...Friday's newspapers treated the event as if it were a soccer cup final. "What is Havel's Play Like?" runs a bold-type headline followed by five stars in Lidove Noviny, a daily not in the habit of running arts stories on its front pages. The business daily Hospodarske Noviny called the play the "theatrical event of the season" . "Sure, the fame of the author ? plays a role but it is an extraordinary experience nonetheless...
...evil. On ticket-buying websites, extra fees are often not quoted in the initial price displayed to customers - only later, as they're completing their purchase. Given the advantage airlines gain by scoring better in online searches, "a price increase is a far riskier decision than going with this type of fee," says Larry Compeau, a marketing professor at Clarkson University. As Seaney puts it: "Airlines want to make it harder for consumers to compare apples to apples...
...levels of vaccine-based mercury twice as high as the amount the epa considers safe in a diet that includes fish. By the end of that year, thimerosal-free formulations of the five inoculations that included it-hepatitis B, diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis and some versions of Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib)-had replaced the older versions. The result was a drop in mercury exposure in fully immunized 6-month-old babies from 187.5 micrograms to just trace amounts still found in some flu vaccines. Yet there's been no effect on autism rates. In the seven years since...
...biopsy of a suspicious growth in the 76-year-old senator's left parietal lobe revealed a malignant glioma, the most common type of brain tumor. It is diagnosed in some 25,000 Americans a year, and in 30% to 40% of cases, the first sign of the disease is a seizure - as was the case with Kennedy, who has been hospitalized since the weekend, but has not suffered another seizure. "Decisions regarding the best course of treatment for Senator Kennedy will be determined after further testing analysis," the senator's doctors said Tuesday in a statement. "He remains...
Kennedy's prognosis depends on several factors. Most critical is the type of glioma. Glioblastomas are the most aggressive and common type, and only 3% of patients diagnosed with these tumors generally survive five years after diagnosis. Patients with slower-growing tumors have a 25% chance of surviving to five years. It's not clear yet what kind of tumor the senator has, or which treatment option he will follow - the standard therapy for glioma usually involves surgery to remove the malignant lesion, followed by chemotherapy and radiation...
