Within a few weeks, I received my first results, from DNA Tribes. As I had guessed, the genetic indicators showed both European and American Indian roots. But No. 1 on the list of places I was supposed to be from was--to my great surprise --sub-Saharan Africa. What's more, No. 1 on the list of the top 10 regional populations with which I was most likely to share a piece of genetic code was Belorussia, followed closely by southeast Poland and Mozambique...
...course, ethnic heritage forms only part of the identity of any of these successful N.S.W. political "m-aaa-tes", most of whom were incubated in trade unions and the party's Sussex Street hatchery in Sydney.

...medications they seek, but 4.7 million still need them. Our current efforts are simply insufficient. It is not enough to share precious intellectual property rights. We need to be willing to aggressively counteract AIDS with all the ammunition our trillion-dollar pharmaceuticals can provide.Our world is one divided and sub-divided by arbitrary lines drawn in the sand. These lines make it easy for us to sleep at night, far from the Central Hospital, where patients rot in their own filth and the stale Saharan summer heat. Regardless, a simple truth remains: our drug companies are preventing these sick...
