Public-health experts are now fighting back with a new online campaign. On June 11, New York University, Public Health Solutions (a New York-based nonprofit) and a filmmaker named Todd Ahlberg launched a website called hivbigdeal.org. It features two online short films designed to remind gay men that - duh - HIV is still deadly, and that we must talk about it in the bedroom, during those awkward moments before sex. The films are called The Morning After and The Test, and I can't stop thinking about them. A disclaimer: while the shorts are smartly directed, they are poorly acted...
Florida's famously feckless electoral system usually deserves the ridicule it gets. But not this time. Instead of the typical jokes about Flori-duh, the Sunshine State debacle currently gripping the Democratic Party has evoked reminders of the Dean Scream - the notorious petulance of Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairman Howard Dean.

By leapfrogging ahead of the Feb. 5 Super Tuesday contests, the Sunshine State has landed in a larger national spotlight - and so has its irrepressibly sunny governor...
...rally Gulf Arabs into an anti-Iran bloc bent on further isolating Tehran diplomatically and economically, without giving up the option of a military attack on Iran, on the grounds that Iran remains a dire threat to regional security. To such logic, Gulf leaders are tempted to reply, "Duh, it was your ousting of Saddam Hussein's regime that enabled Iran to expand its influence in the first place." Arabs would never want Washington to get too cozy with Tehran. But they've had enough Texas gunslinging...
