...Both Russia and Georgia are guilty of atrocities. However, Georgia's heavy shelling of South Ossetia, including civilian areas, must preclude it from being seen as a "victim." I would expect that type of language from Fox News, but I expect a powerful media outlet like TIME to report the truth in an unbiased manner. Chris Pappas, Lubbock, Texas...
...Arthur Loxley, and Arthur's Eurasian wife, Iris de Souza. Iris, now an arthritic and incontinent 82-year-old, living on the untender mercies of her sister-in-law, Audrey, is becoming an intractable problem for her son. Meanwhile, Tom's deepening attraction for Nelly can only find an outlet in a desultory work he begins about...
...first task will be defending New Orleans, which was betrayed during Katrina by badly designed and constructed Corps flood walls as well as by a misguided Corps navigation canal called the Mississippi River Gulf Outlet, which intensified storm surges. The Corps has pledged that by 2011, the city will be safe from a 100-year storm--the level of protection that was required but never provided before Katrina. It has already repaired or improved 220 miles (350 km) of flood walls and levees and installed floodgates that during Gustav helped keep surges from Lake Pontchartrain out of the city...
...more than $30,000 for lithium-ion technology. The more expensive kits buy you a longer all-electric range, don't need replacing as often, and take up less space. The catch is that the additional battery has to be recharged by plugging your car into an electric outlet for several hours every time the battery gets drained, which can be inconvenient.

Gustav's heavy winds have apparently pushed water into the Industrial Canal from those three areas. Kurgan said the last reading on the Industrial Canal's gauge was 11.83 feet; the lowest wall along the canal is about 12.12 feet...
