...international treaty from enriching uranium. Many international bodies have stressed the importance of preventing Iran from gaining nuclear weapons, with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) scheduled to consider referral of Iran to the United Nations (UN) Security Council today. With all of this in mind, one must wonder what IAEA chief Mohamed ElBaradei, winner of last year’s Nobel Peace Prize, was thinking when, as a recent Reuters article states, he “suggested in diplomatic circles that a compromise may lie in accepting small-scale enrichment in Iran in exchange for guarantees of no full...
...STAY IN TOUCH WITH HOW YOUNG BOYS, LIKE YOUR CHARACTERS ON SOUTH PARK, THINK? T.P. Yeah, sometimes I wonder. We still think like kids. Once you have kids, you think like a parent. You get a lot more protective. You start to think these kids are so beautiful, you can't see past your child's-- M.S. What a bastard your child is. [Laughs] T.P. We still believe that all people are born bad and are made good by society, rather than the opposite. M.S. Actually, I think that's where we're conservative...
...In2TV, an ad-supported lineup of six streaming-video channels featuring 300 episodes of such vintage series as Kung Fu, Growing Pains and Falcon Crest.

He is Mohammed al-Qahtani, the Saudi thought by U.S. counterterrorism officials to be the so-called 20th hijacker, the would-be fifth terrorist on the flight that crashed in a Pennsylvania field on 9/11. In a June 20, 2005, cover story, TIME chronicled part of the interrogation of al-Qahtani, based on a highly classified log kept at Guantánamo over a 50-day period in the winter of 2002-03. The 84-page log, available in full on TIME.com showed U.S. interrogators using a wide range of tactics...
...home. Alas, a similar problem plagues Nigeria. Those born in the 1970s who left to study in Britain and the U.S. now want to return home and apply the skills and business practices learned in the West. But their enthusiasm is met with scorn, suspicion and envy. I wonder whether Nigerians feel betrayed or fear the Western work ethic. Like the Indians, we are success stories in our adopted homes but not in the land of our birth. They say a prophet is never honored in his homeland, but they also say charity must begin at home.
