A 72-year-old woman awoke from her slumber late Sunday morning to quite a surprise. She found a young woman in the guest bedroom, sleeping in her husband's pajamas.

The 11-minute, 23-second video features the audio message by al-Zawahri, who appears only in a still image, along with other images, including one of Obama wearing a Jewish skullcap.

First of all, a demo tape that runs nearly 12 minutes would be too long for a busy program director looking for new talent. He needs...

According to the segment, President Bush had received preferential treatment in being admitted to the Guard, and once in, had served dishonorably....

Like when it's raining and cold. You just want to be cozy," said Ben Lomond High School junior Elvia Escalante, 16. School administrators in Ogden, Weber and Davis school districts say the pajamas have been modest and there hasn't been a problem. "There are worse things a kid could wear to school," said Ross Lunceford, principal of Hillcrest Elementary School in Ogden. "There's...
