Senate Hearings on Darfur, Sudan
Today was a very important day where the Senate heard testimony from Special Envoy to Sudan Scott Gration. More on this soon, but for now here is a short article followed by an opening remarks by Senator John Kerry’s.
If you’d like, think of this as the Wizengamut having a hearing about how to proceed now that Voldemort has returned. Let’s hope the US Senate and Scott Gration come to a better conclusion than the Ministry of Magic.

I’ve been hearing the turn ‘carrots vs. sticks’ or ‘carrots and sticks’ a lot lately, particularly in reference to this, I’m not exactly sure what it means, and I was wondering if anyone could clear that up for me.

I’m fairly sure carrots and sticks means using rewards or punishments to influence someone’s behavior
