Trials Are Halted on a Gene Therapy. Officials in the U.S. and France have suspended four experiments because the treatment may have given a child a leukemia-like illness. By Sheryl Gay Stolberg. [New York Times: Health] 11:03:34 AM     Okay, let me be the first one to say that I have never GROWN UP! I am now the proud owner of a Spongebob Squarepants Aquarium and I LOVE IT! Soon to join Spongebob as a character inside the aquarium is Squidward, that marvelous, crabby character! Should be arriving from Amazon.com any day now. It's not very big, but then, I don't want it to be very big - it's holding three little Cardinal Tetra's right now and I might find a little catfish in a few days, after I'm sure the Cardinals will do okay. 10:17:30 AM     I sure don't see much food or health news today! I'll keep watch for something good! In the meantime, I'll post another tasty recipe! This recipe is from a Betty Crocker cookbook. I LOVE catfish!
