...extremely conspicuous consumption. It's not that DiCaprio shouldn't be applauded for using much of his celebrity to promote environmental causes - though he obviously keeps some in reserve for the supermodels - but in the new world that the 11th Hour wants to create, that celebrity wouldn't exist at all. That's a bigger condition we can't yet overcome...
...than rigged voting. And rather than ramrod the constitutional amendments by fiat, he'll put them to a national referendum. Just as there was a good chance that Chavez could have been ousted by the recall referendum in 2004, there is at least the possibility - one that would never exist in Castro's Cuba - that voters could reject his term-limit proposal as well.

Without the army, the Jewish settlements in Palestinian territory could not exist. The IDF guards the roads leading to the settlements.

On the other, she faces a market flooded with foreclosed properties, like the hundreds up for sale...
...phones, but most people never bother to go through the tedious process, Mislan says. For example, child predators who stalk "moblogs" - the cell phone equivalent of web blogs that are popular with young phone users - may believe they have deleted text messages and postings, but the evidence may still exist within the phone's memory. Mislan recently examined the cell phone of an alleged child pornography ringleader and pulled off 250 "deleted" contacts from its memory...
