...performer’s own celebrity, but it’s rare that they do so in as self-deprecating and witty way as The Streets’ “When You Wasn’t Famous.” The Streets (the nom de rap of one Mike Skinner) treat us in this video to a lighthearted romp through a high-priced rehab facility, complaining all the while about the camera phones and tabloid reporters that are always on hand to capture bad behavior. How, he asks, is he supposed to snort a line in front...

Marine Commandant General Mike Hagee steadfastly challenged plans to underfund, understaff and underequip his service as the Corps has struggled to sustain its fighting capability...
Some teens will do fine with a hazy idea of life after graduation. But others need an answer to the question Where am I going to use this? says Mike Seaton, who oversees the career-tech programs in the Glendale Unified School District. In a survey of California ninth- and 10th-graders released last week by the James Irvine Foundation, a nonprofit that awards grants to youths, 90% of students who don't like school said they would be more motivated by classes relevant to their future careers. Those students have many backers, including at least one eager salesman...
