...Sloan's view is catching on. Few people think of religion as an alternative to medicine. The frontline tools of an emergency room will always be splints and sutures, not prayers - and well-applied medicine along with smart prevention will always be the best ways to stay well. Still, if the U.S.'s expanding health-care emergency has taught us anything, it's that we can't afford to be choosy about where we look for answers. Doctors, patients and pastors battling disease already know that help comes in a whole lot of forms. It's the result...
Karzai has frequently lashed out at the international community for supporting the warlords, even as he too tries to keep them on his side. "The Afghan point of view is, Cut relations, stop backing them," he said in an interview last year. "Stop giving them contracts, stop arming them, and stop using them as political tools."

PIU's version operates on the intriguing premise that intra-office communication improves when employees barrel down a 20-ft. (about 6 m) slide or whack one another with inflatable jousting bats...
...team-building activities: "Leading the Crowd Playfully" (to break the ice), "Tag Team Climbing" (to improve cooperation) and "Kneeling Basketball" (to learn to deal with downsizing, perhaps?). But will morale really improve if the 9-to-5 crowd spends a little time bouncing around--in socks, in full view of the boss...
