...further depth to the profiles, I used Mosaic, a system that divides the U.S. into 50 different behavioral groups, to figure out which segments of our society visit the two websites. I identified the strongest Starbucks and McDonald's types: For Starbucks, it's segment B03, the Urban Commuter Family, described as "college-educated households containing dual income couples." These folks favor golfing as their exercise of choice.

The government, as expected, responded vociferously, saying that...
...Sarkozy's irritation with Syria now matches that of his predecessor Jacques Chirac, who went from being one of Assad's strongest friends in the West to one of the young President's bitterest critics. In 1998, Paris became the first Western capital visited by Assad in an official capacity, two years before he became President. Chirac also was the only Western head of state to attend the funeral of Assad's father, President Hafez al-Assad in 2000.
