When we're talking about disengagement from Judea and Samaria, whenever it is, it will be a civilian disengagement only, he said. The move will start to take shape immediately with the establishment of a Kadimaled government.The comments, which drew fire from Likud and Labor, come after a pair of opinion polls indicated an erosion of support for Kadima. Founded by Sharon after his unilateral evacuation from Gaza split Likud, frontrunning Kadima has run a colorless campaign up until now, analysts say.They've been running a very general campaign without many specifics, that could be why they started to lose latitude, says Sam Lehman Wilzig, a political science professor at Bar Ilan University near Tel Aviv.They have a dilemma here: on the one hand there are questions of what they really stand for and, 'Where's the beef?' The problem is that they might lose more voters if

Although Mr. Peretz's One Nation faction recently merged with the Labor party, he announced Tuesday that he would remain in opposition even if Labor joined the government.There are tensions as well over the pace of the withdrawal. Although some members of the Labor Party would like to go further and faster than Sharon will, they have come to a grudging acceptance that the combination of building a wall down the West Bank and dismantling settlements in Gaza is a sort of acknowledgment of the landforpeace compromise they argued for all along.I think that Sharon, in spite of his impossible coalition, is moving forward, says Mr. Diskin. The fence is there because the fence is part of disengagement, and the fence gives up, de facto, part of the territories.Not enough, however, to satisfy Palestinians and other opponents of the fence.

And while most surveys show that the majority of Americans oppose gay marriage, even legislatures in states known for their social conservatism have failed to impose gaymarriage bans.In Georgia, lawmakers last month failed to enact a ban on gay marriage. The legislature will take up another vote Wednesday.But the very nature of American federalism, in which states approach legislation in their own way, means that the nation's legal confrontation with gay marriage will be drawn out. Each state has their own procedure for amending constitutions. In some constitutions, it can be as easy as passing a law, says Mr. Abramowitz.Over the coming months, India will unveil a firstofitskind encyclopedia of 30 million pages, containing thousands of herbal remedies and eventually everything from indigenous constru

Speak with authority, but stay calm.Other workshops teach the patrolmen safe driving skills, or suggest ways they may turn down proffered bribes.But in a city where starting salaries for police are as low as 4,000 pesos ($410) a month, even the academy director admits the temptation to accept bribes is high.I've been wearing this uniform for 32 years, says Torres. And I can tell you, it is not an easy life.In addition to taking bribes from passing motorists, some of Mexico City's men and women in uniform have been accused of being on the payroll of local restaurants, bars, and drug traffickers.Police themselves complain that they have to pay their commanders to move up the ranks, or to get assigned to lucrative patrols in nightlife districts where opportunities for dirty money abound.Experts agree the fastest way to solve the problem would be to boost police salaries, and raise the basic standards of those accepted on the force.
