Top Of Page Page 650 Parents
772 wordsFirst impressions of Steedman's Exiles left me feeling as if the woman had a lot of sour grapes to deal with.

Bush Jiang Zemin presidential summit meeting in Shanghai on October 19 along the sidelines of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Leaders Meeting. This was not because a great deal was accomplished, but because of Jiang's extremely modest definition of what constituted a successful meeting.
