...After three years, Intellipedia is humming. It operates in three spheres: unclassified, secret and top secret, with top secret being the most active, boasting 439,387 pages and 57,248 user accounts. Intellipedia is largely managed by volunteers and patrolled by "shepherds" who keep track of individual pages in their areas of expertise.

I knew this would be extremely difficult. But I don't give up on these things. I also think the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is of fundamental importance to the whole struggle going on in the Islamic world. That isn't to say that its cause is the [Israeli-Palestinian] conflict, but its resolution would be a major part to solving...
...Center for AIDS/STD Control and Prevention at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, says new programs are being developed, but that the government still relies heavily on members of the gay community to educate themselves. Sex workers also lack access to programs and materials they need to keep themselves safe. According to a November 2008 Beijing municipal report, of the 90,000 female sex workers in the capital, only 46.5 percent reported using condoms.
