...Somehow, this unlikely pair form an alliance, mostly because each of them is looked upon as annoying irrelevance by both the military and the local police, but also because single mom Emily is embarking on the kind of marginal life - all low pay and grim dutifulness - that Hank has endured all his years. This elicits his (austerely expressed) sympathy as well as ours. Yet, in a sense, everything I've so far described - the plot, the physical and emotional landscape of the picture - is a diversion, an attempt to lull us by evoking genre conventions, make us think...
...refused to meet to discuss a stalemate over whether Japan would continue to refuel American military vessels participating in the U.S.-led war on terror. "Even though I had requested a party-leader talk, Ozawa rejected my overture," said Abe in his resignation speech, implying that this deadlock somehow had the power to derail a prime ministership that had weathered far worse. "Japan must continue its fight against terrorism under a new Prime Minister...
...That's a bold statement. It's also utterly specious. As every high-school biology student knows, evolution is neither a tidy nor quick process. Even if Clark could somehow prove that prosperity is hereditary - survival of the richest, he terms it - it doesn't follow that genetics, rather than geography or blind luck, caused Europe to industrialize before the rest of the world. Isn't it just as likely that innovations such as the steam engine, and the exploitation of its colonies, made England wealthy?

...news seemed the first real break in the case in months, and a new theory presented itself: the McCanns wanted a night out with friends, so they drugged their little ones with painkillers or sedatives. Madeleine's dose was mismeasured, or she had an unexpected reaction. The parents somehow hid her corpse for weeks and then got the body out in the trunk of their rental car even though a phalanx of reporters was camped in Praia...
...saying is that Nawaz Sharif has been dealing with terrorism with conviction. Musharraf, to the contrary - after 9/11 he was fighting terrorism out of compulsion. That?s the difference. This issue of terrorism is as much an issue for Pakistan as it is a Western issue. But somehow, because of this strained environment, because of his relationship with the U.S., people have come to believe that Musharraf is only an American stooge supporting an American agenda, which is not correct. Extremism and terrorism is Pakistan?s problem, and Pakistan?s job to combat. It is on our agenda...
