Yet Sweden provides perhaps the finest glimpse into how the war is driving the country's large middle class out of Iraq, devastating entire professions.

Vast ability aside, he had all the extras: a classic pedigree, a gentlemanly demeanor and a body that could be by da Vinci. Two weeks later, he shattered his right hind leg in the Preakness. Barbaro may have hobbled...
...Sure, but will it tickle the discerning canine palate? TIME decided to test Kwispelbier on some of Europe's most favored pooches in Paris's Bois de Boulogne, near the up-scale 16th Arrondissement and a favorite walking spot of the city's finest pedigrees (both four- and two-legged varieties...
