...Health Alliance’s operations that will not be touched is the Integrated Clerkship program, the hospital-training program launched in 2004 as part of the Harvard Medical School curriculum reform, according to Judith Klickstein, one of the organization’s senior vice presidents...
...quite surprised when I heard McCain's choice for Vice President.

The goal that enables every child to imagine being vice president without fear of being called a cold, power-driven harpy, or criticized for daring to want the job after giving birth to five children...
