2011: The Year in Pictures
ARAB SPRING The breath and hum of democracy seemed almost a libidinous thing in parts of the Middle East, but, in truth, the body heat had been simmering for years. The protests took hold in Tunisia in late 2010 after the street vendor Mohamed Bouazizi set himself on fire. The kindle caught and the spirit of his self-immolation lit a fuse across the region.

Season 2 Announcement
I have news: We are changing the schedule, so that now, new episodes of Season Two will come out every other week, instead of once a week. I know! I know...it’s maybe not what you wanted to hear. But, there’s a good and exciting reason, which is that we’re adding more material. This story goes in so many directions, and as we’re reporting it we’re getting access to more of the key people close to Bergdahl’s case, and to more information than we initially thought we would. Which is great.
Episode 04: The Captors
David Rohde, center, in Kandahar, a province in southern Afghanistan, in 2007. Tomas Munita/The New York Times/Redux There were many similarities between Rohde’s captivity and Bergdahl’s. The Haqqani network, a group aligned with the Taliban, held both men captive, for one. And both men were moved to various locations in North and South Waziristan, parts of the tribal region of Pakistan. But Rohde had two advantages over Bergdahl. ... Read More

New Yorkers’ Questions for the Mayoral Candidates
My fair tolling plan, which would reduce congestion, which I believe is choking many neighborhoods. By imposing tolls in bridges that have a lot of mass transit options, you would keep a lot of trucks off the street.
