MADDEN NFL 06 The 300-LB. linebacker of sports franchises, Madden shoulders its way onto the 360 in fine form. Its designers have wisely chosen not to mess with success, using the 360's extra power to add detail instead: better weather effects, realistic sweat and more trash talk. But it's not all window dressing. The play calling has been improved, and look for sweet new moves from the players, as well as some extra-crunchy tackles...
Preparing for court is an exercise in vigilance and anxiety. Meeting with clients requires navigating a complicated process of permissions, searches and U.S.-imposed time restrictions with defendants. Al-Zubaidi and a colleague of his who survived the shooting, Thamer al-Khuzaie, described in detail a Nov. 6 visit to consult with a client at U.S-administered Camp Cropper. They met Barzan Ibrahim Hasan, head of Iraqi intelligence in the 1980s, in a trailer. Inexplicably, he appeared with a scarf wrapped around his head so that they could see only his eyes.

...candidate, the network is also conducting some primitive polling to determine which candidate viewers prefer, with some internet sites even breaking the numbers down by demographics too. It’s all a bit over-the-top, and it’s unclear what purpose all this attention to detail serves, other than to confuse poor viewers like me. But I’ll tell you one thing, Santos would make a swell President, which is why I’ve decided to vote for him come Election Day. Wait, did Election Day already happen? Dammit...
