Even if the end result is positive taking drug dealers off the street, for instance the duplicitous nature of police officers going undercover makes many uncomfortable. This is especially true when cops pose as journalists to gain the trust of suspects. A case put before the Canadian Superior Court on Monday argues that ...

Pravda... Women's honest answers to men's stupid questions. 45739.jpegContrary to popular stereotype that women love to ask silly questions, it is men who hold the palm in the art of dumbfounding their companions with odd questions.

In 1939, one of Jim Wrights classmates penned a prescient note in the high school yearbook, predicting that, in 1955, Congressman Wright would deliver the most erudite speech heard in the Congressional Hall. Sixteen years later, in 1955, Mr. Wright arrived in Washington as the newly elected U.S. representative from the 12th District of Texas. It was the beginning of a 34-year congressional career that fulfilled a boyhood dream and ended with his becoming the 48th speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives. Even after that part of his career collapsed in 1989, Mr. Wright portrayed himself as a lucky man. I got to do in life what I set out to do, ...

Under the Taliban's strict ban, poppies were virtually eradicated in 2001, but production levels have ...

There was once a small brick barbeque joint on Divisadero Street in San Francisco known as Da Pitt. Its customer base was small, but loyal, comprised mostly of low-income African-American families. Though no one travelled more than walking distance to get there, nor wrote about it on Urbanspoon, it fed its community and it was loved. But the neighborhood gentrified, the community dwindled, and DaPitt could no longer serve enough BBQ to pay its rent. Another company, 4505 Meats, took over the space. They put wood tables outside and painted the exterior. They added a vegetarian sandwich, an organic salad, and beers on tap to the menu. They hired young, bearded, and beanied ...
