  • ZIMMERMAN TRIAL

    Zimmerman trial: Man carrying loaded handgun shoots and kills unarmed teen

    BY ROBERTO MARTINEZ

    I am troubled with what I perceive to be the failure to focus on the obvious in the death of the teenage boy in the trial of George Zimmerman.

    Zimmerman case: Take TV cameras out of courtrooms

    BY KATHLEEN PARKER

    As a courtroom junkie since my early reporting days, it is at great personal sacrifice that I suggest the following: It may be time to get television cameras out of the courtroom.

  • PEACE PROCESS

    Israeli peace process on hold

    BY MICHAEL GERSON

    The Green Line — across which generations of Israelis and Palestinians have fought and haggled — was given its name because the United Nations mediator, Ralph Bunche, used a green pencil to draw the cease-fire boundary in 1949.

Having experienced a life-changing injury myself, I can attest to the public and private sides of paralyzing spinal cord injuries, and I can tell you that every bit of encouragement and hope is vital to recovery.

  • LATIN AMERICA

    In Latin America, surprising progress on crime

    BY LUIS ALBERTO MORENO

    In their recent trips to Latin America and the Caribbean, President Obama and Vice President Biden were right to focus on the economic opportunities in a region whose prospects have never been brighter. Despite the global economic crisis, more than 70 million of our citizens have escaped poverty in the last 10 years, and the number of middle-class families could double within a generation.
