...Tell me about your heroine, Kinsey Milhone. What is she like? I claim she is a loner, and she is to a certain extent. She's perfectly happy in her own company. She says at one point, "I am not half of something looking for the other half." She's been married and divorced twice. She also says, "I keep my guard up along with my underpants." So she's careful about sexual connections with guys because to her it represents a hazard. She likes working for herself. She's persistent. She's curious. She's not above breaking...

A run early into the second half put Harvard up by seven, but Northeastern fought back, evening the score at 59 with just under seven minutes left in regulation. A final layup by Lippert, off of an assist from Berry, in the waning seconds of the half tied the game at 65, forcing overtime...
...make matters worse, Uganda's ostrich-like denials on homosexuality seem to be tolerated by international donors such as Washington and the U.N. Even in 2009 - a year when the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, known as PEPFAR, gave $285 million for HIV and AIDS programs in Uganda - just one program targeting "men who have sex with men" has been allowed to register with the government, a prerequisite for access to international funding. The program, the Most at Risk Populations Network, received just $5,000. "We used to print educational materials, but it was very expensive," Peter...
