But just as Operation Steel Curtain, targeting insurgents in towns near the Syrian border, wound down, fighters loyal to al-Qaeda's top man in Iraq, Abu Mousab al-Zarqawi, popped up in Ramadi. The insurgents' ability to preserve and regenerate their forces is a hallmark of the war. The official American tally for the Nov. 17 battle in Ramadi: 33 insurgents killed, 1 Marine slightly wounded. But Blue Platoon knows it has not delivered a knockout punch...
...final scene, in which she “performs” a song using multiple orifices. The film even includes a scene where Silverman finds herself wildly in love with her reflection (and proceeds to passionately make out with the mirror), a piece that seems like a hallmark in the compendium of stupid humor.

If an extra 21st chromosome is found--the hallmark of Down--the woman or couple face a fateful choice: to terminate a pregnancy that has already reached the second trimester, or prepare to raise a child with Down, which causes mild-to-moderate retardation and often other health problems as well. Doctors estimate that 80% to 90% choose...
...than 10 minutes. One Porter Square resident, Glenn Heinmiller, chats with Murphy at length about issues ranging from homelessness to local diversity. Near the end of their conversation, Murphy makes a quick call on his cell phone to find out where Heinmiller should go to get an absentee ballot.The hallmark of door-to-door work, Murphy says, lies in its variety.“You just don’t known what you’re going to get at the doors,” he says.—Staff writer William L.
