...opened The Crimson on December 7, 1996, you would have discovered a news feature about a student trying to find room in his schedule to get to Boston for an HIV test. At that time, Harvard did not offer anonymous HIV testing, so students looking for anonymity while staying in control of their health were sent packing. It’s rare that health care goes backward, but University Health Services’s recent decision to end anonymous testing (instituted in 1996) is one of those times. Effective August 1, only confidential testing will be provided by UHS, meaning...
...bear health-care costs that, while they might seem high in places like New York City (which is second behind Miami in the Milliman Index), are usually more in line with what residents can afford and require relatively less out-of-pocket contributions. Locales like Miami, by contrast, often offer residents "less access to [health] benefits packages with lower cost-sharing," says Kathleen Stoll, deputy executive director of Families USA in Washington.

...lange of exotic themes - part Bedouin, part African, with a hint of East Asia and 19th century colonial style. Safari game drives allow close encounters with a host of beautiful beasts (just don't expect Tsavo or Kruger), and multiple soft-adventure activities are also on offer, from fascinating wadi walks to mountain-biking, kayaking through mangrove lagoons and snorkeling with coral-reef denizens - you'll probably swim with turtles and if you're lucky even glimpse the rare dugong. This is an imaginative alternative to the usual formulaic resort. Book yourself some Arabian nights...
Scrawled on whatever material he could find, the memoirs offer valuable insight into the history and thinking of kingpins even as Mexico suffers unprecedented levels of drug-related bloodshed. Félix Gallardo, now 63 and in poor health, does not deny that he trafficked cocaine and heroin into the United States. Indeed, in one passage, he nostalgically referred to himself as one of the "old capos." However, he also pointed a finger at Mexican politicians for failing to provide for the poor, making them turn to crime. He also reiterated the point - already conceded by the Mexican government - that...
...right-wing consensus at odds with such fundamentals of the peace process as Palestinian statehood, freezing and evacuating West Bank settlements, and sharing Jerusalem. But even when Israel was led by the centrist Ehud Olmert, Abbas reportedly rejected the best peace deal the Israeli leader was able to offer during last year's talks about talks - an offer that reportedly conceded more territory to the Palestinian state than the deal turned down by Yasser Arafat at Camp David. So the gulf between Israel's best offer and the bottom line of the most moderate Palestinian leadership appears...
