...Eliezer, quitting the government is a risky option. Serving as Sharon's Defense Minister has put him front-and-center in the battle for Israel's security, and he's earned positive ratings in the job. Surrendering the position in a period when terror attacks continue and the danger of an Iraqi provocation looms leaves him in danger of becoming the forgotten man of Israeli politics, especially since he's not exactly known for his charisma or ability to articulate a strong political alternative to road chosen by Sharon...
...contests were marked by moments of clutch hitting, including the double Angels cleanup hitter Garret Anderson belted to right field in game seven, and of high human drama, as when J. T. Snow deftly scooped Giants manager Dusty Baker’s three-year-old son from danger at home plate in game five.

And Warner Bros. even worried that the new film would receive a PG-13 rating in the U.S. - a dangerous proposition since the core consumers for Potter toys, which generated about half a billion dollars in sales last time around, range in age from seven to 11. The studio was relieved when Chamber of Secrets got a PG rating (like Philosopher's Stone) but Columbus is in danger of becoming...
