...Rafsanjani, perhaps the second most powerful man in Iran and certainly the richest, and former President Mohammed Khatami, by far the country's most popular statesman, have both thrown their support behind the protesters. Two of Iran's highest religious authorities, the Grand Ayatullahs Hossein Ali Montazeri and Yousof Sane'i, have issued fatwas condemning acts of election fraud.

Experts tried to calm the masses by saying that some of the fall-off was due to a dip in inventories. That could mean that as those inventories are replenished in this quarter, economic activity...
...author of Magic Street, Ender's Game and the Women of Genesis series Tyler Perry's plays and movies speak from and to the black community, but his message reaches far beyond. Starting with nothing, he built his empire on faith, hope and loyalty; his Madea keeps us sane by blurting out the secret thoughts of civilized people...
