...insurgents seem to regard no one as a noncombatant-women, children, the elderly and monks have all been killed. Also, murder alone no longer satisfies the militants: they routinely mutilate their victims' corpses or burn them beyond recognition, a deliberate blow to grieving families. In May a Buddhist fruit picker became the 29th victim to be decapitated; his head was left outside a Yala school to scare teachers and children. At another Yala village, insurgents shot dead and set alight a Buddhist health official, then detonated a 10-kg bomb buried beneath the road. The blast injured 12 people, including...
Conservative Christians, cancer patients, burn victims and senior citizens, among others, have shown surprising interest. Joanne Martinez, 37, of San Clemente, Calif., bought a Hawaiian-print ensemble to stave off chills during late-night dips.

Scientists at the Oregon Department of Health documented for the first time an hourly buildup of a cancer-causing compound from cigarette smoke in the blood and urine of nonsmokers working in bars and restaurants in the state...
...greater risk is to Japan's ever-strained relations with its Asian neighbors, which still burn with resentment over the wartime suffering inflicted on them by the Imperial Japanese Army. Their anger tends to be ignored by Tokyo, which seems to want to discuss the "comfort women" issue only with Washington. In fact, when Prime Minister Shinzo Abe recently uttered the closest thing he's said to an apology on the issue, it was addressed to President George W. Bush at an April summit in Washington, rather than directly to the victims. Tokyo's obsession with Washington's opinion...
