recognized that Utah and Nevada should be united against the arrogance of the East Coast dumping its waste on the West.

Francis Fukuyama

President Bush has made some statements suggesting the US would accept whatever democratic outcome comes. Should the US be willing to do that, it suggests a major change in their position. But I think it is a little premature to assume that any real decision has been made. I think what they -- in the US administration -- are hoping for is a more gradual reform process in the Arab world, a more gradual expansion of political participation which Islamist groups do not use as an opportunity to come to power. So while I think there has been a shift in the US Middle East policy we will all have to wait to see how great that shift has been.

Regardless of what the state law says, parents should not allow their teen to ride with other teen drivers, nor should they be allowed to transport other teens in the first year of driving.

Neil Roberts

Referee says you're allowed to do that once. Each guy is allowed to do that once, what can you say - that's what the referee says. You're allowed one shot apiece, and I guess if you use 18, 20 guys, you're allowed 20 shots like that.
