Moriarty and fellow wildlife officials across the U.S. - as well as in Canada, Britain and other countries - have been trying to control the goose population for years. So how do you goose Canada geese? For starters, you get people to stop feeding them. Another method is to change the landscape; like good suburbanites, Canada geese prefer well-trimmed lawns and will shun long grass and shrubby areas that can hide predators. They can be scared away by noisemakers, fireworks, falcons and border collies. Pouring vegetable oil on goose eggs prevents them from hatching and also tricks their parents into...
...June 30, the Administration imposed unilateral U.S. sanctions on two North Korean companies engaged in proliferation - sanctions that will "augment efforts to curtail the North Korean regime's ability to develop and sell WMD and missiles," says Bruce Klingner, former North Korea analyst at the CIA, now a senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation in Washington. One of the firms sanctioned, called Hong Kong Electronics and located on Kish Island, Iran, is alleged to have transferred millions of dollars of proliferation-related funds from Iran to North Korean companies already on U.S. and U.N. sanctions lists, according to the Treasury...
...behaves exactly like a married man," says Robert Rector, a senior research fellow of domestic policy at the Heritage Foundation. If a man is willing to contribute 70% of his income to the child's upbringing, dedicate himself around the clock to the child's well-being and create a stable home life - a home life that includes his actually living there with mother and child - he might be able to give his child the boon of fatherhood without having to tie the knot.

"The E.U. needs to show that its position is associated with the U.S., with its implicit threat of coercive action," says Daniel Korski, senior policy fellow at the European Council on Foreign Relations. Noting that Iran's economy is struggling - oil is now below $68 a barrel and the recent turmoil will further deter foreign investment - Korski says the government has a long-term interest in repairing its relationship with the E.U. "Iran may rant and rage, but that doesn't mean the E.U. is being kicked...
...longer term, the question could be less about how Europe responds to Iran, and more about how Iran tries to woo back Europe. "Iran is lashing out and fabricating various allegations. But this will harm Iran more than it harms the E.U.," says Sir Richard Dalton, associate fellow at the international-affairs institute Chatham House in London. Dalton believes that behind Iran's prickly attitude is insecurity about the country's relative weakness compared to the E.U. "Iran needs Europe - it needs the trade, it needs support in international organizations and it needs to maintain a strong image...
