Bush, by contrast, has learned to stand oblique to the current of public opinion on the environment, allowing criticism to slide off his back. His lieutenants in Interior, Agriculture and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have quietly focused on the regulatory route, using administrative guidance and legal loopholes to achieve what Gingrich could not obtain in the full glare of the legislative process. "They are rejecting the full-frontal-assault approach that gets a lot of media attention in favor of death by a thousand strokes of the pen," contends Stoermer. The Republicans are also learning how to spin environmental...
...French as pastry. But with criminal gangs from Eastern Europe, West Africa and Asia now funneling large numbers of girls onto French streets, the Assemblée Nationale is ready to allay voters' fears over mounting lawlessness.

Well, let's say relatively comfortable. During our mid-August trek, it rained half the time. Much of the interior is accessible only by helicopter, and tourists who fly into a volcanic site for an afternoon can occasionally be stranded for days...
Deep in Brazil's semi-arid interior, at the climax of a trip designed to show his cabinet the country's crushing poverty, newly elected President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva mounted a makeshift stage and, like a lead singer introducing his band, presented his ministers to the crowd of 7,000. Polite applause greeted the parade of bureaucrats - but then Lula called on his Culture Minister and the applause turned into a roar. For more than 30 years Gilberto Gil has been one of the two biggest pop stars in Brazil - a man whose music...
