...passion for the whole American political machine. The truth is, Tim not only loved politics, he believed in it. He believed that politics could change the trajectory of people's lives. He was tough on elected officials in part because he wanted them to do good, to be pure of heart. He believed devoutly in our political system, and in his absence, those who knew and cared for Tim have that belief to carry us forward...

...what if instead of running your car on gasoline, you could run it on pure electricity? Not only would that help the environment - one-third of U.S. carbon emissions come from cars and trucks - but in an era of ever-increasing gas prices, it would help your wallet as well. Unfortunately, the auto industry has consistently failed to build and sell a truly marketable electric car.

A senior police officer in Jerusalem acknowledges that the instincts of the Haredi community to cover up such crimes undermines the authorities' ability to investigate and prosecute offenders: "We're aware of this phenomenon of sex abuse among Haredis, but an extremely low number of these...

...cafeterias and what's given for breakfast. We've been able to change the progression of weight gain and blood pressure, and we're looking at various other things. We think it may even help academic performances as well. But the thing is, kids are eating often pure starch and transfat, bad fat diets. Starch, sugar, and bad fats. They are not exercising the way kids used to exercise. The combination is a disaster, and it's not just cosmetic.
