Bush   Activities:US Election 2008   2008-07-31 Dignitaries attend grand party for Mandela's 90th QUNU, South Africa -- Songs, laughter, teasing and tender words marked Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday celebration Saturday as presidents, village elders and African royalty joined him for a festive luncheon on his rural homestead.   Nations:South Africa   People:Nelson Mandela   Source:(AP)   2008-07-19 Gore's Bold Plan to Save the Planet When I caught up with Al Gore at his home in Nashville last December, the former Vice President turned green guru was in a pensive mood. I was surprised - he was just finishing his Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech, which he was due to give in Stockholm a few days later. For a man who had lost the Presidency in the most agonizing way possible, winning the Nobel should have offered some consolation. But when I asked Gore if he felt vindicated, he shook his head. "It's hard to celebrate recognition of an effort that has thus far failed," he said. He was referring to his work not only to awaken the world to the danger of climate change, but to get us to really do something about it. "I'm not finished, but thus far, I have failed. We have all failed."   Nations:U.S. Sweden   People:Al Gore John Warner   Source:(Time)   2008-07-18 China demands Dalai Lama prove his intentions BEIJING - China demanded that the Dalai Lama prove he does not support Tibetan independence and disruption of the Beijing Olympics during the latest round of talks with the spiritual leader's representatives, state media reported Thursday.   Nations:China   People:Dalai Lama Nicolas Sarkozy   Activities:2008 Dalai Lama Talk   Source:(AP)   2008-07-03 Headlines Myanmar's Suu Kyi allowed rare visit by lawyer 2008-08-10 Gore likely to star at Democratic convention 2008-07-31 Dignitaries attend grand party for Mandela's 90th 2008-07-19 Gore's Bold Plan to Save the Planet 2008-07-18 China demands Dalai Lama prove his intentions 2008-07-03 Tibet party boss delivers attack on Dalai Lama 2008-07-02 World leaders turn the screw on Mugabe 2008-06-26 China displays iron grip as Olympic torch tours Tibet 2008-06-22 Analysis: Will McCain's Carter link ring true? 2008-06-20 Seven arrested in protest on Suu Kyi's 63rd birthday 2008-06-19 Don't expect Gore on campaign trail 2008-06-18 Archbishop Tutu urges US Senate to pass AIDS bill 2008-06-18 U.N. had to work with Myanmar junta, aid chief says 2008-06-09 U.S. emissions bill a "first step": U.N. climate chief 2008-05-30 Court rejects appeal by ex-Illinois Gov.
