...friends with other kids in the neighborhood but never seemed to be with them when they headed off to school. Says neighbor Alma Rodriguez: "He was a skater-kind of kid, who didn't speak to anyone." Rodriguez, who lives in a two-bedroom apartment across the tiny green lawn from Devlin's apartment with her husband and two small children, said she never saw Shawn leave in the morning for school. "I didn't think about it at the time, but now I guess it is odd." Both Rodriguez and Richards recall a more irritable Devlin, not the "marshmallow...
...take a look at our company, the Dallas Morning News, what are the things that are growing the fastest? Not the Dallas Morning News you get in a bag on the lawn.

As part of the World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting, which opened in India a few days ago, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh asked a hundred or so delegates to tea on the lawn of his residence Sunday evening. Guests were bused to the PM's New Delhi house and escorted along a path beneath trees that teamed with chirping Indian Mynah birds and the occasional peacock to a meeting room where the softly spoken Singh gave a short formal address. India's economy has experienced...
...lawn outside the prime minister's house, under a large white and purple-colored fabric marquee, guests sipped pomegranate juice and tea and ate fried paneer and samosas, while two or three cats slunk around looking for dropped morsels. One reason for the focus on "inclusive growth" is politics, Harsh Khare, Dubai-based vice president of International Container Terminal Services, told me. The previous government had failed to explain how liberalization could help poor people. "Inclusive has to be a keyword or this government knows it will be kicked out too," says Khare...
