devloped like Barry Zito be worth on the open market? Denny Neagle just got $10 million per year. Hell, Darren Dreifort, who in my estimation is nothing better than a third starter, just commanded $11 million...
...allow institutions the chance to veto applicants with substantial disciplinary records or whose academic and extracurricular credentials are so lacking that their application would prove an embarrassment for all involved. Outside of this criterion, it seems unreasonable for Harvard to exclude anyone, especially when one considers the inadequate and error-prone endorsement system now in place as well as the serendipitous nature of the Rhodes selection process...
