((So far it appears the U.S. attack on Iraq has done little to intimidate Saddam Hussein, and the White House spent the day defending its air and sea missile assault with little to show for it. There is no sign Saddam's troops are backing down after invading Kurdish safe areas over the weekend. President Clinton justified the attack, saying Saddam presents a clear and present danger to U.S. interests. In addition to firing 27 cruise missiles, the administration has also extended the southern no-fly zone, mostly to protect oil-rich U-S allies to the south. The unilateral U-S action will not include forcing the expulsion of Iraqi troops from the north, but... WE MUST MAKE IT CLEAR THE RECKLESS ACTS HAVE CONSEQUENCES OR THOSE ACTS WILL INCREASE. Among the consequences: the United Nations has suspended a plan to allow Iraq to export oil in exchange for food and medical supplies. Congressional reaction is muted but mostly positive. But the thirst for more blood from Saddam's military machine may not be satisfied. SEN. RICHARD LUGAR/R-IN: HE PROBES WHENEVER HE WANTS TO AND WE SPEND TENS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. WE OUGHT TO TRY TO ELIMINATE THE ELEMENTS THAT GIVE HIM THE ABILITY TO TWEEK THE WORLD AT HIS WILL. For his part, Saddam says he will no longer recognize the no-fly zones at all, and he is urging his soldiers to fight back.))

(( A study in this month's journal "Nature Genetics" says researchers are zeroing on a gene that may be linked to the most common form of diabetes.
As of yet, scientists haven't definitively identified any genes connected to type-two diabetes....which affects 15-million Americans, usually those older than 40.
In another study in "Nature Genetics", scientists are reporting more evidence about what causes and protects people from skin cancer.
They say once again they have found that a gene called "patched" acts to suppress tumors....but when that gene is damaged...the protection is lost, and cancer forms.
Sunlight is one known cause of the that gene damage.
At least three-quarters of a million Americans suffer from skin cancer each year.
And British researchers at the Institute of Cancer Research say a gene linked to breast cancer may also be connected to a common form of leukemia that strikes people over 50.
They claim 80-percent of patients with so-called "C-L-L"....were missing the brca-two gene...already believed to be involved in inherited forms of breast cancer.))

About 20-percent of those cases will be in women between the ages of 40 to 49.

And there's been a great deal of debate over whether women UNDER age 50 should have mammograms.
But the debate is usually based on studies concerning large populations-- and what is financially feasible for society.
Many doctors now recommend women worry about themselves, and for a lot of women under 50, that means getting a regular mammogram.
Still, it is often difficult finding cancer in younger women, because many have dense breast tissue, making it harder to pick out small tumors.
