		<title>The Taxi Driver</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Mr. Thabani Zuma is a professional nurse who works in the Ethembeni HIV Treatment Clinic in a small hospital, tucked away deep in the heart of Zululand, the epicenter of the HIV epidemic in South Africa.

		<title>Home Visits</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I told our hospital vice president I was making home visits with the residents, he gave me a polite smile that said &#8220;how quaint.&#8221; He then told us how the hospital was developing important new things like a joint replacement program, with concierge service and wood paneled patient rooms. They&#8217;re recruiting orthopedists. Like most [...]]]></description>

		<title>Halfway Between Equality and Richville</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There is hunger in Florence, Alabama. You wouldn&#8217;t think so to drive through this pretty little town with its thriving downtown and well-kept historic neighborhoods. At night when the restaurants are buzzing, it&#8217;s hard to find a homeless person on the street. Florence does not have the kind of grocery store where union labor stocks [...]]]></description>

		<title>Overlooked in the Abortion Issue</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The contentious maelstrom around abortions routinely neglects an important aspect, the well-being of those who are pregnant. I was trained at Los Angeles County Hospital in the mid-1960s. In those days, if you decided to terminate your pregnancy and were well-off, your family flew you to Japan or Sweden. If you were poor, you sought [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pakistani Girls’ School and Deluge</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Pakistani Girls&#8217; School Ah, there goes the blackboard again. This time the wind of Cobras has smashed it to smithereens and torn the pencils from our hands. The paper we cling to flaps so loudly the teacher must shout the lesson. Throw acid in our eyes and we&#8217;ll learn Braille box our ears &#8216;til they [...]]]></description>

		<title>Awakening—Falling Less into Trance</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For a few individuals, awakening is a sudden occurrence that lasts either a lifetime or for many years. With most of us, awakening is a gradual process, rewarded by the fruits that leaving a trance state offers us on a moment-to-moment basis.

But I see no need for getting all worked up about limiting our carbon use as proposed by global warming alarmists. We can easily fix the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Point of View and Choice in Conservation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Choices in Ecology Beyond the light of my desk lamp and computer screen, and the hum of my air conditioner, there exists a coastal hardwood swamp of great mystery. Though I live in the old settled East, not far from Providence and Boston, even closer to Fall River and New Bedford, my garden and lawn [...]]]></description>
