...Mine, shrouded in mystery. However, subtle cleavage can sometimes work to an outfit’s advantage. It’s like wearing a particularly sweet belt: not necessary for the survival of an outfit, but an interesting and notable addition. Harvard women are not, in general, daylight exhibitionists, so I doubt that fashion’s current tendency to downplay boobage will affect their classroom wardrobe all that much. Harvard women are more likely to sport low-cut shirts during the nighttime hours. Unfortunately, those revealing spandex tank tops, which many Harvard ladies like to wear to parties, oftentimes...

Sunni leaders and some government officials blame him for the June 21 murder of one of Saddam's lawyers, the July 9 daylight slaughter of up to 50 Sunnis and the July 15 kidnapping of 30 officials from the Iraqi Olympic Committee.

The killers were still at large, and local reporters were braving multiple death threats by keeping the Vigo murders in the news. A friend and left-wing activist, Sison had heard that a hit man had already received...
Even by Baghdad standards, it was an incredibly brazen snatch. In broad daylight Tuesday morning, armed men wearing police-commando uniforms kidnapped more than 100 people from the research directorate of the Ministry of Higher Education. Eyewitnesses said the kidnappers arrived in a fleet of dozens of trucks with government markings, and took barely 15 minutes to complete what was obviously a carefully planned operation. They rounded up the directorate's employees, then locked all the women in one room before taking away...
