The earliest record of the community, from about 1050 AD, refers to a group of people, believed to have come from India (where, indeed, most historians believe the Roma originated) who camped in black tents outside the city walls. After the Ottomans conquered Constantinople, the community was granted offical permission by Sultan Mehmet II to make their homes on what is now Sulukule...

Dartmouth launched a 13-shot flurry at Kessler in the frame, but the Harvard goalie...

But the Russians are right there, across our border, and instead of seeing our vast population and rapid economic growth as a golden economic opportunity, their military and security ministries still look at us and feel nervous. It is an anxiety Nikita Khrushchev wrote about ages ago and it hasn't changed.. The Russians see the vast relative emptiness of their own land mass - and the riches that lie beneath it - and think...
