The Marines also asked for a two-star general to do the inquiry to ensure that it be able to go to the highest Marine levels in Iraq. In the military, a junior...
...harsh but just verdict of history. His grossly ruinous reign was finished. On Friday he flew without fanfare to his garish mansion at Gbadolite, 700 miles north of Kinshasa, leaving Information Minister Kin-Kiey Mulumba to announce to the press that the President had "ceased all intervention in the conduct of the affairs of state."

Campbell saw a business opportunity in running the complicated logistics of an event that can involve more than 2,000 competitors and dozens of weeks of preparation.

Students here are studious enough, and the new Lamont has hopefully allowed for some of the busy bodies to break out of their strict, routine. As this year comes to a close and the experiment of 24-hour Lamont ends its first cycle, we once again want to thank Harvard College...
...speciation” occurs when an isolation barrier such as a geographic impediment divides a population and mating stops, Reich said. However, that theory is not applicable to the drawn-out separation of humans and chimps discovered by the researchers, according to Reich.
