...consumers spending this long. Then it turned out he was just talking about homebuilding stocks like Centex shedding a few bucks "in the years ahead." Not to denigrate the value of that (probably accurate) insight to Centex investors or other housing-watchers, but we?ve got bigger, more imminent fish to fear. Also Thursday: Weekly jobless claims, and a fresh four-week rolling average that will hopefully stay below 400,000, and an economic survey from the influential Philadelphia...
...uneasy relationship with the Hudson since the 1940s, when it began dumping PCBs--a practice it continued until 1977, when the chemical was banned. Since then, the river has rebounded, with PCB levels in fish falling 90%. Still, any PCBs can be dangerous, and many people--including EPA chief and former New Jersey Governor Christine Todd Whitman and New York Governor George Pataki--have argued for dredging a 40-mile stretch of the river north of Albany and sending GE the bill...
Overfishing has depleted stocks of sturgeon in the northern Caspian Sea, and in response, Russia and several of its neighbors recently restricted their harvests of the caviar-bearing fish. That could offer an opportunity for U.S. producers of caviar from pen-raised sturgeon, led by the pioneering Stolt Sea Farm of Elverta, Calif. But do the texture and taste measure up?

A famous oenophile, he sips an expensive Bordeaux, brought to Chiang Mai from his own cellars. His entourage, a collection of cronies and political allies for whom Thaksin has been criticized, is gathered around him at other low tables. For a putative reformist, he has surrounded himself with numerous politicians associated with corruption...
...great one. Of the two bustling open-air nighttime eateries on either corner of Soi Phadungdao (a.k.a. Soi Texas) at Yaowaraj in Chinatown, he recommends Rut & Luk on the northwest corner for its "aggressively seasoned" sauce. The restaurant's specialties include tiny mollusks grilled in their shells and whole fish baked in foil with black pepper and garlic. Those looking for something similarly substantial during the day should follow the lunchtime crowds to the nondescript Som Tam Polo restaurant, on the left side of Soi Polo en route to the Royal Bangkok Polo Club. Aficionados come for the fried chicken...
