West Coast may curb second AIDS wave among addicts
UCSF epidemiologist Andrew Moss says the second wave seen in East Coast drug users is controllable here with treatment and outreach. New York City shows higher infection rates among heterosexual addicts. San Francisco reports rising but lower rates and urges expanded needle programs, bleach outreach, and drug treatment slots amid federal funding gaps.

Standardized test critic files fraud complaints in 50 states
Dr. John Cannell, a West Virginia physician and education watchdog, says he filed consumer fraud complaints in all 50 states against four major test publishers. He alleges deceptive testing practices, calls for free annual norm updates, new questions, and analysis of whether tests have become easier over time. Publisher responses challenge his conclusions and note costs and confidentiality.
