...wonder then that the exhibition's organizers aim, with the support of unesco (and, one presumes, violence permitting), to repatriate these treasures by 2016 to a museum they hope to build atop the ruins of the ancient Gazan port of Anthedon. Curator Marc-André Haldimann sees the project laying a foundation for a future of tolerance. "It reminds us that Gaza is not the deadlocked prison that it is today," he says, "but, as it was-the window of the world...
...from the ravages of globalization; no more reflexive opposition to the U.S., which enjoyed a rare expression of Gallic affection when Sarkozy said: "France will always be by their side when they need it." Sarkozy also declared that he wants "to rehabilitate work, authority, morality, respect and merit."

It doesn't follow the "fresh and local" mantra of resort cooking. But it, like the Seychelles, is wonderful fusion. Villas start at $1,800 a night; see maia.com.sc...
...conservative-led governments, Bayrou's current platform is not so wildly different from Royal's, pledging more support for schools and more environmental responsibility. His opponents mistrust such pragmatism. "The French will figure out eventually that it's better to have a real left and a real right," says André Santini, who was suspended from Bayrou's UDF last month for backing Sarkozy...
