...will divide the goods between Embry Rucker and her latest undertaking--an educational media project on nutrition that she is designing for underprivileged middle-school children near the college. She still assists her old friends back at Y-NOT, but now it's via E-mail. --Reported by Mubarak Dahir/State College...
President Hosni Mubarak has asked his Interior Minister to resign, despite the latter?s good record in the fight against Islamic extremists. But the massacre highlights an intractable problem for the authorities. ?The government have made it very clear that they will not negotiate with the militants,? says Radwan. ?They?ve been using harsh measures up to now, but it hasn?t stopped such attacks ? which are easy for even only a handful of people to carry out.?

And isn't it high time the new socialist government of France admitted it was a mite sorry for the heedlessness that left Louis XVI headless...
...might come to Syria's aid. The Israelis think they can count on Jordan, which made peace with Israel in 1994, to stay out of the fight, despite strains in relations over Netanyahu's tough policies. But Israel's confidence in Egypt is shakier. Two weeks ago, President Hosni Mubarak said that in the event of an Israeli attack on Syria, Egypt would not "stand idly by." Given popular feeling in Egypt against the Netanyahu government, it was perhaps an inevitable, if insincere, remark. If Egypt did not go to war when Israel attacked Lebanon in 1982, notes a senior...
