TIME's 10-year forecast as described in "10 Ideas for the Next 10 Years" is over¬confident [March 22]. In the first entry, "prophets of doom" are seen as missing the reality of American "nimbleness and adaptability."

Or that was the story they sold us anyway. Where is the E.U. now that the Greeks need it? Where...

It was a day that saw the first bloodshed since the protests began in Bangkok on March 12. But by mid-evening both sides had called on their forces to retreat. It was unclear who held the upper hand in what is becoming a battle for survival by the current Thai government...
