Having seen Rowe both on the job phoning lobbyists and at home with his family and his golden retrievers Butte and Montana (named after his father's birthplace), Peterson says Rowe is a dedicated family...
Even as early as 1879, Heinz touted the benefits of its ready-made catsup with this ad: "For the blessed relief of mother and other women of the household." In 1953, a year before Ray Kroc raised McDonald's now ubiquitous Golden Arches, a Swanson food technician named Betty Cronin created the "TV dinner." Back then, when meal preparation took an average two hours, the frozen meal on a three-section aluminum tray was lauded for helping mothers "burdened with baby-boom offspring." Today the once labor-intensive process of preparing a meal has been shrink-wrapped to a tidy...
Christensen touted Dobson's endorsement in his ads, but the G.O.P. star tanked at 28% (and wept like a baby), upset by the moderate Johanns, who pointedly criticized Christensen for his homophobia.

And, perhaps, the hundreds of thousands of Cornhuskers who attend the church of their choice found Christensen's passion for the proposed "Religious Freedom Amendment" to the Constitution an exercise...
This could be the golden age of business travel, especially for those who are rolling up bonus travel miles. Airlines, hotels and credit-card companies are trying to outdo one another in their quest to grab a bigger share of the 57 million people in the U.S. who belong to bonus-reward programs. These business travelers ring up a staggering 500 billion points and miles annually--more than the airlines, rental-car companies and hotel chains can accommodate without cutting off their paying customers. Hotel rooms and airline seats are increasingly--and exasperatingly--scarce during peak travel times, which makes...
...course, there's always Harry Connick Jr., the smart-dressing, piano-playing New Orleans singer who is Sinatra's most obvious disciple. On his exhilaratingly retro 1989 sound track When Harry Met Sally, Connick displayed flashes of Sinatra's golden tones and a dash of his lush romanticism. You could almost imagine the bobby soxers. In the forthcoming movie Hope Floats, Connick even acts a bit like Sinatra, playing a regular Joe with a tough-guy exterior and a sad, needy heart...
