...been cycling the same clips, remembering the same songs; some speakers had been on TV sharing the same thoughts. Yet hearing brother Jermaine deliver "Smile," Michael's favorite song, to a crowd whose hearts were breaking had an entirely different effect than Jermaine's singing it to Matt Lauer. Hearing Gordy recall Michael's childhood audition was more moving than the dozens of bio reels that had sought the same response...

...limiting their playing time or by limiting their abilities. For example, 2001 second pick Mark Prior, the previous best pitching prospect ever and benefactor of the current record contract ($10.5 million), hasn’t played in a game since 2006. And 1997’s first pick, Matt Anderson, learned the hard way that a 100-mile-per-hour fastball is suddenly below average after losing your arm strength to a single injury...

Taibbi calls the U.S. a "gangster state, running on gangster economics." He says we have an economy where "some...

...Sunnygram goes back to even more basics. "Our users are not technophiles, which is why they are interested in Sunnygram," says co-founder Matt Ahart, "so it seems inconvenient to burden them with having to set up and maintain fax equipment." Along with individualized newsletters, which are basically a compendium of all e-mails and photos sent to a person's account that week, Sunnygram subscribers get a self-addressed stamped envelope. They can hand-write replies and mail them to the company, which scans and e-mails the notes to the right people. Or they can call a toll...
