as partners in the research," said Selby. Findings will be presented
in clear language -- a kind of Consumer Reports approach -- so
that patients and doctors can easily draw on them to make decisions."Our
goal, our hope, is that over time, by involving patients in research,
two things will happen," said Selby. "One is that we will start
asking questions in a more practical fashion, so the results would speak
more consistently to questions that patients want to know the answers to.
And two is that, by our example of involving patients in the
research, trust will rise." He expects to unveil the institute's proposed research
agenda in the next few weeks.Former Medicare administrator Gail Wilensky says that
agenda should focus on high-cost procedures and drugs on which the medical
community has not developed a consensus, and which have widely different patterns
of use around the country. A Republican, Wilensky believes opposition to the
institute's work is shorts

APProponents of condom use during the filming of X-rated movies in Los
Angeles garnered enough signatures to call for a June referendum that, if
passed, would require condom use on porn sets throughout the city.But proponents
must first get past a lawsuit filed by the city to prevent
the ballot measure."We're thrilled we've passed this initial threshold," Ged Kenslea, a
spokesman for AIDS Healthcare Foundation, the ballot's main backer, told The Los
Angeles Times of qualifying on the ballot. "We believe we're going to
prevail in court and look forward to taking this issue directly to
the voters."To the reported surprise of city council members, Los Angeles city
attorney Carmen Trutanich filed suit earlier this month to keep the AIDS
Healthcare Foundation proposal off the ballot. Trutanich reportedly argued that only the
state can legally impose the safe-sex rule and charge fees to pay
inspections, so the city and county can't be forced to monitor compliance.The

APDec. 22, 2011: Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul speaks during a campaign
stop in Dubuque, Iowa.For months, Ron Paul was by turns ignored, tolerated
and occasionally even praised by his opponents in the Republican presidential race.But
with the libertarian-leaning candidate surging to the front of the field in
Iowa with less than a week to go before the caucuses, Paul's
extensive record of outside-the-GOP-mainstream comments and views is coming under withering attack
by his competitors.While some of his fellow Republicans have practically adopted his
unwavering criticism of the Federal Reserve and Washington's spending habits over the
course of the campaign, they are picking apart other aspects of his
record -- in particular singling out his foreign policy views as dangerously
isolationist.Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, who mostly had stayed away from commenting
on Paul's campaign, took a swipe Wednesday at the Texas congressman's hands-off

met on the Internet months earlier, the Chicago Tribune reports.Marron's family typically
returned to their native town each Christmas, but they couldn't afford to
make the trip this year. Marron was able to save enough money,
however, from his summer job as a restaurant server, according to the
Tribune.Dozens gathered Tuesday night in the suburb of Mount Prospect. They carried
candles, flowers and balloons. The Daily Herald reports that the group prayed
quietly in Spanish.Marron, a student at Rolling Meadows High School in suburban
Chicago, loved spending time with family and "made everyone smile," said friend
Joel Muneton."I found out through Facebook, and it was shocking," said Andres
Montiel. "I've known him since I was like in first grade. It
was just really rough."Fellow students reflected on what the rest of the

BISHKEK, Kyrgyzstan A Soviet-built jet operated by a Kyrgyz carrier broke
its wing, overturned and caught fire Wednesday as it tried to land
in deep fog in southern Kyrgyzstan, leaving 31 people injured, officials said.The
Soviet-built Tu-134 operated by local carrier Kyrgyzstan had flown from the capital
Bishkek and was trying to land at the airport in the city
of Osh, said Ilyas Egemberdiyev, a spokesman for the airline.Rescuers quickly extinguished
the fire and evacuated 82 passengers and six crewmembers. Emergency Situations Minister
Kubatbek Boronov said that 31 people were injured, and 17 of them
were hospitalized.Officials declined to comment on possible causes of the crash. A
team of top officials led by the nation's prime minister was to
fly to Osh to start a probe, but it had to delay
the trip because of thick fog and strong winds in the area.The
twin-engined Tu-134, along with its larger sibling the Tu-154, has been the
workhorse of Soviet and Russ
