		<title>The Shocking Commonness of Abortion: 33% of Women Get an Abortion</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I had always assumed abortions were relatively rare.  I had imagined that people who wanted babies had them, people who didn't want babies used birth control.  And where birth control failed the natural statistical reluctance of the body to get pregnant would keep the numbers of unintended pregnancies low.   Those who didn't use birth [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why Mosquitos Don&#8217;t Spread HIV</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I has always wondered why mosquitoes don't seem to transmit HIV.  If they can spread malaria, why not HIV?  If they've got mouths like a syringe, why isn't being bitten like sharing a needle with the last guy the mosquito drew blood from?
