People think that when a war is over, everything goes back to normal. But in Kosovo, the security situation remains questionable for minorities.
I am a working mother who has set goals to accomplish a lot in this world. I want my wardrobe to be beautiful, sexy and comfortable ? all at the same time. St. John is all of those things.
I personally feel like, if you're watching a film about war, you should get a sense of what it's really like.
It's angering that not everybody has signed this treaty to ban landmines. It's disgusting, it really is, because it is fact that (mines) hurt a high percentage of civilians. They're not effective in any other real way. They've enough weapons for war.

I'm just thrilled to have this opportunity to help bring this to the forefront of peoples' minds this week... It is a rare occasion that I am really thanking the press.
These people have received aid but they are very far out, and they are very concerned about the winter coming,
This is crazy. I was looking at this. You just made my day.
