...will hack costs, Bill Ford knows the real question is whether his company can produce cars that have the quality, style and value that drivers want. The biggest challenge is "to restore a sense of confidence, both externally and internally, in the company," he says. Despite an emotional new ad campaign that stresses innovation, the turnaround is complicated. Brands like Toyota have better reputations; their cars resell for as much as $2,500 more than American cars, according to Ronald Tadross, auto analyst with Banc of America Securities. "Ford has a revenue problem, not a cost problem. Their products just...
...Nominee Samuel Alito for his membership in the conservative group Concerned Alumni of Princeton (CAP). Though Kennedy’s disassociation with the Owl was likely motivated by political expedience, it was an appreciated gesture. We have expressed our distaste for the offensive and antiquated nature of final clubs ad nauseam.

Another part is indelibly indie: he will shoot an ad-lib HBO series about lobbyists (K Street), or remake a mystical Russian sci-fi art film (Solaris). Not everything works, but it's more than cool that he tries...
...what exactly have 40 years of experimental pharmacology done to them? It would not have been possible--much less ethical--to recruit subjects when the 1960s drug circus got started, send them off for four decades of substance abuse and bring them back for study. But now that the ad hoc longitudinal experiment those aging boomers have been conducting on themselves is reaching its endgame, addiction experts are pouncing on what the doctors and psychiatrists treating the abusers are learning. What they uncover may help not only the surviving victims of the early drug years but younger users as well...
