...which kill about a third of patients, are so dangerous that "they can't be justified ethically" in anything other than desperate situations like late-stage leukemia. Nor is it clear that Huetter's claim to have cured his patient is yet justified. HIV has a frustrating ability to hide in hard-to-detect "reservoir" cells in various parts of the body. Current antiviral drugs, for example, can lower a patient's "viral load" to the point that HIV is undetectable in his or her bloodstream.

...seems clear that Palin tried to win the election by seducing the American public and playing up her feminine assets. Winking during the debate and blowing kisses at her rallies, Palin certainly did not shy away from her femininity. And while female candidates should not have to hide from their gender, as Clinton arguably attempted to do, it hardly seems appropriate that they should flirt their way into the White House, either...
