...review is the most comprehensive analysis of the subject to date. It encompasses data from 15 studies conducted in seven countries, involving more than 53,000 men, most of whom were Caucasian and approximately half of whom were circumcised. The authors concluded that being circumcised reduced a man's risk of acquiring H.I.V. by 14%. That finding was statistically nonsignificant, but the authors say it should be regarded as a launching point for future trials. "This study gives us a more complete picture than we've ever had before," says Gregorio Millett, the study's lead author and a senior...

In his most recent book, “Real Education,” Charles Murray, a co-author of the controversial bestseller “The Bell Curve,” points out that nearly all of the most notable members of elite professions (which typically pay higher than blue-collar jobs) have IQ levels of 120 or above...

Corsi was detained for about 4 1/2 hours before he was expelled. Immigration officials said the author did not have a proper permit to work in Kenya. But Corsi's publicist, Tim Bueler, told TIME that they were assured their visas and passports were in order. Corsi said he had been upfront about his intentions when he arrived. According to Corsi and Bueler, the author was told that the government had misplaced their immigration cards, which visitors fill out upon arrival at the Nairobi airport. "Dr. Corsi can return to Kenya anytime," said Bueler. "They said our passports were...
