...Tigers, whose four-game winning streak ended in a 9-0 loss to Trinity, are coming off a win against Williams. Princeton welcomes the return of junior David Letourneau, who missed the previous matchup against the Crimson due to injury and will play at the number two spot tomorrow afternoon. The Tigers expect the rematch between West and Princeton freshman Todd Harrity, the second and third ranked players in the nation, respectively, to be competitive as well...
...Eileen Blackmer, whose Tea Party group in West Central Florida is called the Pinellas Patriots, the issue is trust. She doesn't have any left for the federal government. The answer, therefore, is a smaller government on a very short constitutional leash, with less spending and balanced budgets. Blackmer was galvanized to action by the debate over health care.

Nonetheless, her publishing company, Ullstein, seemed to care about the possible legal ramifications of her actions...
...because it demonstrated the chronic weakness of Obama's Middle East strategy. As soon as he was inaugurated, the President went directly for the big prize: a comprehensive two-state solution. But the timing was lousy. The Israelis had just elected a right-wing government led by Benjamin Netanyahu, whose coalition partners were vehemently opposed to negotiations. The Palestinians were fiercely divided between Fatah, which controls the West Bank, and the more militant Hamas. U.S. envoy George Mitchell's slow-moving effort to start talks tanked because of Israel's unwillingness to stop building illegal settlements on Palestinian land...
