...week the Archdiocese announced a new approach in dealing with the investigations of sexual abuse by the clergy. From now on, the Church plans to remove priests almost immediately after they are accused - effectively putting them on the ecclestiastical equivalent of desk duty. The archdiocese?s current chancellor, Jimmy Lago, will oversee all probes of abuse allegations against priests across Chicago...
...Murciélago shoots from 0 to 60 in 3.8 sec. and has a top speed of 200 m.p.h. I'll take Lambo's word for it. Unless you're on a closed course or have a death wish, it's tough to push it to the max. On New York's Taconic Parkway, I never had to shift above fourth gear to feel like a human cannonball and pull all the Le Mans moves I could safely muster.

...Germans hold the purse strings fool you: the Italians are still making blissfully impractical transport. Since 1998, VW has pumped $155 million into the brand, with Lambo currently producing two models (the Gallardo is the other) for the first time in its 41-year history. One feature the Murciélago roadster borrows from VW's Audi A4 convertible is roll bars that pop up within milliseconds in a rollover. But the Murciélago, named for a legendary Spanish bull so fierce it was spared by a matador, is as outrageous as Lambo's prior exotica, cars like the Countach...
