That ought to be very good news, but in a disturbing echo of the earliest days of the epidemic, many hospitals and other institutions are clearly unprepared for a sudden influx of a new population of HIV patients: middle-aged and even elderly people surviving with the disease into their later decades. Nearly 27% of people living with AIDS in the U.S. are 50 or older--a proportion that is expected to increase. This vanguard group must confront the ordinary ailments of age complicated by the extraordinary ferocity of the AIDS virus...
...stronghold in south Beirut, the fighters in black are back in force after two weeks of hiding in bunkers. They patrol the neighborhood on scooters like a mini-motocross militia, separating the would-be looters from families who have returned to inspect the damage.

Put another way, even as history's odometer this season rolls up the Interstates' 50th anniversary, these roads still take us on a multi-lane tour of our murkiest feelings about home and travel, the near and the distant, the here...
...issues, including raising the minimum wage and increasing student loans, which the leaders believe will appeal to voters concerned about values. Emanuel's candidates will sign on to a "Six in '06" list of issues with a populist theme. Dean, who says the party should appeal to Evangelicals, will echo those working-class appeals this fall with a push on values. And Pelosi has promised that bills along those lines will be the first the House would take up if Democrats won a majority...
