...does? Nowak, of course, is through as an astronaut. Just as important, she's through as an icon-and she was a very good one. A 43-year-old Naval Academy graduate and married mother of three, she managed the demographic hat trick of career, motherhood and military. No buzz-cut, fists-on-hips Al Shepard or Deke Slayton was better suited to his era than Nowak was to hers...
...South Korea's Chosun Ilbo. It's in an exclusive waterfront development, but save for a sunflower image painted on its tile wall, "his" place looks identical to those around it. We ring the doorbell, but no one shows. A security guard gives us a dirty look, so we buzz off. Our options dwindling, we decide to call off our search. Perhaps we should have followed the lead of Nippon Television's Norihisa Kabaya, whom we had run into earlier that morning.

...Flickr deal turned out to be a critical one. Butterfield says he chose to sell to Yahoo! rather than Google because the former was a more disciplined company.

Perhaps Hollywood is finally catching on that many actors don't peak until their third...
...Despite the buzz generated by Senator Barack Obama entering the race, the survey found that Senator Clinton would beat him for the Democratic nomination by a margin of 40% to 21%. Senator John Edwards is a distant third with 11%. Obama clearly suffers a disadvantage in profile among likely voters, with only 51% indicating that they knew enough about him to form an opinion, compared with 94% saying the same of Hillary Clinton. In Obama's favor, however, is his far lower negative ratings. While 58% of voters familiar with Hillary Clinton have a positive view of her, 41% give...
