...young sector is not exactly crowded. Two companies - Afghan Logistics and Tours and Great Game Travel - run most of the tours in the country, drawing and redrawing the map - on a daily basis - of where travel is advisable and where it's not. "Sometimes the whole population knows something and the tourist doesn't know," says Andre Mann, the American director of Great Game Travel who arrived in Afghanistan over three years ago. "The local officials, security networks and international organizations we have relationships with all give us a heads-up if they see a shift in tactics...
...demands, Olmert is acknowledging, won't go away. Recall, the Likud Party, with which Olmert made his career, always refused any dealings with the PLO or even to recognize its demands for Palestinian independence.

Bill Clinton’s electoral victory had begun to transcend the political map of the post-Civil Rights South. After 12 years of Republican rule and alongside a solidly Democratic Congress, the new administration promised something resembling a new consensus, one that would finally recapture the ideal of an active and charitable government, delivering on healthcare, union rights, and equal pay.Then came Don?...
...down, while pro-choice groups generally believe there are 20. The organization of the chapter on each state - its constitution, its law and legal cases, possible pro-choice arguments and rebuttals to those argument - is more obviously useful (as some the book's p.r. material suggests) as a "road map" for pro-lifers than their foes...
