Beware: JetBlue's $599 All-You-Can-Jet Pass, which allows unlimited travel for customers between Sept. 8 and Oct. 8, is making some people act insane. Take Seth Miller, an aerophile who for some baffling reason enjoys nothing more than sitting on planes and lounging in airports. From 10 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 11, to 10 a.m. the following Monday, he will fly from New York to Ponce, Puerto Rico, back to New York to Las Vegas to Long Beach, Calif., to Portland, Ore., back to Long Beach to Chicago to New York to Aguadilla, Puerto Rico, and back...
...Caribbean, JetBlue's only other international stop is Bogotá, not exactly a tourist haven. Domestic options like Las Vegas, New Orleans and the Los Angeles area are attractive, but it's difficult to truly city-hop since JetBlue connections are a pain. Notice how often the aerophile Miller has to fly back to New York, JetBlue's home base, to get from one destination to another?

...needed one woman: a vocalist. Gene Autry recommended a singer who had worked with him, Colleen Summers. Paul and Summers were lovers from 1946, though they didn't marry until the end of 1949, back in Milwaukee. (Paul got his blood test from the father of Steve Miller, the blues-guitar man.)

Doctors suggested it be amputated, but he said no, so they took part of his leg and grafted it onto...
...fave young actor, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, seems to be wasted in a small role but isn't; he'll be more prominent in a sequel. Nichols, playing the brainiac "Scarlett" O'Hara, has an appealing manner and comely biceps, and she engages in a savory girl fight with Sienna Miller, as the mostly villainous Baroness. This PG-13 adventure boasts a lot of real and virtual shooting, but few of the major characters get killed. The only collateral damage is in the audience, where, as you sit through the movie, you can feel your IQ drop minute by minute. (Read...
...very rare when you split the chairman and CEO position for the top executive to stay in place," says Paul Miller, who follows Bank of America at FBR Capital Markets. The executive's performance during the financial crisis has come under increasing scrutiny in the past few months. At the center of the criticism, and the SEC complaint, is the way Lewis handled the Merrill Lynch acquisition. Lewis and his executives hammered out the details of the multibillion deal to buy Merrill over the course of a single weekend during the worst of the financial crisis. Quickly, it became apparent...
