...Some caretakers intentionally kept their distance from the soldiers to maintain their morale. Captain Kathleen Yancosek couldn't get close enough. A rehabilitation specialist known by everyone simply as "Captain Katie," she was a razor-thin blonde who almost dissolved into tears when she visited her first patient on the ward, a teenage soldier who had lost a leg in Iraq.

Derek Lam is also experimenting with the American sportswear vocabulary, drawing inspiration...
...These represent increases of six and 4.5 years respectively on projections for the current crop of 50-year-olds. So how should we reconcile apparently being in the midst of an unprecedented health crisis with the official prediction that we'll be living longer than ever? Invoking Occam's razor, Campos says "the simplest explanation is that there is no crisis...
