| Best Buy hates "Christmas" |
Washington, D.C. - Many retailers learned the hard way last year that it just doesn't pay to mess with Christmas. Target, Wal-Mart, Macy's and Sears are among the stores that made a mid-season shift from the generic "Happy Holidays" to "Merry Christmas," according to Concerned Women for America.

Russian President
Vladimir Putin |
MURRIETA, CA – President Vladimir Putin, hosting the G8's first summit in Russia, hopes to use the meeting to showcase his country's new assertive global posture, but at the same time may be closing the doors to religious freedom in Russia.
John Livoti, Eastern European Outreach (EEO) New England Representative and team leader for seven years, was denied entry into Russia on this mission trip this month.
Livoti arrived at Moscow's Domodevodo airport on July 4th with a valid entry visa in his passport issued by the Russian Embassy in Washington D.C.
Despite this fact, and with no explanation whatsoever, Russian authorities denied Livoti entrance into the country.
