...machine turned out to be more feminine than I expected. It's a zippy little laptop, but the rubberized blueberry-and-white clamshell design looks like something Barbie would use. I'm still willing to consider that experiment as soon as Apple makes a wireless machine that looks good next to a pint of Guinness...
...were in the mix, providing exposure to the hottest sectors of the decade: computers, banks and drugs. And that's the big lesson.

There is some evidence that Bush support in the state is soft. Among...

Economists David Blanchflower of Dartmouth and Andrew Oswald at England's University of Warwick calculate that a lasting marriage adds happiness equivalent to an extra $100,000 a year. They also say that yes, higher income equals greater happiness; that to make up for the sadness of losing a job would require an extra $60,000 a year; and that while the gap has diminished over the years, whites are happier than blacks--about $30,000 happier...
