...black blacks, consumes less power than a similarly sized TV and has the widest color gamut of any display ever made," he said. The reds, he noted, were a case in point. Put the LaserVue alongside Dorfman's lcd, and his reds would look orange. Indeed, the LaserVue comes closer than any TV before it to reproducing the colors one sees in a film in a movie theater. Mitsubishi, which has a lock on the technology so far, is working on a 73-in. (185 cm) LaserVue. Merson said prices (and screen sizes) would doubtless diminish over time...
Circumcision is believed to lower H.I.V. transmission in several ways. The inner surface of the foreskin is rich with cells that are more vulnerable to H.I.V. than cells on other parts of the penis; because they are also closer to the epithelial surface and at higher risk for tears during intercourse, they increase susceptibility to infection. Removal of the foreskin further lowers men's odds of developing genital ulcers (from diseases such as syphilis), which in turn lowers their vulnerability to H.I.V. during intercourse. In theory, circumcision should be protective for all men who participate in insertive sex, including heterosexual...

He signaled to our traveling party silently, and we crept off the narrow path and through the thick tropical forest, hoping for a closer look. Russell Mittermeier, the president of Conservation International (CI) and a renowned primatologist, made the call. Tucked inside a hollow tree trunk were two greater bamboo lemurs, each the length of a forearm, staring back at us with orange eyes. We grabbed our cameras and began snapping. It was a rare...
...Mayfair - with its bespoke tailors, high-end jewelers and Michelin-starred restaurants - for a gritty stretch of road between Battersea and Vauxhall, known for, among other things, its bus station, a large supermarket and one of London's busiest gay saunas. The new location will, however, place the embassy closer to the British parliament at Westminster, and is within walking distance from the headquarters of MI6, Britain's secret intelligence service...
