...vast, stalagmite horizon of skyscrapers can't match the glamour of Rio de Janeiro, but the city of 20 million people is a truer and smarter reflection of Brazil's bandeirante (pioneer) character. This year, work will start on the hemisphere's first bullet train, which will eventually link the two cities. High-speed rail won't mask all Brazil's flaws. But it does show, perhaps, that the country of tomorrow has a brighter future...
...current state of their society. It is a dual movement that works on the individual and society at the same time. It is a mode of thinking about art that does not alienate the artist from his society or his product from that world. Rather, it recognizes the inextricable link between the two.

Limbaugh, Steele said, is "an entertainer" given to "incendiary" and "ugly" overstatements. Like other GOP leaders...
...With local and European elections in June looming, Cowen has the dual task of saving his party at the polls and repairing the damage to Ireland's international reputation. Once the shining economic success story of Europe, the country has been routinely described in recent months as the weak link in the euro zone and even suffered the ignominy of being cited as a potential recipient of aid from Germany last week, alongside other struggling E.U. states like Hungary...
