...Mitt W. Romney pulled the Commonwealth from the pact late last year. Browner said several times that she favors a “cap-and-trade” proposal like RGGI under which each industrial facility would be allocated a certain number of “emission credits,” with the total number of credits set by the government.

I think that dancing with BFA was one of the best experiences of my freshman year,” she says...
...Hashemi Rafsanjani - the former president who, despite the backing of supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khameini, lost his bid for a third term against Ahmadinejad. Rafsanjani broke news of the enrichment to an Iranian radio station several hours before Ahmadinejad, spoiling the surprise in an effort to deny Ahmadinejad the credit for the politically popular achievement...
