Always be honest when describing yourself and your past, but do not unnecessarily bias potential readers against you. Serious mistakes in your past will come to light eventually, and its better to let readers know if you have, for instance, a criminal history. If you’re less than forthright, you might find yourself making an awkward confession later and be forced to explain why you didn’t mention it up front. Show, don’t tell, your personality with descriptive info....

The Iraq war is full of contradictions. It’s a high-tech conflict fought against low-tech weapons like sniper rifles and improvised bombs. American troops may sleep in tents or old Iraqi buildings without electricity, but many also have regular access to the Internet, which has become a lifeline to home. Even some of those stationed in the roughest areas can help make family decisions via e-mail, watch videos of their children’s activities or do their banking and holiday shopping online....

While speaking to Newsmax on Sunday’s Wake up America show, Morris promoted his latest book The Return: Trump’s Big 2024 Comeback, and he explained why he was so confident in the former president’s chances of returning to the White House. So far, Trump has only hinted that he would be making a presidential run in 2024 and has not made an official announcement. “The phrase is not ’likely’, the phrase is dead pipe certain: He’s certain to run, and he is, I believe, certain to get the Republican nomination, Morris said....

For Trump, there are two broad pathways to maintaining power. First, we can already see very clearly a strategy designed to suppress voter turnout with the purging of registration rolls of large numbers of mostly urban voters; efforts to suppress mail-in ballots, which are more necessary than ever, given COVID-19; a re-election apparatus that is training 50,000 poll watchers for the purpose of challenging citizens’ right to vote on Election Day; and significant efforts to make in-person voting in urban areas as cumbersome as possible in order to have long lines that discourage people from exercising their voting rights....

NEWSWEEK: YOU were friends before you went into business together… BALLMER: We met sophomore year in college. We lived down the hall from each other in the Currier House at Harvard. I had heard about Bill from some of the other guys, because we were both into math and science-type stuff. GATES: I was completely opposite of Steve in that! didn’t believe in going to classes at all. There was a group who would sort of waste time, sit in my room, talk about things… But there were a couple of people who hung out in that group who’d gotten to know Steve and kept saying this guy is so dynamic, so energetic, you’d really like him....

In August 1946, Newsweek reported from Athens, Tennessee, where veterans of World War II had won their final—and most unexpected—battle, dislodging a corrupt political machine after a six-hour firefight. Reporters described “tension growing” through a “hot, still day” and “300 armed special deputies brought in by Sheriff Pat Mansfield to ‘guard’ the ballot boxes.” The scene sounded more like Germany or Japan than America: a voter shot for trying to cast a ballot; GI poll watchers arrested, assaulted and having to jump through glass to escape being held hostage....

That’s the question after the debate here. Rudy Giuliani and John McCain insiders tell me they’d be glad if the former Arkansas governor won the Iowa caucuses, because that would humiliate Mitt Romney, who has invested so much time and money there. Well, after the debate and a chat with Huckabee, here’s my advice to the mayor and the senator: be careful what you wish for. In a breakout performance, Huckabee matched his surge in the Iowa polls, and elsewhere, with a confident, easygoing performance at the CNN YouTube debate....

“I really believe it’s time for us to be relevant,” says Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze.
