...that was before U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner unveiled his plan to do just that with the toxic debts of U.S. banks. The move has won plaudits on Wall Street and even a knowing nod from Main Street U.S.A., which understands that the plan is a necessary evil. In Germany, it has also fueled a fierce debate about whether Merkel is wrong and how Berlin might get toxic assets off German banks' books without making taxpayers foot the bill.

...dramatic ninth inning. Penn reliever Vince Voiro failed to record an out in the frame, yielding a single to senior Taylor Meehan before Rogers stepped into the box. The left fielder capped a five-hit, five-RBI day by smashing his second home run over the left-center field wall, bringing the score to 11-10. With Voiro gone, Tom Grandieri faired no better in the relief role, yielding singles to Douglas and Albright before Reynolds sacrifice bunted.

Jones placed 28th in the 100-yard butterfly, touching the wall in 47.11 and marking an improvement on his 47.35 time from 2008. Jones also competed in the 200-yard butterfly, but he was disqualified due to a stroke violation. Meyer had a solid showing at his first NCAA meet, making waves in both the 500-yard freestyle and the 1650-yard freestyle...
...which this week announced plans to bring more federal agents to the border in large part for those purposes, is doing more than previous U.S. administrations to help your efforts? Oh yeah. The previous Administration clearly felt that the problems with Mexico could be solved by building a big wall between the two countries to keep the problems here out of the U.S. That is clearly wrong, and President Obama recognizes that. His efforts are directed at the proper solutions for Mexico's problems - which at the end of the day become problems...
