...shoppers, says Jessica Caldwell, an analyst for Edmunds.com. "Chrysler's lack of small cars also hurt," she adds, nodding to the Clunker-program buyers' strong preference for fuel-efficient vehicles. Even struggling General Motors Corp., which also closed its factories after filing for bankruptcy and saw total sales drop year over year, reported a sales increase of 30% in August, when measured against the previous month. Overall, Chrysler sales were up a meager 5% compared with July and dropped 15% year over year, to fewer than 100,000 units...
...just didn't work. Compromising with God never does. There are a lot of people living in Haran. They call themselves Christians and they probably are, but they haven't gone all the way. It took Abraham 40 years to get to the point where he put his total trust...

The Taliban have gained control of vast swathes of Afghanistan's south and east over the past few years, prompting the U.S. to send an additional 21,000 troops to the country this year. With this supplication, there are now a total of 60,000 U.S. troops in the country to combat the resurgent Taliban.

The Commission says these low numbers harm the E.U.'s international standing and give the impression of a "Fortress Europe" when it comes to refugees...
...riddle of the Harappan script needs the involvement of people from all backgrounds. Wells, who was not part of Rao and Vahia's team, spent 15 years painstakingly examining the disparate body of Indus Valley artifacts and compiling what is now the largest database of Harappan signs - 676 in total. Even though no one knows the root language behind the script, he reckons greater cooperation and a monkish devotion to the task can slowly unravel more secrets. Wells and a colleague have already made significant progress in decoding the Harappan system of weight measurements. "What you need is to keep...
