Luscombe is right on target about who is to blame for malnourished fashion models: the designers. But the danger to women goes far beyond the fashion industry. As a psychologist, I am seeing an alarming number of young women who enter my office hating their bodies and starving themselves to achieve an unattainable ideal. Any movement to stop this travesty should be lauded and supported. If Madrid outlaws the use of dangerously thin models in fashion work, perhaps that could begin to force those responsible to adapt...
...Allison, if Kim Jong Il were to sell a weapon to bin Laden and that weapon were used against the U.S. or one of its allies, then the principle would require the U.S. to "treat this precisely like a nuclear-tipped-missile attack" and retaliate against Pyongyang. "That danger [of North Korean proliferation] has always been there," says Michael Green, until last year a senior staff member on the National Security Council.

Moscow and Beijing - as well as South Korea - agree that North Korea must be punished for its flagrant disregard of Security...
...There is an aviation saying that "pilots always want to learn more about flying - but not too much in one day." That speaks to the inherent danger in being a new pilot: flying is a highly complex endeavor, and the more a pilot flies the better prepared he is when something unexpected pops up. But Lidle was a "low-time" pilot with only 95 hours of solo flying under his belt...
