I was taken to the emergency room a few weeks ago. Ambulance bill: $959. Hospital bill: $13,830. Follow-up with a personal physician and specialist: $463. Total: $15,252 for a six-hour, non-life-threatening situation that was diagnosed incorrectly in the emergency room. No wonder the country is in trouble.

We cannot take anyone's word for it that the interrogations saved lives; someone objective needs to take a good hard look at the facts. (Watch TIME's video on the risks of chatter...
...successfully treat type 1 diabetes patients with their own stem cells. The group first reported its initial achievement in 2007, with 15 type 1 diabetes patients who received their own stem cells and no longer needed insulin to control their blood sugar levels. In the new study, a follow-up of their previous work, Voltarelli and his colleagues detailed the same success with an additional eight patients, and also confirmed that in the majority of them, the stem cell transplant led to an appreciable repopulation of functioning insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas...
