...happened again on Saturday when researchers learned that the first ever successful AIDS vaccine turned out not to be the triumph they had originally hoped. In September, scientists from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the U.S. Army announced the results of an AIDS-vaccine study in Thailand involving more than 16,000 volunteers. The data showed that the new vaccine had protected 31% of inoculated participants from becoming infected with HIV. But a closer look at a subset of the study's volunteers now reveals that the vaccine in fact protected only 26% of the people who received...

Indeed, Polanski’s victim, Samantha Geimer, has publicly stated that she has come to terms with her abuse and does not wish to see the case pursued...

...scoreless innings in his season debut. He and two friends were killed after their car was hit by a van that ran a red light. The team paid tribute to Adenhart when they clinched their division championship last week. But the team was also aware of another, quieter triumph, perhaps a miracle. Indeed, Jon Wilhite, the fourth person in Adenhart's car, shouldn't be alive. The violent collision ripped his skull from his spine, resulting in what doctors call internal decapitation. It is almost always fatal. When Wilhite arrived at the hospital after the savage accident, X-rays...
