...There's no guarantee the current uneasy comity will continue. "We can't use history as our guide for water planning anymore," says Saleem Ali, a visiting fellow at the Brookings Doha Center in Qatar and a co-author of the report. Demographic growth - the continent's population is expected to grow by nearly 500 million people over the next 10 years - combined with climate change will likely mean that far more Asians will be tapping shrinking sources of water. Water wouldn't be a sole trigger for war but rather a "threat multiplier" - a factor that worsens the social...
...broke the world record at last year's championship by up- and down-stacking six pyramids in just over six seconds, the 11-year-old from Longmeadow, Mass., garnered an endorsement deal from McDonald's.

So does the Catholic Church, which has shown no willingness to change its own teachings, rooted as they often are in centuries of tradition. But, except for the November referendums, solidarity among fellow-thinkers has not borne much fruit. And a recent swarm of dire ads warning of a "gathering storm" of gay rights mostly backfired. "Those advocates want to change the way I think," a woman says in one of the most-viewed commercials. Another adds, "I will have no choice." And another...
