...height is, of course, an attraction, but there will always be taller hotels," concedes general manager Christophe Sadones, who has a bird's-eye view of the previous record holder, the Grand Hyatt, in the upper reaches of the Jin Mao Tower, right next door. (The Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong, when it opens next year, will be the new claimant for the title.) "And at the end of the day," he says, "you have to remember that this is still a hotel, and the key to success is the same as at any hotel." That means ensuring that every item...

...vast majority of that Sugar Kush is still in our house, mostly because Cassandra found an even more effective solution to menstruation called pregnancy. But also because shopping for pot in California is more fun than using it. So when Attorney General Eric Holder declared that the Federal Government would quit busting dispensaries, removing even the hint of consequences for medical-marijuana use, my heart ached for small-time American pot dealers. They can't compete on price, selection, customer service, quality control or not-getting-arrestedness, and they have no skills that translate into another industry. They're almost...

...Bharara will not be alone on the case. Holder jointly assigned it to him and Neil McBride, the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. The Justice Department says the two men work well together, but not everyone agrees. "That's going to be ugly," says a former prosecutor who knows both men. The former prosecutor predicts that the Southern District will "run the show" because of its knowledge of the judges in New York, the proximity to the trial and the resources the office will be able to bring to bear...

Just weeks after he was sworn in as U.S. Attorney for New York's Southern District, Preet Bharara is being put to the test. U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder's announcement that self-professed Sept. 11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four alleged co-conspirators will be tried in a Manhattan federal court makes Bharara the man responsible for bringing an unabashed terrorist to justice. Bharara, who drew plaudits for his investigation into the firings of eight U.S. Attorneys under President George W.
