...Business, is a master at the ward politics of fixing streetlights, and he speaks with a blunt, blue-collar brio that Chicagoans find endearing. "There's never been a [U.S.] mayor, including his dad, who had this much power," says Paul Green, professor of policy studies at Chicago's Roosevelt University. And he's used it to steer the Windy City into a period of impressive stability, with declining unemployment and splashy growth...
...studies based on blood tests suggest that an additional 500,000 to 1 million Americans are symptomless carriers of the virus. What will happen to this group is the object of much speculation and study. "That's the million-dollar question," says Dr. Michael Lange of St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital in New York City. The guess is that 5% to 10% of people who do not have symptoms but do have antibodies to the virus (meaning they have been exposed) will develop AIDS within five years. There is no way to tell which ones will...
...toll mounts, the sheer cost of caring for patients, ranging from $50,000 to $150,000 each, will overwhelm local resources. By this time next year there will be twice as many cases of AIDS as there are now, says Lange of New York City's St. Luke's-Roosevelt, and "I can already see the whole hospital system coming apart at the edges." Some doctors believe that special medical centers similar to cancer centers may have to be established to care for AIDS and ARC patients.

This may be an exaggeration but not by much?after all, the Iguazu Falls are four times wider than Ontario's most famous body of water. Located amid lush rainforest at the border of Brazil and Argentina, they present one of the best (and most deafening) opportunities you will ever have for an encounter with the unbridled power of nature. The Brazilian side has the panoramas, while the Argentinean side offers proximity to the falls themselves. But viewing from both sides is necessary to complete...
...just that she can be callous and mouthy; as all those he has called "Feminazis" know, Limbaugh has operated in that genre for years. Coulter is more like Clare Boothe Luce, the wife of this magazine's co-founder, who rankled the Roosevelt establishment in the '40s with her take-no-prisoners opposition to the New Deal and communism. In her first House floor speech as a Congresswoman representing the Connecticut district where Coulter later grew up, Luce called Vice President Henry Wallace's liberal approach to postwar foreign policy "globaloney," a proto-Coulterism that shocked many in Washington. Today...
