My mother’s hands are deep
in cabbage leaves, her sleeves pushed up past her elbows, as she sifts through
water, salt, and vegetable. Beneath her nails are saffron flakes of red pepper
powder. My mother wears an apron; under it her stomach is full and round. The
apron is blue with red borders. I remember she bought it one day at Woodward’s
on sale.
I sit at the kitchen table beneath a peach-painted
ceiling and a chandelier with oversized plastic teardrops. Every now then I get
up and walk over to the counter, peer into the yellow tub, watch, pretend to
watch, and then sit down again. Across from me, the little knick-knacks my
mother loves so much--ceramic flowers, Delfts-blue miniature vases, a figurine
forever windblown -- are arranged carefully upon the window sill.
My mother’s hands are thin-skinned, pale, spotted and freckled with age
and sun. The nails are thick, almost yellow. A few strands of hai

Once found almost entirely
in the western United States and in Asia, dinosaur fossils are now being
discovered on all seven continents. A host of new revelations emerged in 1998
that promise to reshape scientists’ views of dinosaurs, including what they
looked like and when and where they lived.
It is doubtful that
Tyrannosaurus Rex had lips or that Triceratops had cheeks, says Lawrence Witmer,
an assistant professor of anatomy at Ohio University in Athens, Ohio. Witmer was
a leading researcher for a study on dinosaur anatomy that was presented at the
annual meeting of the Society for Vertebrate Paleontology, which concluded on
October 3 in Snowbird, Utah.
Witmer’s study reached its
conclusions by using high-tech computerized axial to mograply (CT or CAT) scans
along with comparative anatomy studies. For example, the theory that Triecratops
and similar dinosaur species had cheeks was based on past compa

At 5:30 in the morning we
are deep in a dark forest on an island in the midddle of the Panama Canal. We’ve
been out walking for only 15 minutes, but I’m already soaked in sweat.
As a colleague and I plod along, my head lamp picks out the occasional
trail marker, but mainly the light seems to operate as a major local landmark
for insects. Several mosquitoes have already discovered the delights of the soft
parts of my ears, while others are slowly working their way between my seeks and
legs to be discovered later after much scratching. Suddenly a deranged roaring
and barking starts 25m above my head and builds chaotically and intensity before
slowly quieting after several minutes. Similar mad choruses respond from other
areas of the forest. Hearing the dawn cacophony of howler monkeys always give me
a deep sense of pleasure -- the joy of being back in the tropics. It may be a
hot, humid place where insects, pla

Federal efforts to aid
minority businesses began in the 1960’s when the Small Business Administration
(SBA) began making federally guaranteed loans and government-sponsored
management and technical assistance available to minority business enterprises.
While this program enabled many minority entrepreneurs to form new businesses,
the results were disappointing, since managerial inexperience, unfavorable
locations, and capital shortages led to high failures rates. Even 15 years after
the program was implemented, minority business, receipts were not quite two
percent of the national economy’s total receipts.
Recently
federal policymakers have adopted an approach intended to accelerate development
of the minority business sector by moving away from directly aiding small
minority enterprises and toward supporting larger, growth-oriented minority
firms through intermediary companies. In this approach, large corpor

SANTEE, CALIF -- When news
broke about the mayhem and killing at Santana High School, Charles Williams
frantically dashed to the school to make sure his 15-year-old son wasn’t hurt.
As he searched the chaotic tableau of sobbing teens and panicked parents,
Williams called a girl, "Do you know where Andy is " Her quiet reply: "With the
cops."
Until that moment, Williams apparently had no idea what
his son, Charles Andrew, had planned to that morning when he left their small
apartment in this town northeast of San Digeo. But, sadly, others had a clue.
The teen had bragged to several friends and at least one adult, 29-year-old
Chris Reynolds, about his scheme to shoot his classmates. Some of his friends
thought it was simply bluster from a kid. Yet two of them were so concerned that
they patted Williams down that morning. They didn’t go far enough to find his
father’s 22-caliber, long-barrel revolver in Wil

[简答题]I have forgotten whether the song of the cricket be or not as early a token of autumn’s approach as any other -- that song which may be called an audible stillness; for though very loud and heard after, yet the mind does not take note of it as a sound, so completely is its individual existence merged among the accompanying characteristics of the season. Alas for the pleasant summer time! In August the grass is still verdant on the hills and in the valleys; the foliage of the trees is as dense as ever, and as green; the flowers gleam forth in richer abundance along the margin of the river, and by the stone walls, and deep among the woods; the days too, are as fervid now as they were a month ago; and yet in every breath of wind and in every beam of sunshine we hear the whispered farewell and behold the parting smile of a dear friend. There is a coolness amid and the heat, a mildness in the blazing noon. Not a breeze can stir but it thrills us with the breath of autunm. A pensive glory is
