...Apparently not. Dogged by a multistate task force that accuses it of bilking the elderly, American Family Publishers (partly owned by a subsidiary of Time-Warner Inc., parent company of TIME Daily) has agreed to stop telling consumers they are "winners" unless they really are -- and to make it clearer that no purchase is needed to enter the sweepstakes...
...long-term partners when she fell in love with someone else was unpleasant, to say the least: it's tacky by any standards to start dating your lover's nurse while she's laid up in the hospital. Hall was also a possessive and controlling lover, a consistently neglectful parent to Una Troubridge's young daughter Andrea, a lifelong aristocrat and elitist, and a political conservative whose early allegiances swayed toward fascism and anti-Semitism--none of them traits are precisely endearing to a modern audience...

Tara VanDerveer, coach of No. 5-ranked Stanford, says, "It's like the parent who wants something for a kid, and because the kid couldn't get it you rig it or buy it. That's the problem people are having with it." The critics harbor a more obvious sexism. Women's sports--perhaps because they're in a protected, infant stage--involve consensus...
