...current initiatives an “attempt to pull off the most significant realignment of political power in our 232 year history.” Nevertheless, his tone remained inspirational and surprisingly upbeat. He concluded by encouraging those in attendance to “bring light and truth and freedom to this American discussion.” Motley said he was extremely pleased by the turnout for the event. The record number of attendees included representatives from the Harvard Kennedy School as well as the Harvard Business and Law Schools, Boston College, Wellesley, Tufts, and Brandeis, according to Motley...
...give consumers a taste of the flavor of the 60s and 70s, before high-fructose corn syrup replaced cane sugar in 1984.

In fact, about half its roughly 50-member crew is military.) "The Chinese, like the North Koreans, the Indians and the Soviets, maintain positive control of fishing fleets which come under military supervision in a crisis," McCreary said on NightWatch...
...stake. Studies estimate that nearly 95% of music downloaded around the globe in 2008 - 40 billion files - was illegal. That would suggest that a ban in France might not actually help French artists too much because their work could still be pilfered elsewhere. But the sad truth is that royalties for presidential buddies like withered rocker Johnny Hallyday or comic actor Christian Clavier still do come primarily from France. After all, who else really wants their stuff in the first place...
