Associated Press July 14, 2006 HEILIGENDAMM, Germany - President Bush has a straightforward message for Russian leader Vladimir Putin and world leaders at their summit: when possible, speak with a single voice in combating crises such as the flare-up in the Middle East.
It is Bush's fierce support for Israel that is putting him at odds with some members of the Group of Eight nations. The president also is pressing his case with Putin that Russia should be more tolerant of political liberties and a free press. Bush says he will make his point in a respectful way. Comment: "Speak with a single voice", "too many cooks in the kitchen"... In other words, the Bush administration wants to be the only voice and the only cook in the kitchen.

The Independent 14 July 2006 Seventy years on from the start of the Spanish Civil War, Madrid is trying to come to terms with its past by rescuing - and making public - millions of documents from around the world that help shed light on one of the darkest periods in its history.
As the country prepares to remember the beginning of the war next week, the government has published an array of diplomatic reports, personal letters, documentary films and secret police files held in 12 countries including Britain, Russia, France, Mexico and the United States which will reveal much that has remained unknown for decades. |

AP National Writer Tue Jul 11, 2006 It can be hard to get people to face the truth sometimes. Especially about lying. You don't want your kids to eat too much, so you say all the cookies are gone. You don't feel like going out, so you tell your date something important came up. You're overloaded with errands, so you call in sick.
Lies, all of them - but we don't really like calling them that. In a new Associated Press-Ipsos poll, over half of respondents said lying was never justified. Yet in the same poll, up to two-thirds said it was OK to lie in certain situations, like protecting someone's feelings. |
