...Nonetheless, on Wednesday, in front of the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission (FCIC), the bank executives tried to paint a picture that the failures that caused the crisis were missteps by management, sometimes even themselves, but not the result of faulty regulation. Lloyd Blankfein, CEO of Goldman Sachs, told the panel, "After the shocks of recent months and the associated economic pain, there is a natural and appropriate desire for wholesale reform. We should resist a response, however, that is solely designed around protecting us from the 100-year storm." (See the top 10 crooked CEOs...
...study in the journal Science suggests that such thinking is too good to be true. And the problem is drug resistance. Extensive antiretroviral treatment can result in the development and transmission of drug-resistant strains of HIV - something the Lancet study did not consider. In the new study, published on Thursday, a team of scientists from the University of California, the University of Tennessee and the University of Ottawa analyzed data from San Francisco, where antiretroviral drugs have been extensively prescribed to HIV patients since AZT was introduced in 1987. In that city, drug resistance has grown steadily and, according...

As he sang an impromptu song, he quizzed a scantily clad passerby, “Are you from Harvard? …No? You should...
...think that only a small part of those 57% who voted for the ban acted out of pure "extremism and intolerance." The result speaks of a fear not of Islam itself, but of politicized religion. We need to move away from both types of extremism - xenophobia and politicized Islam - and toward real integration. Just as a bad question begs a bad answer, real, sensible dialogue may yield real, sensible solutions. Marlene Ringel, MAINZ, GERMANY...
