...make vastly different decisions. Their book, You Are What You Choose, explores how certain attributes - such as a willingness to take risks, or worrying about what others think - affect our choices. De Marchi and Hamilton talked to TIME about their model, what it can predict and why anyone would ever want to drive a Prius. (See TIME's photo-essay "Those Things Money...
Then there is the case against Cioffi and Tannin. In April 2007, Tannin told Cioffi in an e-mail that there was "simply no way for us to make money - ever," for investors in their fund. Then several days later, Tannin told investors in a conference call that he was "comfortable" that his fund would continue to go up. The e-mail makes it look like Tannin was lying to his investors, but the e-mail that prosecutors cited was just one of many between the two managers. At other times, the managers seemed to be less sure that...
...have ever fought the battle of the bulge, then you are all too familiar with its key players: diet, exercise and your genes.

But while...
...Saad Hariri, son of the murdered former Prime Minister and leader of the ruling coalition, initially balked at Hizballah's terms, but eventually had no choice but to give in. Lebanon's longstanding deadly rivalries and the ever present threat of violence have made Lebanese politicians wary of acting unilaterally, which is why Hariri invited Hizballah and its allies into the Cabinet in the first place. And Hariri is increasingly isolated, with none of his allies being prepared to confront Hizballah head-on given the experience of the May 2008 mini-civil...
