Another thing nobody thought of was a buy-it-as-you-see-it fashion show. In August, Ohama, 34, threw Japan's largest fashion event to date, the Tokyo Girls Collection. The 12,600 attendees?and 15 million people watching the live cell-phone broadcast?could purchase items on their phones as soon as they appeared on the catwalk. Shin Akamatsu launched his Joias line at the festival and received more orders than the established labels did.

Al-Qahtani was then brought to Guantanamo where, according to the Pentagon, he admitted that he had been sent to the U.S. by Khaled Sheik Mohammed, architect of the 9/11 attacks, and that he had met Osama bin Laden on several occasions. Al-Qahtani also confirmed that he had received terrorist instruction at two al-Qaeda training camps...
...Cabot House tutor will climb Mt. Everest this August to raise charity funds for a hospice for terminally ill children. “It’s about doing something I want to do and for a good cause,” said Myles G.
