...Israel's decision to keep the Western press out of Gaza may also have backfired, because it's given a monopoly of coverage to the more inflammatory reporting of Arab satellite television stations such as al-Jazeera and al-Arabiyya, which maintain bureaus in Gaza. And while there are many excellent Palestinian journalists working for the Western press in Gaza, there have been some examples of doctored photographs and suspicious-looking videos showing civilian suffering. Conservative blogs have singled out one video of doctors trying to resuscitate the brother of the CNN cameraman actually shooting the video, and suggested that...
...crippling legacy that is proving hard to unlearn. Many Cabinet ministers still sign off on minutiae like restocking their office supplies, while the lack of digitization in some government bureaus is almost Monty Python-esque. In Diyala, the governorate's billion-dollar budget (the amount is cumulative because the budget has not been executed over three fiscal years) was being administered by a single accountant who had "a pencil, an eraser and a huge ledger," says Hunt...

How could the networks possibly say goodbye? How could they make the moment last a little longer...
With little in the way of furniture, hotels of both brands have reallocated money ordinarily spent on bureaus and armoires--where traditional hotels hide the TVs--toward spalike bathrooms and custom mattresses. Flat-screen TVs duplicate home-entertainment centers--guests can hook up their laptop or iPod to watch movies or rehearse PowerPoint presentations. High ceilings and oversize windows in the 275-to-325-sq.-ft. Aloft rooms make the room feel more spacious. NYLO's rooms have brick walls and concrete floors to create an urban-loft experience--and reduce cleaning costs...
