...hundreds of troops, helicopters, and live-mortar and live-rifle fire. The military says this is the closest the soldiers will get to actual combat before they deploy to Afghanistan. The soldiers train by themselves and alongside the Kenyan army, sometimes with locals playing the roles of rioters or restless crowds. To accommodate the increase in troops, the army has begun renting land from residents - it went from dealing with three landowners a few years ago to seven now. Neither the military nor the ranches will disclose how much money has changed hands, but it's believed...
...almost compulsively social and enjoys the company of beautiful women. On the wall of his office is a series of photos of him picking up the Georgian-born British pop star Katie Melua, 25, like a newlywed crossing the threshold. More than anything, though, Saakashvili is restless. His jitters can at times make him seem like an overgrown adolescent. Cameras caught him chewing nervously on his tie during last August's war, a gesture he has been careful not to repeat. In my presence, he caught himself several times gnawing, ever so slightly, on the corner of a handkerchief...

Eight months into his presidency, Obama might want to give Moses a second look. On issues from health care to Afghanistan, the President faces doubts and rebellions, from an entrenched pharaonic establishment on one hand and restless, stiff-necked followers on the other. There's good reason, then, for Obama to heed the leadership lessons of history's greatest leader. Like presidential predecessors from Washington to Reagan, Obama can use the Moses story to help guide Americans in troubled times. From the Pilgrims to the Founding Fathers, the Civil War to the civil rights movement, Americans have turned to Moses...
Either way, foreign policy analysts say Obama is setting a precarious precedent by trying to have it both ways. In the future, restless militaries in other countries may look at the U.S.'s Honduras ruling and decide coups are worth chancing as long as they don't install a guy wearing epaulettes in the president's chair. In that scenario, a full-bore U.S. aid cut-off won't kick in by default - and there's always the possibility, they'll reason, that the White House won't adopt enough punitive steps to make them cry uncle...
