...HUGHES could be the Cinderella of the Olympics. An alternate on the U.S. women's figure-skating team, the 17-year-old sister of 2002 gold medalist Sarah learned a day after Opening Ceremonies that she would get to go to the ball in Torino as a last-minute sub for injured Michelle Kwan. But even Cinderella started out by sweeping the floor. The price for Hughes' invitation to the Games? Being a mule for Russian rival and reigning world champion IRINA SLUTSKAYA, inset. The two share a New York City dressmaker, and when the seamstress found out that Hughes...

This group benefited from a 15% to 20% drop in the incidence of breast cancer...

...would suggest that a political system as diabolical as Iran’s is not actually capable of holding any sort of “legitimacy” whatsoever. A nation that beheads gays, proclaims America “Great Satan,” and considers Jews to be sub-humans worthy of nuclear extermination is not worthy of respect, and should be shown none. Rather, it should not be allowed even the barest tatters of international legitimacy, and should be excoriated, openly mocked, humiliated, and systematically excluded from even the most basic functionings of the international system until...
