George W Bush makes plea to Kim Jong-Il By Alex Spillius in Washington Last Updated: 2:52am GMT 07/12/2007 Six years after branding North Korea as part of the "axis of evil", President George W Bush has made an unprecedented personal appeal to Kim Jong-Il, the North Korean leader, to disclose and disable his nuclear programme. The letter, on Dec 1, which the White House described as Mr Bush's first direct communication with Kim, came amid growing concern that Pyongyang will not meet a Dec 31 deadline to reveal all about its nuclear agenda, 15 months after it stunned the world...

The statement comes after the Daily Mail reported that the family’s spokesman, Clarence Mitchell, confirmed: "part of the donations ... had been used to help with mortgage payments".

Mission resident Richard Kemp is used to people stopping and staring at his Madeline. The 53-year-old, in fact, relishes the attention he gets when people ask him about the companion that he has shared his life with for the past 11 years. Of course, this one doesn’t spend money. She just demands it. Lots of it. About $90,000. Madeline is no lady; she’s a tank. A 1944 olive-drab Sherman tank with twin diesel engines that rattle when she starts up. She doesn’t purr like her successors; instead, she lets out loud gurgles and burps — symbolic of an era when...

Greenfield - The alderman who insists upon keeping a mannequin in his City Hall office says he's the victim of a double standard, since the Fire Department keeps a mannequin and the police chief used to have three.
