...sandy bunkers of St. Andrews aren't the only tourist traps in the golf capital of Scotland. Just 14 km down the road, 30 m beneath a quaint stone farmhouse, is Scotland's Secret Bunker: the nuclear-proof headquarters for Scottish ministers, had the cold war got hot. Descend a gray metal staircase and down a 150-m, tungsten-reinforced tunnel to reach the bunker's red blastproof doors. From 1968 to 1992 these subterranean redoubts were manned by soldiers from the Royal Observer Corps; on guard today are uniformed mannequins, their lifelessness adding an apocalyptic chill...
...those acquitted was Gasoub al Abrash Ghalyoun, for whom the prosecution HAD also demanded 74,000 years.

He depicts row upon row of near identical girls playing an accordion concert with rictus grins across their face, "as though the thin veneer of their smiles were proof that these young prodigies were flourishing here." Yes it looks horrible, but no more so than one of those frightening children's beauty contests made popular in the southern U.S. Or on a broader scale, Delisle does an outstanding job of depicting North Korea's relentless culture of fear and hostility...
...presidential elections because so many traditionally Socialist voters opted for stronger tobacco in the form of a plethora of Trotskyite, anti-globalization parties. Despite that debacle, which led to Chirac's broad and - for the left - bitter victory, the potential for the far left is stronger than ever. The proof: An ample majority of Socialists voted no in the referendum on the European Constitution on May 29. While that current still hasn't coalesced under a strong leader and may never do so, the fact that the German far-left garnered almost 10 percent of the vote has to worry...
