...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.

...year?and years?to come, science coverage will continue to be part of the core of what we do. Look for our Mind/Body issue every year around this time, as well as our annual environmental issue in the spring, our fitness issue in June and our year-in-medicine wrap-up in the fall.

...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.

In the closing five minutes, as both teams skated in a fierce back-and-forth struggle to break the 2-2 deadlock, Zalewski beat sophomore goalie Kyle Richter for the second time...
...Pakistan's Tourism Ministry hasn't been trying. The survey I filled out was part of a two-year-long project that will wrap up this year. Pakistan has a great tourism website. And the country decided to make last year "Destination Pakistan 2007." But there's the rub. Last year was one of the most troubled in Pakistan's history. 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...
