...about why they like her, but they do love her. One says Dole is "so much like Jesse," another marvels at how Dole's "mother over there in Salisbury is 101 years old," while a white-haired gentleman gushes over "what a pretty lady she is." He puts a yellow pride in tobacco hat on her head. She takes...
...loved ones, and the U.S. government has made some payments. Apart from their outrage at U.S. mistakes, Afghan civilians are frustrated by the plodding pace of the international relief effort.

...summit of Namsan the megalopolis of Seoul sprawls before you. The historic part of town, with its complex of royal palaces, lies at the mountain's base just to the north, while to the south the Han River glitters on its way to the port of Incheon and the Yellow Sea. And just below, nestled in a sea of greenery, is a reminder of South Korea's unenviable honor as the final holdout in the Cold War: the Yongsan garrison, the joint headquarters of the United States Eighth Army and the United Nations Command for South Korea...
