...telling now in the Belgrade operation is who took the credit for finding Karadzic - and who did not. "We have just jumped over a big hurdle on the pathway toward European integration," said Defense Minister Dragan Sutanovac, a member of Tadic's Democratic Party. By contrast, the government's junior coalition partner, the Socialist Party of Serbia - once led by former Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic - was less effusive.

Most people tell me I'm mature for my age and that they would never have guessed how old I was. Usually, I believe them. But after my first day living alone in a three-bedroom apartment (the other two rooms in my sublet are empty for the summer), all I wanted to do was call my mommy. Yet while I'm not always immediately grown-up, I tend to learn and adapt fast, perhaps...
