Since then there have been nearly daily attacks. Dozens more police officers,soldiers,and civilians have died,a natural-gas pipeline to Jordan was bombed,and on July 6,gunmen murdered a Coptic Christian priest and kidnapped another Copt whose body turned up last week,bound and beheaded. Just this morning,suspected militants in North Sinai fired an RPG at a civilian bus as they screamed "Allahu akbar!," killing three people and injuring at least 17. The Bedouin who are native to this region famous as the "wilderness" of the Old Testament have their tribal laws and their own way of life. But rather than understand that and work with them,Cairo has tended to treat them as incorrigible renegades to be oppressed,ignored,or,

"When a woman says no,and takes away that security that she will be there forever,the self-image of the man falls apart," Serughetti says. "The inability to accept that the girlfriend,wife,lover,mother of their children has a mind of their own triggers the murderous rampage that would be very simplistic and misleading to call excess of love,jealousy,or insanity. But it’s actually insecurity."When Gabriela Moscatelli opened the domestic-violence hotline Telefona Rosa 25 years ago,she says almost no one called. "They kept the dirty laundry of domestic violence within the walls of the home," she told Newsweek. Now the center counsels close to 1,200 women a year who are in chronically abusive situations,helping them get into safer settings that didn’t exist a quarter century ago.

They’re Care-Bears-tame compared to what goes down in Capture the Flag.Humpty Dumpty: Terrorist Hunter It’s the greatest egghunt in history. And Humpty Dumpty is leading it. "He’s hard. He’s as hard as he comes," one CIA agent warns. "I know he’s hard,but will he crack?" He’ll stop at nothing to catch bin Laden,and neither will his pun-happy supervisors.
The market clearly likes what it is seeing—or at least it was expecting something worse. But the challenges remain: there is little reason to think that Facebook will get a handle on its cost growth. Zuckerberg,who already struck gold with a combination of knowing what users wanted and the engineering prowess to make it work,now needs to become a mobile-revenue magician. That’s a tough nut to crack for any company dependent on advertising—even Google. Facebook’s stock is still almost 45 percent below the IPO price. Operating margins fell in the quarter. Still,the company has one major asset—aside from global dominance: $10.5 billion in cash sitting on its books. Inside the High-End Fashion Sensibility on CBS’s ‘The Good Wife’ Courtesy of CBSWithin the cavernous warehouse that is home to the costumes for CBS’s sophisticated legal drama The Good Wife,there are apparently 600 women’s suits at any given time,waiting to be worn by Juliana Margulies’s Alicia Florrick and Christine Baranski’s Diane Lockhart.
And this tension between the shadowy roots of pot and the direct light of legalization pervades the industry,which employs more than 4,000 people in Colorado,hundreds of them in six-figure jobs. At River Rock,Arbelaez’s two-store operation,and Local Product of Colorado,Salfeld’s upmarket boutique,more than 100 people are on staff. Fleets of contractors collecting checks cycle through,along with gardening wholesalers,business consultants,and software developers. The whole state has been buoyed by marijuana sales without evident decay.But because Arbelaez and Salfeld,

It means that impasses can only be broken by zero-sum victories by one party over another.But America's system of separated powers and checks and balances doesn't work this way. By forcing power sharing and giving minorities blocking power,it makes democratic bargaining and compromise integral to our country's progress and success.So Republicans need to come back to their senses,if only to keep Democrats from eventually losing theirs. GOP,heal thyself: we need the competition.The Obama Charm Offensive: Inside His Session with the House GOP In his first meeting with House Republicans in two years,President Obama strongly pushed back on the charge that his administration's top priority is to score political points against the GOP.
If the Millennials challenge Reaganite orthodoxy,they will likely challenge Clintonian orthodoxy,too. Over the past three decades,Democratic politicians have grown accustomed to campaigning and governing in the absence of a mobilized left. This absence has weakened them: Unlike Franklin Roosevelt or Lyndon Johnson,Bill Clinton and Barack Obama could never credibly threaten American conservatives that if they didn't pass liberal reforms,
marc jacobs wallets,left-wing radicals might disrupt social order. But Democrats of the Reagan-Clinton generation have also grown comfortable with that absence. From Tony Coelho,who during the Reagan years taught House Democrats to raise money from corporate lobbyists to Bill Clinton,who made Goldman Sachs co-chairman Robert Rubin his chief economic adviser,to Barack Obama,who gave the job to Rubin's former deputy and alter ego,Larry Summers,Democrats have found it easier to forge relationships with the conservative worlds of big business and high finance because they have not faced much countervailing pressure from an independent movement of the left.
Marshals after he was arrested in Switzerland on a warrant accusing him of bribing customs officials in Miami so he could illegally transport military helicopters to Africa.Normally you would think someone who made their entrance wearing an orange prison jump suit would be looked upon with suspicion. But not here. Sissoko posted the largest cash bond in the history of Miami's federal court and while awaiting trial booked two floors of a posh hotel for him and his entourage that had followed him to Miami. He hired the best lawyers,as well as a PR firm. He donated to local charities. Gave thousands of dollars to the valets and doormen at the hotel. He even wrote a check for $300,000 so a local high school's marching band could travel to the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
