  Worldandnation: From corridors of power to Mississippi fish fry
From corridors of power to Mississippi fish fry
The governorship might be considered a step down for someone so familiar with the corridors of power: The job pays just more than $100,000 a year, which may be a lot of money in Mississippi but is not much to the Beltway crowd.
And the governor's powers are limited by a century-old state constitution that lets legislators dominate.

 Lifelong RN - 12/04/2002: Corridors of Power: The Networked Bureaucracy
In many ways it’s ironic that this crisis of confidence should come at a time when the corridors of power reverberate to the sound of public servants constantly intoning the mantras of ‘transparency’ and ‘accountability’.
The executive producer of Corridors of Power was Joe Gelonesi.
Corridors of Power is a co-production of Radio National and Open Learning Australia.

 Guest opinion: Creating corridors for power - billingsgazette.com
We must recognize the Western power grid is also fragile, as flouts in California and the Northwest have shown us in recent years.
As it stands now, if Montana wanted to sell surplus power to the folks in Seattle by expanding existing transmission lines, the states of Idaho and Washington, and in some cases the individual counties the lines would pass through would have the ability to kill the whole deal.
States along these corridors would and should have a voice in where those corridors would be located.

 How Lewinsky, at 22, Reached Corridors of Power   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
Monica Lewinsky, 22, found herself plucked from the vast, anonymous corridors of the Old Executive Office Building, where she sorted mail for the White House chief of staff, Leon Panetta, to Panetta's suites down the hall from the Oval Office.
Amid the blizzard of accusations, some of the most harmful to the president are accusations that after Lewinsky was served a subpoena on Dec. 17 in Paula Jones' sexual harassment suit against Clinton, the president's closest friend, Vernon Jordan, got Lewinsky a job in New York to secure her silence.
For if it was in Clinton's interest that Lewinsky swore under oath that she had not had an affair with him, it was Lewinsky who stood to gain by holding back her testimony until she secured a prestigious job.

 Analysis: Corridors of Power - A new pope - (United Press International)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
The document also urges the new pope to scale down both the power and size of the Roman Curia, the church's historic central government.
But the document argues that the Vatican's diplomatic activity is "one of the most disturbing remnants of the conception of the Church as a power among powers, and of the papacy as a 'monarchy.'"
The new pope is urged to revive the ecumenical effort set in motion by Vatican Council II, and in more general terms to embrace "an attitude of service (towards the Church) profound enough to cut through the thick, sticky slather of papal tradition in which the centuries have encrusted" the institution.

Once at the helm, Bashar will have many concerns related to the domestic and regional political legacy of his father's 30-year rule, and the political and economic future of Syria in general.
Other regional powers, primarily the Arab nations, may have to compromise their long-term interests.
Clearly, Bashar Al-Assad must have the opportunity to make his decision on the peace process without having to think of the economic worries that, as he well knows, could spin Syria into a vicious circle of instability.

 The corridors of power ... - Accountancy Age   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
But their policy on cutting public spending by Pounds 8bn was not helped by the alleged claim by Oliver Letwin, the shadow chief secretary, that Tories, in power would slash public spending by Pounds 20bn - a figure quickly denied by Mr Hague and shadow chancellor, Michael Portillo.
But there have been further setbacks to the Tories' taxation stance when the issue of VAT was raised.
The fact of the matter is that politicians don't want to make commitments which they may be forced to break, even reluctantly, once they are in power.

He looked more closely, seeing that her eyes were still ringed with dark smudges; the lingering tell-tale sign of the rampant Flu bug she’d only just recovered from in evidence, along with the trace of redness flushing her nose.
Without further comment the three team-mates had turned and sped off down the corridor, leaving Janet to stare after them, shaking her head and with a wry smile creasing her lips.
She turned back to her other patients who like Jack had been zapped by the powerful energy sparking from the gate as it discharged during the emergency.

 VH1.com : Movies : Movie : Corridors of Power : Plot
The six-part Australian miniseries Corridors of Power used broad comedy as a weapon against the less savory aspects of political gamesmanship.
Backbiting, deal-cutting, finagling, and outright prevaricating were par for the course, yet somehow the two main characters remained lovable in a rogue-ish sort of way.
Broadcast by Australia's ABC network, Corridors of Power originally aired from October 8 to November 12, 2001.

Those in power denied the problems; he was rebuked, ostracized and accused of playing political games.
The prospect of using municipal bankruptcy as a tool to resolve San Diego's fiscal crisis was first pushed off as the wild idea of reformers and political opponents of sitting City Hall leadership.
But the concept now is slowly easing its way from the fringe to the mainstream, as powerful downtown groups such as the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce contemplate its utility.

It embodies the modern Israeli spirit: the power to get things done, financial resources, good intentions and apathy all wrapped up in one.
It is clothing the land in a dress of concrete and cement in a way that the pioneers, who sang this popular song 70 and 80 years ago never imagined in their wildest nightmares.
It is a declaration of Israeli society's intention to close itself off behind ghetto walls, to give up on a connection with its neighbors and to disregard, because of an excessive sense of power, their needs and troubles.

There is broad agreement among the 191 U.N. members that the Security Council needs to be enlarged to reflect modern patterns of power in the world, but the question of how to do it has produced fault lines in the international community.
In an unusual demonstration of African diplomacy, the AU states want to increase the Security Council to 26 members, including six permanent members with two for Africa, and with veto power(the G4 is prepared to waive the veto power as the price for permanent seats).
But the Africans want their two permanent seats on a rotating basis, so that in effect the African Union will be the permanent member, and not any individual member state.

WASHINGTON — All last week, a stocky white-haired man could be seen prowling the corridors of the Capitol, a can of Diet Coke stuffed in his coat pocket, an American flag made of safety pins on his lapel.

Britain's corridors of power last week witnessed a rather unusual gathering of scientists and senior ministers who -- in the company of some potted plants -- assembled in 10 Downing Street to brief the prime minister, Tony Blair, on why science matters, the issues surrounding public investment in science and its policy implications.
The presentations were made in a series of tightly orchestrated, four-minute slots, delivered around the long, boat-shaped Cabinet table.
