“Senator Sinema, Senator Manchin, our future hinges on your decision and history will remember what choice you make,” King’s 13-year-old granddaughter, Yolanda Renee King, said during a news conference in Washington, D.C. after the annual peace walk honoring her grandfather, who was assassinated in 1968. The Senate, where Democrats have a razor-thin hold on control, is set to hold a vote on the legislation as soon as this week. Manchin and Sinema both say that they support the measures, which seek to update the Voting Rights Act and create new protections from restrictions on voting, but they don’t support a push to side-step the filibuster to do so....

The visiting side was looking to recover from last week’s dramatic derby loss to the LA Galaxy but was dispatched in ruthless style, despite having more shots and possession than the host. Chris McCann was sent off for a foul on Benny Feilhaber in the first minute, but referee Ted Unkel downgraded the punishment to a booking following a video review. Atlanta did not look back from that early boost, with Julian Gressel breaking the deadlock 17 minutes in before Josef Martinez made it 2-0 with a header midway through the second half....

The counterrevolution is defined by the title of her bold new book, ““A Return to Modesty: Discovering the Lost Virtue.’’ It is a 23-year-old’s insouciant manifesto for mature eroticism. As a call for women to wield their potential power to transform society–socializing men by teaching them true manliness–it is much more ambitious than the banal political agendas of contemporary feminism. Effervescent and almost petite, Shalit–imagine Katie Couric with Edith Wharton’s mind–looks younger than she is, but argues like a seasoned veteran of the culture wars....

Bush was inviting India out of the doghouse, which it had inhabited since first testing an atom bomb in May 1974, and into the world’s most exclusive clubhouse: the nuclear-weapons states.

To make this happen, of course, would involve a difficult series of reciprocal steps by New Delhi and Washington....
Benefits of Surgery There are many treatments for skin cancer, from excising moles to freezing portions off. These methods can end with a return of the skin cancer, though, and Mohs surgery offers a solution that can be more permanent. By examining each layer of skin removed under a microscope, your surgeon will keep removing layers of tissue until they are certain that all the cancerous cells have been removed. Additional areas of removal are minimal, too, with surgeons going just beyond the tumor borders—typically just 1 millimeter (mm) to 2 mm beyond the margins....
