...Tourists are marveling at the inventive lotions, potions and sauces stall holders have concocted from the remote region's boab trees. Also for sale are indigenous art and craft and the handiwork of local women. A handful of people have gathered around a young woman displaying a laundry gizmo. Slim, tanned and cheerful, Sheree O'Brien, 34, is spruiking The Amazing Handiwash, a plastic agitator that cleans dirty clothes in a bucket...

So with the battle lines drawn, from Baghdad to Beirut, the summer in the Middle East may yet get a lot, lot hotter...
...Bennett’s opposition to holding a fair vote stems from Martin’s status as a mother or status as a conservationist, his refusal should be worrisome, at the least.As if to nail the coffin shut on this sorry episode, the Arizona media has paid slim attention to the incident. This is surprising, given the state’s typically moderate conservatism: Sen. John McCain is Arizona’s favorite son; Gov. Janet Napolitano is not only a Democrat, but also an unmarried woman, and the state capital Phoenix is the fifth-largest city...
