...over their glory days. Irony is no excuse.” According to Zangrilli, the mother of a customer threatened to get Mothers Against Drunk Driving involved after her son bought a shirt emblazoned with the slogan, “Hard Guy Golf: One beer a hole, loser drives home.” Ironic or no, Hard Guy Tees have been catching on. After peddling t-shirts in Hanover, N.H. last year, Zangrilli and Grey launched a website over the summer and report strong sales. Zangrilli credits the success in part to a guerilla marketing campaign that has included...
...band crossed slides, hurling more syncopated grace at the dancer. With sudden fear, his feet were not his own but those of another, less laden with curiosity and daring. A missed beat turned into a shuffle, a pause, and then a failed pitch at recovery.No one could fault the loser. A dance duel created through Architecture in Helsinki smacks of peril.

What began the night as a guitar, a bass, some drums, some voices, and a piano evolved at odd points to include a triangle...

"I think if you had asked my constituents before this week, they would say we had made a balls of it," says Brian Binley, a new M.P. from Northampton. Another new M.P. says he expects the Tories to lose the next election; one feel-good conference won't turn things around...
...legal logjams have been cleared, few in the newsgathering business are pleased by the outcome. The murky sequence of events in the case tended to obscure the principles that journalists were trying to defend. "This case was a complete loser for the press," says Jay Rosen, chairman of New York University's school of journalism. "It exposed this traffic in secrets. And whenever the press is claiming rights that are an exception from the rest of the public, then I think it works against the press." --With reporting by Mike Allen/ Washington and Nathan Thornburgh/New York
