...ever plan to write additional books for the Vampire Chronicles series? -Kelly Meier, Belle Mead, N.J.When I published my first book about the Lord, I said I would never write about those characters again. But I have one more book that I would like to write. It will concern the vampire Lestat, but it will be written in a redemption framework, where he is wrestling with the existence of God. I don't see it as a violation of my promise, because I won't be writing about vampires...
...entrance of Harvard’s future expanded campus. In addition to relocating the existing 213 Charlesview units, the proposal outlines 69 additional affordable rental units and up to 118 home ownership units. At last night’s meeting, the density of the proposed complex was the main concern raised by residents. While the neighborhood now has about 30 people per acre, the blueprint plans for more than 100 people per acre. It also includes a 10-story building that residents say is incompatible with the two- and three-story buildings that make up the rest of the neighborhood...
...McCain's excessive concern for Bush's day job simply underlined the fact that these two were never going to be the prettiest pair. First, they had to overcome their history, which is neither dead nor buried, despite what both sides want you to think. Spend anytime with close Bush aides, especially those from the now-exiled Texas mafia who grew up politically around 43 as Governor, and conversation inevitably turns back to the campaign of 2000: how Bush scraped himself off the floor after New Hampshire; how McCain's current campaign chairman, Rick Davis, produced lousy ads during that...
...That's not to say that most voters across the political spectrum don't care about the issues. Spokespersons for both major parties agree that the economy has become the election's central concern. After four years of unprecedented prosperity, Spain's economy, like so many others, has recently suffered, with growth slowing in the fourth quarter of 2007 to 3.3% (down from 4.3% in the fourth quarter of 2006) and unemployment rising to 8.6%. With 35.9% of Spaniards rating the economy "bad" or "very bad" (up from 25.4% the previous year), both parties are seeking to portray themselves...
...These tensions - heightened by concern over the possibility of another war with Israel - often spill onto the court. Because Lebanon's Shi'ites generally prefer soccer (perhaps reflecting their status as a traditionally disenfranchised minority), the main hoops action tends to be Christian vs. Christian, and Christian vs. Sunni. In fact, basketball is an extension of politics to such a degree that when General Michel Aoun, a Christian leader, turned against the country's mainline pro-government Christians, one of the first things he did was start a new basketball team, the Blue Stars...
