...Bravo, TIME, for the year-end wrap-up and Person of the Year selection. Putin has so far served his country well, but he reminds me of the classic Western movie sheriff who is brought in to clean up a town and then becomes a bigger bad guy than the bad guys he was asked to eliminate. Putin was weaned by the KGB, and I anticipate the worst from him. His very expression is off-putting. I'm 80 years old, not a profane person and quite benign in my declining years. But when I opened the magazine...
...execute a lot better than we did—certainly get more pucks offensively to the net in the third period.”But the Knights’ Steve Zalewski owned the third period, recording a hat trick.

Terrorist attacks became a weekly?sometimes daily?occurrence. President Pervez Musharraf dismissed the Supreme Court Chief Justice (twice!), triggering massive street protests. Swat Valley, a picturesque tourist spot renowned for its skiing and trout fishing...
...their front ends roll through Baghdad, America's tax dollars in action, a panorama of monstrous battle cats going anywhere they want. It was never like this before. Back then, you could at least see the fresh faces of young American soldiers, even if their eyes were obscured by wrap-around Oakleys. Now their faces are steel plates, their eyes electronic sensors...
