...GIACOMO, 3, a gray son of Holy Bull and a 50-to-1 long shot; the 131st Kentucky Derby; in Louisville, Ky. The colt, named by its record-producer owner after Sting's 9-year-old son, had finished first in just one race before last Saturday, when he became the horse with the second worst odds ever to win the Derby, trailing only Donerail's 91-to-1 feat...
Some of the secrets of the magazine's success can be found in A Matter of Opinion (Farrar, Straus & Giroux; 458 pages), Victor Navasky's hefty memoir of a quarter-century at the Nation--first as its editor and, since 1994, its publisher and part owner. In tracing the colorful path of his career, which included founding the opinion journal the Monocle and stints as a writer and an editor at the New York Times, Navasky defends the relevance of ideological magazines across the political spectrum.

Shamrock sends women to Harvard about eight times a year to perform in dorm rooms or clubs, according to co-owner John, but the visits—though probably memorable for the student recipients—are not remarkable enough to gain much attention from Shamrock’s women. The two worlds’ collision is brief and fleeting. For the women, it’s just another stop; for the undergrads, it’s a college memorial...
...customer base for this incarnation of sex show, according to Shamrock co-owner John, is blue-collar America, “anything from someone who works for Best Buy to someone who owns a construction company.” College students, with less cash to handle the minimum fee of over $100, don’t make up that much business except during fraternity rush season. And even then, college students tip less, according to the women. That segment of business comes from campuses like MIT, Tufts, Bentley, Boston University, and even Wellesley. Providing just eight or ten jobs...
