...secondary sex characteristics or skin color are different is not something one can do with an economic regression. It’s hard to have such awareness; we all make insensitive comments without meaning it, and we all take our privilege for granted at times. We learn how to treat other people with understanding only through experience...
...fight, and leave out the rest. Games are supposed to be fun, but war isn't. "The violence, the combat--we recognize that's the part of the game people want to play," says Major Chris Chambers, deputy director of the America's Army development team.

...comprehensive pain-management centers are so good at providing relief, why aren't more doctors following their lead?

The resulting treatment plan may include pain-killers, but these often have side effects--and because they're usually only tested in adults, they sometimes act unpredictably in kids. Whenever possible, Zeltzer chooses from a broad range...
...back to a pair of reforms that were made in the 1990s and hailed at the time as great innovations. Responding to complaints from AIDS activists and the pharmaceutical industry that drug approval was taking too long, the agency in 1992 announced a "fast track" for vital medications to treat life-threatening diseases. Although they would not be subjected to lengthy safety trials, fast-tracked drugs were supposed to be carefully monitored by their manufacturers after release to the public for any unexpected side effects. It was a compromise that made sense because problems are more likely to surface when...
