WASHINGTON — Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., the liberal icon who has spent more than four decades at the forefront of social change efforts in Congress, has been diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor, physicians at Boston's Massachusetts General Hospital said Tuesday.......

Good wishes were conveyed by the presidential candidates. Hundreds of phone calls, 19 bouquets and more than 2,500 e-mails reached Kennedy's office. King Abdullah II of Jordan sent an orchid.

Default Interfaith Work Fit for a Queen

by Eboo Patel
(founder and executive director of the Interfaith Youth Core, a Chicago-based international nonprofit that promotes interfaith cooperation)

I first met Her Majesty Queen Rania of Jordan three years ago at the Clinton Global Initiative, where we served on a panel together. My wife could not stop commenting on her radiant beauty. But what I found most striking about her was her intelligence. She used her few minutes on that panel to speak about three things in particular.

ISLAMABAD, May 25 (APP): Pakistan and Jordan will soon sign a “Free Trade Agreement” (FTA) to enhance their economic and trade ties, meeting the common aspirations of their people. This was stated by the ambassador of Jordan Dr. Saleh Ahmed Al Jawarneh on the occasion of the 62nd Independence Day of his country being celebrated on May 25...............
It reflects from the fact that the Queen of Jordan Her Majesty Rania Al Abdullah, immediately came to Pakistan to offer aid and moral support to the victims of the devastating earthquake that hit it in 2005, he added.
Associated Press Of Pakistan - Pakistan-Jordan to sign Free trade agreement: Jawarneh

How wonderful for the Queen's Kashmir visit to have been mentioned specifically.
