Her daughter Margaret, 21, has Down, and is, according to her mother, an avid reader, Red Sox fan and downloader of Internet recipes as well as a "source of joy and delight to her family."

...SEPT. 10, A DAY SHY OF THE fourth anniversary of the attack on the World Trade Center, that Imam Mohamed Magid met terrorism's victims face to face.

We'll see some arms dealers, some people from Fatah intelligence, some oil traders.' I wasn't a consultant on the film...
Gaghan, Baer and Baer's then 13-year-old daughter Charlotte met up in Nice. Within a few hours, they were relaxing on the yacht of a former Fatah intelligence officer. Then a representative of the Carlyle Group, the global investment behemoth, anchored next to them. "It kept getting crazier and crazier," says Baer.
