This aging and dullness became most evident in the past few years, as Fatah first lost the 2006 legislative elections to Hamas, and then its presence in the Gaza Strip.

After standing for 6 hours, Antonio's legs became stiff.

The Conference on Disarmament remains deadlocked.

Isn't it ironic that Christians who claim to believe in an infinite, unknowable being then tie God down in closed systems and rigid doctrines?

While the peace and reconciliation process is at an impasse, the socio economic and humanitarian situation of the country continues to deteriorate, directly affecting the people of Côte d'Ivoire.

Today s flux in the Middle East is a highly ambivalent affair, because the situation can improve or (more likely) deteriorate. But one thing is certain if the present impasse continues, the situation will only get worse.
