...include a bit of hyperbole, and that can convey the message that the situation is hopeless when in fact it is not, and that might do some lasting damage, given the fact that all investors take their information and make their assessments on the basis of the 24-hour news cycle. Famine has wreaked havoc in Ethiopia for so long , it would be stupid not to be sensitive to the risk of such things occurring. But there has not been a famine on our watch - emergencies, but no famines...
From the port city of Iquitos (about an hour by plane northeast of Lima), the 12-cabin Aqua delves deep into the 5-million-acre (2 million ha) Pacaya Samiria Reserve in placid pursuit of rare pink dolphins, giant river otters and elusive black caimans.

We were lucky - our plane did depart, and landed safely at NEEM some two-and-a-half hours later. There...
...mushroom cloud and the coarse Comedian (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) plunging to his death from a window, with a blood-spattered smiley face--the book's trademark--tumbling after him. With its dense story line, Watchmen asks a lot of its audience, and Snyder is wrestling with a three-hour cut of the film. But Comic-Con's diehards rise to a challenge. They happily viewed the footage twice...
