...other words, Benedict's surprise, unilateral gesture to the group also known as the Society of St. Pius X has kicked up a storm rivaled in this four-year old pontificate only by his provocative 2006 Regensburg speech about faith and violence that offended so many Muslims. Indeed, this may very well turn out worse. The Pope's biggest problem will be neither Jewish leaders' hurt feelings (which he has already begun to heal) nor the outrage of liberal Catholics (with whom Benedict was never going to be truly simpatico).

...World Cup finals in 2014. It is a daunting task. Reid must motivate not only talented yet underperforming young Thai players but also millions of cynical Thai fans who would much rather watch English Premier League football than their often amateurish homegrown variety. Though Reid has a four-year contract, his honeymoon period will be much shorter.

...exciting to see my old alma mater, which used to be called Shenandoah College and Conservatory of Music, in Time [Dec. 8]. I only wish you had mentioned something about other programs it offers. The school has come a long way since 1976, when the focus was on the four-year music school, with a nursing-degree program and other degrees offered as well.
