...contract. Teams often argue without success that this provision covers a host of sins, but Paul Weiler, a sports law professor at Harvard Law School, says behavior that prompts an indictment is probably just the type of bad citizenship contemplated in the language. Unless Bonds is convicted, though, "I doubt [the Giants] would enforce it," Weiler explains, because "Bonds is in his last year, and his income potential in terms of the fans he can draw" is of enormous benefit to the Giants. At least until he breaks the home run record, at which point it could...
Kristol is right that Hillary's position on Iraq is going to be problematic and that Al Gore would be a huge threat to win the nomination if he ran. But I doubt Gore will run. There is a candidate in the field whom Hillary--and the Republicans--should fear. Kristol and others who doubt Senator Barack Obama can continue to talk about his lack of experience, but experience alone doesn't prove anything about a candidate's ability to serve as President.

Hourly productivity among the U.K.'s financial-services workers is estimated to have climbed 3.6% per year between 1997 and 2001, according to a 2005 report, well above the 2% growth in the British economy as a whole over that period.

...council isn't buying that defense. "There is no doubt that this was an intentional airing of patently offensive language on the public airwaves," says a fuming Tim Winter, president of the council and a former executive at NBC for 15 years. Fox's broadcast crew, he added, picked the racy T-shirt "from more than 70,000 spectators in the stadium." With so many eyes fixated on what's being beamed out of the stadium - from the cameraman taking the shot to the directors and technicians in the production truck watching the monitors - "how can you possibly take this...
...Ironically, she shared her transplanted Texas status with the man she dubbed "Shrub," President George W. Bush, whose affection for his adopted state no doubt matched Molly's. The two "vaguely knew" each other during their high school years through mutual friends in Houston's tony society. "He went to prep school back East and I went to prep school in Houston," Molly recalled. Born in Monterey, Calif., in 1944, Molly had moved back to Texas with her family as the war wound down and her father's military service ended. While he worked as a corporate attorney...
