...carcass lies rotting in front of a church; the fact that it hasn't been removed hints that there are more nearby, which of course the other photographs demonstrate to be the case. Piles of bodies-some with limbs hacked off or torn away by scavenging animals-decay among lush vegetation. In Zaire, we see front-end loaders filling mass graves of cholera victims from the refugee camps. In Somalia, the dead are wrapped in white cloth for proper Muslim burial; the corpses are so thin that they can be stacked for mass burial like cut saplings...
...article that cites a skeptic as saying he views warming theory with 97 percent confidence. Kabala cites satellite data that says there has been no global warming since 1979; surely, he is aware of the findings in Nature that show that those readings did not take orbital decay into account. After the correction, warming trends corresponding to temperature become evident. These scientists, backed up by NASA scientists in a more recent Science article, "conclude that the question now is not whether global warming exists--it clearly does--but what should be done about...
Because Russia's nuclear weapons infrastructure continues to crumble, some American conservatives, such as Sen.

The real interest here comes from the riff-driven, mood-shifting songs, Tucker's delivery (everything from talk-singing to moaning, not to mention singing) and, most of all, the casual, gripping mesh...
...Christian Dior, Givenchy, Celine, Kenzo, Christian Lacroix, Tag Heuer, Dom Perignon, Ebel, two Paris department stores, the DFS duty-free chain and the Sephora perfumery-shops, among other brands. Lately, he has been acquiring new companies at the rate of one a week: Bliss, Hard Candy, Fendi, Pucci, Urban Decay. "We look for hot companies, still small," says Arnault in his accented English, his voice a clipped tenor. "No one can do as much with a hot brand...
