...homicides that cannot be construed as self-defense. In 2006 a 72-year-old client threatened a 23-year-old prostitute with a gun. She grabbed the gun from him, and did not flee, but instead chose to shoot the man. Although clearly under stress, why did the young woman need to kill an old man who was obviously no longer a threat? Even worse is the story of a man shooting a neighbor who banged on the door loudly during a dispute over garbage and, apparently, attempted to put his foot inside the man?...
...simmering hostility was stirred again after the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan in October 2001 and boiled over, more recently, with drone missile strikes inside Pakistan's tribal territory in which dozens of suspected terrorists - and civilians - died. The Feb. 3 conviction in New York City of a Pakistani woman scientist, Aafia Siddiqui, nicknamed Lady al-Qaeda, on charges of trying to shoot Americans in Afghanistan has also ignited anger in Pakistan against the U.S. The verdict was decried by Pakistan's President Asif Ali Zardari and lawmakers and sparked anti-U.S. protest rallies in Lahore.

When the woman spins around and lands gracefully on her razor-thin blades, as fluid as a diver entering the water without a splash, that's an even more impressive feat. These skaters...

During the ol' death spirals, the lesser teams tend to dodge the risky part: the woman's head rests comfortably above the ice. (See TIME's full coverage of Vancouver...
...singer Victoria Legrand and atmospheric instrumentals by bandmate Alex Scally. Each song was wrapped in a thick, dark haze, all lazy drum-machine beats, ghostly organs and retro synth lines. If you were ever to hear one in a movie, it would be as background music to a mysterious woman dancing in the twilight. By album No. 2, Devotion, that sound was so rigidly set that it seemed as if the duo had run slowly but beautifully into a dead end. Why mess with perfection...
