HPV vaccine for women and men

Preventing cancer in thousands of Americans every year is a good thing, right? When one examines the case of the new HPV vaccine in the United States, the unexpected answer appears to be, "not yet, maybe later." If you are unlucky enough to be a woman over the age of 26 or even unluckier to be a man, you are currently most likely missing out on getting this vaccine.

Where have the Michael Jordans gone?

Everyone grew up with a childhood sports hero to look up to. Mine was Michael Jordan.

Madness

I considered writing about something important this week. I thought about describing how giving the Nobel Peace Prize to Al Gore and the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (quite a mouthful) all but eliminated the small amount of credibility the once-illustrious award had retained after squandering it on such unworthy recipients as Palestinian terrorist Yasser Arafat in 1994 and the wonderfully vague 2001 prize to the entire organization of the United Nations "for their work for a better organized and more peaceful world." What exactly organization has to do with peace I will let the reader decide.
