...Riley faces ousted Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore, who famously fought to keep the Ten Commandments displayed at his courthouse. Moore was once thought to pose a strong challenge, but he's proven to be a less than able campaigner. He recently drew ridicule for suggesting that mad cow disease was fake and denounced a state effort to track cattle as part of an effort to run private farms out of business. In Montana, two popular Democrats square off for the chance to take on beleaguered Sen. Conrad Burns, the Republican incumbent who has been caught...

Chances are, he’s already moved on… so should you. Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt, Molly —Dear Molly runs...
...Complete it may be, but the very name "retreat" is a misnomer. This isn't a refuge but a bracing course of exercise combined with a raw food diet, all designed by naturopath Jeans. Stern stuff, yet my fellow captives gaze cow-eyed at the honey-haired Jeans as she maps out the program for the week: yoga at 7 a.m.; a minuscule protein shake at 8:15 along with a vat of celery and cucumber juice that morphs from bland to blah with each mouthful; an 8:30 hike involving prolonged uphill slogs; at 11:15 more juice...
