John McCain was not quite 2 years old when his parents despaired of managing his tantrums; he would go into a "mad frenzy," he says, holding his breath until he passed out and fell to the floor. A Navy doctor offered a prescription: whenever McCain erupted, his mother would shout to his father, "Get the water!" Then his parents would fill a bathtub with cold water and drop their fully clothed son in. "Eventually," McCain recalls in his memoirs, "I achieved a satisfactory (if only temporary) control over my emotions...
...sterilized by statistics or ignored altogether. Each story reveals a government and culture that, like so many other nations, still denies HIV's impact. Yet even with its pages filled with so much injustice and pain, the book also contains its fair share of triumphant moments.

"If a baby is going to be alive at his abortion, there should be a second physician on hand," Stanek said...
...Barack Obama had his way, I wouldn't be here." This claim is misleading, because Jessen was deemed viable after she was born following an abortion procedure. In an interview with TIME, Stanek argued that the ad should still be seen as accurate, since it is possible that a doctor could have made a different decision. "It is more of a hypothetical," she said. "Obama would have agreed with the abortionist if the abortionist so chose to have her be claimed nonviable...
