Her diplomatic energy, not least in helping put together the multinational United Nations force now in Lebanon, has impressed in capitals from Washington to Europe. Her restiveness is clear. After the spring publication of the Winograd Commission’s interim report on the 2006 Lebanon war, which lambasted Prime Minister Ehud Olmert for lacking “judgment, responsibility and prudence,” Livni told him he should quit but did not resign herself.

I mean, they were absolutely everywhere. I tried to give my business to Maryann's or Java Joe's in Milton. Then I moved far, far away. Away from Dunks. Closer to truck stop coffee and powdered corn syrup solids for cream. Boy, did I miss that oppressive presence. Then, upon a trip to Seattle, I found the Starbucks presence even more oppressive. Lewis Black was right...you walk out of a Starbucks, and right across the street, is another Starbucks! So now, here in FL, I happily frequent Dunks again. It reminds me of the home I miss.
