...Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach, the value of property has plummeted so much that in some instances, banks are willing to take less than one-third of a property's value just to staunch the flow of money being spent on taxes and condo fees for unoccupied units. For example, Zalewski the grave dancer is looking at purchasing a 1,800-sq.-ft condo with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the waterfront in a place just north of Miami. That unit sold to a speculator for $940,000 in 2006. The bank is asking $389,000 but will probably...

But Hebron, where 600 Palestinian forces rolled up over the weekend in shiny new white pick-up trucks, is far more dangerous, because it is a stronghold of Hamas and also the base of an extremist Jewish settler community. The Islamists see the new paramilitary unit as a U.S.- and Israeli-built proxy force to be used against them; while the settlers see the Palestinian security men as "terrorists in uniform," and are threatening an armed showdown...

By having such clandestine teams carrying out these strikes, the U.S. government restricts how many people inside the government are aware of the details, enabling Pentagon spokesmen to honestly say they know nothing about them...
...goal at 11:39 in the second period, freshman Rence Coassin put the game out of reach, with his first goal at the collegiate level coming at 16:53. Though the Crimson stayed in command of the game in the third period, the team’s power-play unit still was not able to capitalize on any of Quebec’s six penalties. With just five days remaining before Harvard opens the regular season, this weekend’s game did not settle which of Harvard’s three possible goalies should win the starting job. Freshmen...
