...might well wonder if McCain will fade in the White House--or if Obama has the seasoning for the office. So far, both candidates have kept the age issue at bay. McCain can discuss pop culture as fluidly and astutely as any politician. (He also benefits from terrific genes: note his lively 96-year-old mother Roberta.) Obama, for his part, has projected gravitas and judgment--and has rallied a flood of young voters who could offset those still wary of the new whippersnapper...

Nobody designs more magical windows, in my opinion, than New York City's Bergdorf Goodman, where creative director Linda Fargo and her team of visual experts draw on such disparate sources of inspiration as the ho-hum Post-it note and the over-the-top interiors of Tony Duquette.

In 2008, the disparity is projected to grow even larger, as average farm incomes soar to a whopping $90,000. Farmers note that prices will likely fall once again, just as the crop booms of the ’70s were followed by lean years in the early ’80s, but cyclical market fluctuations are a feature of nearly any business.
