  6. Jerome Horwitz dies at 93; developed potent anti-AIDS drug AZT

    Jerome Horwitz, a medical researcher at Wayne State University in Detroit, had spent more than a decade developing a drug he hoped would work against cancer. But the compound failed to help the lab mice he tested it on, so in 1970 he &quot;dumped it on the junk pile," wrote up his disappointing findings and moved on. He didn't bother applying for a patent.

  8. Finding potential in vacant city lots

    There's nothing like a weedy, littered-filled lot or a vacant building to bring down a neighborhood. That is, until a community comes together and finds a creative use for the space, holding its place until a more permanent solution comes along.

  9. Marathon swimmers were mere minnows against mighty Lake Michigan

    Joe Griffith thought he could get the better of Lake Michigan. In the late 1950s, the lifeguard tried four times to swim the 38 miles from Chicago to Michigan City, Ind. Through the years, he faced stomach cramps, indigestion, 15-foot waves, navigation errors, heavy fog, a seiche, multiple rainstorms and relentless currents before the lake spit him out for good. From his hospital bed after that fourth attempt, he said, &quot;I'll never talk about crossing the lake again."
