...Taliban and the state of the global jihad. But there are other, less reassuring lessons from Zazi and from the alleged lone-wolf wannabe terrorists snared by the FBI in Texas and Illinois. For starters: hatred is patient. The American struggle against Islamic terrorism, already one of the longest wars in the nation's history, is not winding down. The longer it goes on, the more likely that the enemy will try to find new fronts closer to home. The hard debates over the use of force, surveillance tactics, interrogation methods and the rights of terrorists have many chapters...

...town of Zabljak, in the mountainous Durmitor region, is well worth a visit. Although there are only four lifts, these access some dramatic chutes and superb powder fields with virtually no competition for your fresh tracks. It's there that the beautiful Tara River runs through Europe's longest canyon, and there are 20 peaks over 6,500 ft. (2,000 m), overlooking 18 gorgeous lakes, so it is not surprising that discussions are under way to set up a heli-skiing operation...

There are people in southeastern Michigan who are still represented by Dingell, the longest-serving member in the history of the House of Representatives.

...period, Randolph exhibited his versatility, taking the ball himself up the middle for a one-yard sneak, resulting in another Crusader score.Holy Cross added some insurance to start the second half.

But a missed extra point from Dornfried kept the score at 20-6.Down by two touchdowns, Collier Winters and the Harvard offense looked to close the gap. But with the Holy Cross’s best cornerback Michael...

...into a slow, jarring tangent, and the song’s momentum is stymied by unnecessary noodlings. Because Long often gives in to experimental impulses, the songs on “Time to Die” are entirely too long, averaging around four and a half minutes with the longest, “Troll Nacht,” clocking in at over six. The length, combined with a persistent background of confused reverberations, makes it hard to focus on any one song, but well-suited for background music. However grandiose their ambitions, this album shows the Dodos struggling to find...
