David A. Friedberg, one of the summer school students who was threatened by the men, said the D.A.'s Office informed him that there was a restraining order on the two men preventing them from approaching him.

DENGUE FEVER. The coastal mountain ranges of Costa Rica had long confined dengue fever, a mosquito-borne disease accompanied by incapacitating bone pain, to the country's Pacific shore. But in 1995 rising temperatures allowed Aedes aegypti mosquitoes to breach the coastal barrier and invade the rest of the country.

He has laid down some very tough markers, such as no more redeployment [of Israeli forces out of] the West Bank. That could be a breach of the agreement solemnly negotiated by the Israeli government with the Palestinians. He says he won't reverse the process, but that's not consistent with saying, "No more redeployments." He is also going to have to properly manage the U.S.-Israeli relationship. Regardless of who is elected President this year...
