...despite such variations, the report reveals one common thread: Muslim citizens have much the same outlook as non-Muslims in Europe. Like their neighbors, they care about everything from education and housing to cleaner air and safer streets. And they want the same rights and opportunities. "Communities, regardless of faith, have largely the same concerns," says report director Nazia Hussein. "Where they differ is how they are treated and viewed...
...Waddell, the diagnosis was a long time in coming. Several years earlier, his wife Marshéle Carter Waddell and their three kids had noticed that everyday things like a whining vacuum cleaner could trigger his rages. Even his kids riled him. "I'd come back from stepping over corpses with their entrails hanging out, and my kids would be upset because their TiVo wasn't working," he recalls.

"When I couldn't find...
Despite these relatively high prices, Green Apple has found a niche among the more environmentally sensitive citizens of New York and New Jersey. Before Kistner opened his first store, he had 1,000 customers signed up, and today there are three Green Apple Cleaners in the metropolitan area. It may help that Kistner throws in a few green extras, paying customers to return hangers and employing reusable or biodegradable plastic bags.
