That's a small concern, however, since easyCruise passengers don't stay aboard much anyway. Aimed at youth travelers interested in island hopping and sampling Greek nightlife, the ship offers a floating party experience, taking 170 passengers to popular holiday destinations they might not be able to visit otherwise. Putting into port at Aegean islands like Mykonos and Paros--or undiscovered isles like Folegandros--travelers have an afternoon of fun ashore and then party the night away before setting sail for the next destination. What's the catch? Passengers must book at least two nights on any predetermined route...
...What would you say is the single biggest challenge Jordan must overcome in the next decade and how would you address it? -Waheed Din in Houston With 70% of our population under the age of 30, creating opportunities for our youth is one of most pressing challenges, and is the overriding motivation of everything that we do. Because the youth are the catalysts for real change. For that reason, our main priority is innovation and education. We are focused on achieving excellence and pushing the boundaries of education, and giving our young children not only the skills to know what...
...right. In Europe, any such optimism was overwhelmed by a half-century of war and talk of war. The view of a German lieutenant colonel, Baron Colmar von der Goltz, in 1883 that "the strength of a nation lies in its youth," was pretty much shared by all the muscle-flexing European powers of that era (though few were crass enough to argue, as he did, that armies needed the young because "it is only the young that depart from life without pangs.") World War I ultimately spent the lives of as many as 3 million of Europe's adolescents...
...1920s, that generational dissent was mostly expressed either in the arts (Jean Cocteau, Fritz Lang, Aldous Huxley) or in outright decadence (at the haunts of London's good-time toffs, say, or at just about any club in Berlin). But caught up in a renewed spiral to war, youths, many of them jobless, were soon being courted by political groups on the left and right. Nowhere more so than in Germany, where the Wandervogel, a popular, free-spirited, back-to-nature youth movement whose nonpolitical ideals had survived World War I, found itself hijacked in the '30s by the Hitler...
...contrast, Brown, who, barring any last-minute surprise, will succeed Blair this summer, represents continuity: as Chancellor of the Exchequer, he has steered British government economic policy for the past decade. Brown is unlike Sarkozy in that his ambition has been evident since his youth. The son of a Scottish Presbyterian minister, Brown so excelled at school that he was accepted into the University of Edinburgh at age 16, then worked his way up through the ranks of Britain's Labour Party at a time when it was still saddled with socialist dogma...
