Thanksgiving At The White House
At the White House Thanksgiving dinner Thursday, there were no surprises on the menu. There was turkey and honey-baked ham, cornbread and oyster stuffing, sweet potato and mashed potatoes and six kinds of pie. Fifty guests were on the list, including staff, friends and family.Personal Rapid Transit: Future Or Elevated Fantasy?
Transportation planners are banking on a futuristic network of ecofriendly computer-automated pod cars as the next smart form of mass transit. Several U.S. cities are doing feasibility studies for personal rapid transit systems, and Britain's Heathrow Airport plans to launch its system in the spring.Jerusalem's Palestinians Allege Expulsion Campaign
Palestinians hope East Jerusalem will be the capital of their future state, but successive Israeli governments have stated that the city is the undivided capital of Israel. Now, Palestinians in East Jerusalem allege that there is a campaign being waged against them to divest them of their property through expulsions and demolitions to make the Israeli goal a reality.Report Accuses Catholic Church Of Abuse Cover-Up
A new report in Ireland — the second such report this year — says the Roman Catholic Church in the Dublin Archdiocese covered up decades of child abuse committed by priests. The inquiry accuses Catholic bishops of protecting the Church's reputation at the expense of the children in its care.'Avatar,' Family Films To Dominate Movie Screens
Vampires and werewolves are so last weekend. Get ready for the blue-tailed navie in a special-effects blowout called Avatar. The movie's claim that its special effects will be an industry game-changer has scared away the season's usual sci-fi and sorcery flicks. This December features mostly down-to-earth stories about families, romance, crime-solvers and the occasional singing chipmunk.Restaurant Owner Recalls Mumbai Attack
One year ago, 10 gunmen laid siege to the city of Mumbai, India, attacking hotels, a Jewish center and other sites. More than 160 people were killed. One of the locations targeted by the gunmen was the city's Leopold Cafe. Farzad Jehani, one of the owners of the cafe, says the cafe organized a live band, and many of those patrons present on the day of the attacks returned to mark the event.Virginia Couple Crashed White House Dinner
the Obama White House held its first state dinner Wednesday in honor of Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. It was an event full of pomp and circumstance, bringing together more than 300 dignitaries from the world of politics and entertainment. The guest list was exclusive, and the security tight. But a couple from Virginia managed to crash the event. Amy Zantzinger, social secretary for President George W. Bush from 2007-2009, says this might be the first time a White House party was crashed.Listeners Share Nontraditional Thanksgiving Stories
While many Americans strive for the usual Thanksgiving fare, some listeners revel in their own, idiosyncratic family traditions this time of year. Gene Koo goes to White Castle with friends every year, and Kim Kryzwy serves up a Charlie Brown Thanksgiving feast for her kids for the second meal of the day.Top German Officials Quit Over Afghan Airstrike
The head of Germany's armed forces and a senior official from the defense ministry resigned Thursday following allegations the ministry withheld information about civilian casualties sustained during an airstrike in Afghanistan in September. Christian Thiels, senior defense correspondent for the German television network ARD, says the two officials who resigned knew of the civilian casualties.In N.Y. Museum, Renewable Materials On Display
Store shelves these days are packed with products claiming to be "eco-friendly." But it's hard to know exactly what that means. An exhibition in New York tackles that question with the help of 10 top designers. The Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum — together with the Nature Conservancy — asked the designers to create surprising products out of renewable materials from 10 different areas in the world.Forums
