TO GO WITH FEATURE STORY ALGERIA BEACHES, 2003-07-25 (photo)

Youth shoot across the sea on jet ski water scooters near women in  traditional clothing watching their children swim at the Palm Beach  Club in Algiers July 25, 2003. It is the summer of 2003 and the scars  from a decade of Islamist extremist-linked violence that left between  100,000 and 150,000 people dead in the oil-rich north African country  are almost no longer visible. Temperatures soar above 40 degrees  Celsius and people are back on Algeria's beaches escaping the town's  heat and having fun. TO GO WITH FEATURE STORY ALGERIA BEACH  REUTERS/Zohra Bensemra    ZB/WS
