...situation, I’d presumably have nine months to learn the ins and outs of childcare, but many unplanned pregnancies—and 49 percent of pregnancies are unplanned, according to studies cited by the Centers for Disease Control—result in something more akin to a Five-Month Panic; once the child is born, there’s no time to catch up on parenting tips...
...Ford is clearly trying to pin the damage on Firestone, and vice versa. But a five-month investigation by TIME of Ford documents, which the company prepared for investigators and government lawyers, shows Ford's engineers were wrestling with the stability and handling of the Explorer even before it hit the market in 1990-as a sibling for the notorious bucking Bronco II, which cost the company approximately $2.4 billion in damage settlements. Previously undisclosed memos and e-mails show the extent to which the engineers were juggling decisions about the Explorer's suspension systems, tire pressure, weight and steering...
...Tapie Gets a Rematch Another notable comeback was staged last week in Marseilles where Bernard Tapie returned to run its doleful soccer club, Olympique Marseille. Tapie's first stint there from 1986-1994 ended in a five-month prison term on multiple corruption convictions, but not before he'd trans-formed OM into a powerhouse, winning four national titles and France's only pro European crown.

But legal authorities investigating Tapie's businesses uncovered evidence...
...Spain, Italy, France as well as the U.S., explaining casually in flamenco-flavored English that "I like to work in different languages." When traveling, she picks up her Spanish newspapers on the Web. She's highly paid but not devoted to wealth; this summer she'll begin a five-month hiatus when she'll rollerblade and study photography. In short, a typical 20-something European. Responding to questions from a Time poll measuring the mood of these peripatetic adventurers, she says globalization "gives me the opportunity to work...
...technology catches on, it could go a long way toward compensating for last week's stalled progress on the 1997 international treaty, originally negotiated in Kyoto, Japan, to cut carbon dioxide emissions. So far, Toyota has a five-month waiting list for its Prius (Latin for "to go before"), and it has logged 7,300 orders since the car's July launch. It will easily sell out this year's small production run of 12,000 cars. Sales of the Insight, introduced last December, are slower--about 3,500--partly because many dealerships can't get the cars, and partly...
