...here's what you really need to know. Yes, the latest study conducted by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and published in the Journal of the American Medical Association found that MRSA is more prevalent than any previous estimates had suggested. In the CDC's survey of nine states in 2005, there were 32 cases of MRSA infection for every 100,000 people. (By comparison, in that same year, the incidence of invasive pneumonia or flu infections ranged from less than one to 14 cases per 100,000 people.) Extrapolating from these states' statistics, the researchers estimated that there...
...Baghdad Blues is his latest homage to the country's traumatized capital, though this discomfiting collection of poems is much less political than the film. You won't find the expected vilification of fiends like Saddam and Chemical Ali. In a parenthetical note to "A Prisoner's Song," Antoon explains that the poem's title refers to POWs on both sides of the Iran-Iraq war.

...This dispute is just the latest chapter in a troubled program begun in 1981 to provide a troop transport for all four military services; the Army dropped out two years later for cost reasons, and then-Defense Secretary Dick Cheney, also citing cost, failed to kill it over objections from Congress - and the Marines. The V-22, built by Bell Helicopter and the Boeing Co., was deemed ideal for carrying troops because it can take off and land like a helicopter, then tilt its engines and rotors forward to fly like a turboprop airplane. After three fatal crashes, numerous delays...
While students hoping to hear the quirky melodies of indie chanteuse Regina Spektor may have been taken for the ride as part of the Lampoon’s latest antic, it was Spektor herself—who emerged from the Castle on an eight-person bicycle—who was taken, literally, on the wildest ride of all. Friday’s event, advertised as a “presentation” to students over e-mail lists, featured a series of brief appearances by singer-songwriter Spektor before a crowd of students eager to hear her perform...
...latest album, “T.I. vs. T.I.P.,” pitsIn the video for “Hurt,” T.I. echoes one of your mom’s favorite sayings—it’s all fun and games until someone gets hurt. T.I.’s game might elicit a new level of parental disapproval, since it looks like it may end in gunshot wounds. The gritty, choppy video, shot in black and white, relies on close-up shots and attempts to create a hostile T.I. that not even a mother could love...
