...Republican familiar with White House plans said that, indeed, Snow and Transportation Secretary Norman Y. Mineta (yes, he's still in the Cabinet) are likely to go. Mineta, a Democratic holdover from President Bill Clinton and a charter member of Bush's Cabinet, will not be pushed out but allowed to leave, sources said. Dr. Bolten is also applying his stethoscope to the offices of Intergovernmental Affairs and Cabinet liaison...
...made use of the interactive format of the HBS case method, Williams said. “The combination of personal warmth, strong intellectual honesty, absence of self-centeredness, and the fact that he was interested in the students seemed to come through to them,” he said.

Fears for the group grew when a fourth hostage, American Tom Fox, 54, was found murdered in early March...

In a house somewhere in the city?s west, three devout aid workers from a faith-based outfit known as the Christian Peacemakers Teams - Canadians Harmeet Sooden, 32, and Jim Loney, 41, and Briton Norman Kember, 74 - were freed by British special forces and Canadian law enforcement. The raid, born of intelligence extracted from a freshly captured prisoner only three hours earlier, oddly found the kidnappers absent; alas it couldn?t save Virginian Tom Fox, 54, whose tortured body had been found on a rubbish...
