Lastly, Brown (4-20-3, 2-15-3) finished the weekend with a loss against Rensselaer and a heartening tie against Union. Sophomore defender Paul Esdale and freshman forward Nick Ringstad scored goals for the Bears and Brown made an attempt to tie up the game with an extra man when they took goaltender Yann Danis out of the game, only to watch the Engineers score an empty-net goal...
...some students are frustrated at having to take the unit tests just to make sure they get the extra points, when they feel like they are already keeping up with the material, and others feel like the unit tests are actually counterproductive...
...experimenting on humans today. Even after four years of practice with animal cloning, the failure rate is still overwhelming: 98% of embryos never implant or die off during gestation or soon after birth. Animals that survive can be nearly twice as big at birth as is normal, or have extra-large organs or heart trouble or poor immune systems. Dolly's "mother" was six years old when she was cloned. That may explain why Dolly's cells show signs of being older than they actually are?scientists joked that she was really a sheep in lamb's clothing. This deviation...

Download it (from Aimster.com) and you'll get an unseen extra layer to your buddy list, called a Buddyizer. This means that theoretically you can trade your MP3s with some 60 million "buddies." Hey, presto: an instant Napster-size network. As a bonus, Aimster currently searches Napster as well. "People already have thousands of MP3 files on AOL. All we did was add a search function," says Johnny Deep (his real name), 43, a software engineer...
