...entire army wears berets now, and there's a lesson in that. Bush has spoken eloquently of the need to expand democracy in the Middle East, and he has been equally eloquent about the nobility of public service. Why not combine both in a new, ?lite military corps? Call them Extreme Peacekeepers or the Freedom Corps or whatever, but seek out the sort of people who aren't normally inclined to join the military-idealistic college students who hope to become doctors, lawyers, politicians or engineers and are eager to do something noble (and burnish their r?sum?s) by serving their...
...that you're leaving for the military," says Meinen, a dark-haired practical joker from Grangeville, Idaho. "But if you're wounded, the military doesn't tell them, because they might be worried about the public getting negative about what's going on over there." Says the serious, quiet-spoken Castro, from Santa Ana, Calif.: "Nobody knows what happened to us, even though it was one of the biggest ambushes in Iraq.

For anyone who's followed him since the late 1980s, it was an unexpected turn. He's a very soft-spoken man who prefers to work behind the scenes, and has consistently kept a low profile. Unlike some of the other oligarchs, he largely remained quiet. Also, Khodorkovsky's father is Jewish, and it's accepted political wisdom in the circles around him that in light of the the prevailing social...
...themselves. She is also lucky enough to get to wear a different gorgeous costume, designed by Jane van Cleef ’06, in each of her appearances. The chorus of minions are sufficiently alien and demonic, although it was impossible to hear any of their dialogue, which was spoken in overlapping snippets or in not-quite-unison. The play also includes a few addresses by a bizarrely dressed figure who quotes Tolstoy and Shakespeare to the audience; as far as I could tell, these interruptions had little to do with the action...
