...There are four lavatories aboard our Airbus A320, and a $1 service fee to use them. Correct change is always appreciated." No, it hasn't come to that yet. But JetBlue, an airline initially known for its innovative service and comfy planes, has taken the current mania for bolt-on fees to a new altitude by imposing a $7 charge for a pillow-and-blanket set.

Radovan Karadzic's last lair wasn't a cave or a safe house; no secret bolt-holes or special security details shielded him.

Domingo Ramirez is a cutter on the tie-factory floor. He unrolls silk fabric from a long bolt and smooths it out on the cutting table. Then he lays down a cardboard pattern, draws a chalk outline and cuts the material with a circular knife. Like cutters around the world, Ramirez does this a hundred times a day.
