  1. Children's organic clothing: Fashions for a small planet

    When my son was born three years ago, we received an olive green romper embroidered with a tiny red elephant, an outfit that came from a children's boutique specializing in a line of handmade, local and eco-friendly clothing and toys. No matter how many times we washed it, the cotton remained soft and vibrant — and the romper stayed that way through wearings by two friends' babies.

  3. AIDS drugs restore Africans' life expectancy

    In the United States and Europe, antiretroviral drugs have changed HIV infection from an early death sentence to a lifelong but manageable condition. Many international philanthropies have contended that these medications could do the same in poor countries, and have aggressively negotiated lower costs to put them within reach of those in the developing world, where HIV infection rates are highest. But given the challenges to health and hygiene in such countries, it's not been clear that antiretroviral therapy would reverse the shortened life expectancies of the HIV-infected there as they have in the developed world.

    It started like many other choir performances, the smooth voices blending together and filling the room. But soon enough the energy was pumping through the area as the more than a dozen soon-to-be university students started moving in sync, kicking their feet and waving their arms to the beat of the drums.
