On the front page of the "Sunday Styles" section of the New York Times Sunday was a grand photo of three of Charlize Theron's stylists and fashion consultants considering long flowing gowns for the Oscars festivities. Also an article about Gardasil vaccinations for boys, titled "Vaccinating Boys For Girl's Sake?" So it's pretty much like this. Your eyes are first drawn to the photo of the women with their leggings and boots and fashionable outfits and hairstyles. Then your eyes automatically drift to the left to read "Protect yourselves against the human papillomavirus, or H.P.V., which causes cervical cancer."
The article explains the idea of extending the vaccine to boys in 2009 which is to "slow the rates of cervical cancer". Some controversy here of course. Says the paper, "Public health folks charmlessly call this 'herd immunity'". Speaking of charm school, and charm is relevant not only to "Sunday Styles" but to vaccinations for sexually transmitted diseases -- taking "science is culture" to heart -- what about that page layout?
