We all fall down. This figuratively literal and literally figurative sentence begins Keith Donohue's intriguing, inventive novel "Centuries of June." Of course, this observation's ancient and perennial value, the subject of gazillions of novels, is in the next step -- the getting up.
Draft picks have more value when you're trying to build a team than when you are a perennial winner," says Falcons general manager Rich McKay, who stockpiled picks as he was building the Bucs and then traded away picks once the Bucs became an elite team. "When you're a better team, a perennial playoff team, they lose a little value because they are lower picks by nature, and it's harder for those guys to make the team.

Many of you have seen and drunk Ravenswood "Vintner's Blend" California Zinfandel. At under $10, this perennial best value is a staple at grocery stores, Costco, World Market and even specialty wine shops. Such is the consistent quality and value of this Zinfandel, sourced from throughout California's vineyards, that the Ravenswood name has come to mean dependably rich, succulent, non-wimpy reds. ("No Wimpy Wines" is [Joel Peterson]'s credo.) Vintner's Reserve now produces dose to a million cases per year and is the mainstay that allows for the single-vineyard holdings. Peterson eventually followed in his parents' footsteps, becoming a laboratory scientist, while supplying that sensibility toward his growing love of wine. Applying a scientist's patience and insight, he scoped out some o...
It is 6 a.m. Teenagers groggily get out of bed and prepare for the school day to begin. For most, their school day starts around 7:30. They may have a test or a project to present. But are they really awake? Teens have long complained that they are tired early in the school day, which makes for a perennial debate between administrators, teachers, parents and students. Recent research has shown that the teens' argument has scientific value. These infamous 7:30 or 8 a.m. classes house not a group of alert students but those who exhibit sleep symptoms similar to patients with narcolepsy. This can affect their performance in school and their overall health. So the debate rages on: Should schools change start times and make them more conducive to teenagers' sleep patterns?
Melbourne, Australia, was the hub of the Australasian Information Technology and Information Industry from Feb 8 to Feb 10 as the VALA2006 13th Biennial Conference and Exhibition offered prime exposure to the hottest technological developments around the globe. The conference's theme was Connecting with Users. Among the hot topics were new products, user feedback, and open access models. Established information industry players showed their wares at the exhibition, while others presented highlights of new developments in the conference sessions. The perennial debate about the value of open access publishing was revisited by Paul Mercieca, a lecturer on information management and digital publishing at Melbourne's RMIT University.
The next Closer To Truth series, now in production, focuses on cosmology and fundamental physics, philosophy of cosmology, philosophy of religion, and philosophical theology, and thus I have been interviewing cosmologists, physicists, philosophers, and theologians, asking them, among other questions, "" From their many answers, and from my own night musings, I have constructed a taxonomy5 that I present here as a heuristic to help get our minds around this ultimate and perennial question. 7 To Steven Weinberg, it is peculiar that the calculated value of the vacuum energy of empty space (due to quantum fluctuations in known fields at well-understood energies) is larger than observationally allowed by 1056, and if this were to be cancelled by simply including a suitable...
One of the perennial debates among investors is the growth vs. value debate. Do growth stocks hold the best opportunities for investors? Or are value stocks a better solution? I always enjoy a good debate, but I've remained pretty neutral on this subject. I happen to think that a good portfolio will contain stocks of both kinds.
When your name means "root of the barbarians" (reubarbarum in Latin) you have the right to a little attitude. And maybe you're entitled to grow a few toxic leaves to get the message across: Don't mess with me Rhubarb the Ruffian. Rhubarb hails from northern Asia, where it was favored by the nomadic tribes for its nutritional and medicinal value. A hardy perennial, it is a vegetable in the same family as sorrel and buckwheat.
The Food and Drug Administration is the most ubiquitous U.S. regulatory agency. It oversees products that account for 25 cents of every consumer dollar, with a value of more than $1 trillion annually. The agency is also a perennial favorite target of critics, who variously accuse regulators of being too cozy with the drug industry or of excessive risk-aversion and delay of approvals. Former FDA Commissioner Frank E. Young once characterized his agency as "a slow-moving target that bleeds profusely when hit. Recent events have plunged the beleaguered FDA into turmoil. First, there were claims the labeling of certain antidepressants failed to warn doctors that the drugs triggered suicidal impulses in some adolescents. Then the agency was blind-sided by Chiron Corp.'s inability to provide...
