"We met with physicians, consumer groups and in this case faith-based organizations, to talk about what the disease looks like, what the vaccine does; it was part of a broad communications strategy." Merck also launched an ad campaign, "Tell Someone," that aims to teach viewers about the prevalence of HPV and its link to cervical cancer...
...course this breeds insularity and exclusivity; the upside is intensity. Classes are small, teaching is often passionate, the boys work hard - 97 out of a class of 263 were offered places at Oxford or Cambridge last year, and 110 are studying Chinese.

...Erecting a monument to one of history?s most reviled figures is only part of Junker's dream. In doing so, he also wants to teach the truth as he sees it: that Hitler did not start World War II and did not despise other races; that the Nazi regime was not a stifling dictatorship; and that there was no extermination of the Jews. If anyone suffered, Junker says, it was the Germans and the rest of Nazi Europe...
