...Raging in the Streets Re "Iran's Awakening" [june 29 - July 6]: I am an Iranian who wishes to convey to everyone who is fighting in Iran in a way we and our parents were not able to that we are humbled by the dedication you have displayed during the protests. Every night, Iranians have flooded the streets of Westwood, Los Angeles, wearing the colors of the campaign for freedom and carrying flags and candles.

He said he did this "as strongly as possible, as hard as I could press." He believes, he said, that Than Shwe will "seriously consider" his proposals...
...rare to see Argentina's First Family convey political humility. But as President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and her husband (and presidential predecessor) Néstor Kirchner absorbed their startling defeat in Sunday's midterm elections, they both offered unusual hints of contrition. "In a democracy, you win and you lose," said Fernández after her Peronist party's congressional majority had vanished, leaving her to deal with a potentially hostile parliament over the last 2½ years of her term.
