I've had the pleasure of interviewing Intel Chairman Craig Barrett three times in my varied career, so I can say with authority that he is passionate about the environment. And about education. Then again, this is not surprising from technologist who also happens to be a Montana ranch owner. In any event, Barrett used his keynote address at the Intel Developer Forum last week to talk about something called the Inspire Empower Challenge, which will reward technological innovation as applied to education, health care, economic development or the environment. Technology is one of the most powerful ways to address some of these challenges, according to Barrett, who is also the chair of a United Nations Program focused on bringing technology... ...

Could a $25 gift card given to the right person help stop the spread of HIV/AIDS? According to the Associated Press, U.S. government officials think it's worth trying, to the tune of $1.5 million. With the latest statistics showing that the majority of HIV cases in the United States still occur among homosexual males, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is reviving a 2005 North Carolina Program that resulted in encouraging results for more young gay men practicing safe sex (using a condom), the A.P. reports. According to the wire service, the North Carolina Program was relatively simple: CDC officials would go to gay nightclubs and other places where gay men gathered in the Charlotte, Raleigh and Greensboro areas and find men who were popular, respected and had social standing. These men were given four $25 gift cards along with HIV/AIDS marketing materials and encouraged to promote safe sex among their peers, the wire service said. This simple experiment had good results, the A.P. said. Surveys of 300 men in the three North Carolina communities found a 32 percent reduction in unprotected sex and a 40 percent reduction in the average number of sexual partners, the wire service reported. The CDC is going to try the Program now in about 200 communities over a two year period, the A.P. reported. ...
