...Vice Provost for International Affairs Jorge I. Dominguez, have concluded that as HMI’s focus shifted from medical education to health care delivery, the organization betrayed the University’s “core mission” and ventured too far in to the lucrative realm of management consulting. We disagree. Harvard Medical International, far from being a cash cow with debased values prostituting Harvard’s good name overseas, has an important and beneficial role to play at Harvard Medical School. HMI was founded in the early 1990s to accomplish two key objectives: raise funds...
...album “American Gangster.” Hosted by Hova’s ex-partner in crime, Damon Dash, the mixtape represents a continuation of the beef between the two hip-hop moguls with Jim Jones serving as Dame’s proxy.

The Journal of the American Medical Association in 1978 published a paper on “orbitofacial wounds” caused by umbrella tips, warning that these injuries often go “unrecognized” and stressing...
...essential public issue in many countries is cultural tension. The Archbishop should be congratulated for highlighting the potential of plurality that Britain has in the realm of law and the more amorphous world of “values.” Contentious remarks will always induce a storm of media attention and differing reactions. Williams’ remarks, though, reflected a confidence in the potential of his country’s multicultural identity, and should be considered as such...
