The presidency's statement which directed [Goodluck Ebele Jonathan] to continue to oversee the affairs of state while [Umaru Yar]'adua completes his recuperation indicated that Yar'adua does not recognize him as acting president. "While the president completes his recuperation, Vice President Jonathan will continue to oversee the affairs of state," the statement said. JONATHAN was made acting president by a resolution passed by both chambers of the National Assembly when Yar'adua failed to transmit a letter of medical vacation to the legislature as required by section 145 of the 1999 Constitution, more than two inonths after he went to Saudi Arabia. It wasn't clear whether Yar'adua's return has autoinatically abated the National Assembly's resolutions. President Yar'adua wishes to reas...

BY MID-2007, Rachel Mitchell's husband, the family breadwinner, had finally found work. // In favor of steady work at a significant pay cut, he'd dropped an exhaustive hunt for a comparable job since becoming unemployed the year before . Though Mitchell had picked up some slack with all the freelance book keeping she could find, bills piled up . Their children had needs, and neither husband nor wife could able to hold out for the "ideal" job - one that covered expenses as his always had.
The foreign policy of the United States is on hold, as the nation continues to fly blind - with neither a clear exit nor entry strategy to save us from the shoals of unnecessary foreign military engagement. And the world is on hold as it waits for our presidential candidates to sort out an exit strategy from Iraq, and perhaps begin to think about when entry for humanitarian or other considerations is or is not advisable. To get us out of standstill mode, the press needs to be prepared to ask hard questions. Otherwise, we are doomed to go from one misadventure to another.
A South Carolina federal judge has clearly identified the options for the Bush administration's handling of Jose Padilla: charge him, release him or appeal. The Department of Justice, which labeled Padilla as an "enemy combatant," has held him in a naval brig for two years without filing charges against him. The problem is, Padilla is an American citizen entitled to constitutional protections. S. District Judge Henry Floyd has ruled that "the president has no power, neither express nor implied, neither constitutional nor statutory, to hold petitioner as an enemy combatant." The Justice Department plans an appeal.

LARAMIE -- It was a game of spurts and streaks, though not the kind of streaks any coach hopes for. Neither Washington State coach Dick Bennett nor University of Wyoming coach Steve McClain will hold up Wednesday's game at the Arena-Auditorium as an example of how to play the game.
Notice is hereby given that the State of Minnesota is revising its approved public water system supervision program for four major rules. EPA has determined that these revisions are no less stringent than the corresponding Federal regulations. Therefore, EPA intends to approve these revisions. This approval action does not extend to public water systems in Indian Country, as the term is defined in 18 U.S.C. 1151. By approving these rules, EPA does not intend to affect the rights of federally recognized Indian Tribes in Minnesota, nor does it intend to limit existing rights of the State of Minnesota. Any interested person may request a public hearing. A request for a public hearing must be submitted to the Regional Administrator at the address shown below by April 16, 2012. If a substant...

Dec. 1 marked the 20th anniversary of Ukraine's independence referendum. More than 90 percent of Ukraine's population voted that day in 1991 to affirm the parliament's independence declaration, thus cementing the dissolution of the Soviet state and the rise of a free and independent Ukraine. With the Soviet hold lifted, Ukraine was viewed by many as a state with great economic potential and one with potentially great social and political vibrancy. Ukraine, however, has fallen short. A common view now is that it is a stalled state, unable to move forward on major economic reform and with a fraying democratic fabric. In truth, Ukraine is not the failure many portray it to be, nor is its success as easy or guaranteed as early observers believed.

I don't pen this column to challenge Egyptian President Mubarak's behavior throughout his three decades in power. His conduct, and the people's response to it, is now well documented. Something's wrong when a country's leader can stand in the middle of a market square, with television cameras rolling, and declare in the name of some authority that he is claiming private property on behalf of "the people of Venezuela." Yet this is exactly what happens with Hugo Chavez. In countries such as China, such freedoms are neither common nor guaranteed. One legal observer recently stated that China's constitution is nearly silent on the taking of private property for public use. To which another mockingly stated that the U.S. Constitution also contains but a few lines on the subject in the Fifth ...
