...Barack Obama is now very likely to remain the Senate's only black member. Kwesi Mfume, the former head of the NAACP, lost a primary against House Democrat Ben Cardin for the Senate seat in Maryland. Cardin will now face Michael Steele, the African-American Republican who is the state's lieutenant governor. Polls showed that Steele had some chance of winning against Mfume, whose support was small outside of his base of black Democrats. But that limited base cost him against Cardin, and the veteran congressman is a heavy favorite in a Democratic state like Maryland. The other African...

Palm Springs itself, not to be left out, is planning a water-slide entertainment park and building a six-story Pierre Cardin hotel called Maxims. Next to it is a block- long string of fashion shops featuring Saks and I. Magnin. But the action now centers in what Palm Springs old-timers disparage as "down valley," where newcomers find no reason to leave their walled compounds and new shopping malls to drive into the "old town."
