Sumner Redstone filed for divorce on Oct. 17, when his more than 16 million Viacom shares were at $18.85, down from $39.40 six months ago; his CBS shares had dropped about $288 million in value in the same period. Redstone and his wife Paula reportedly have a prenuptial agreement, so it's unlikely the market has much to do with timing, but Mrs. Redstone divorces a poorer man than she would have six weeks...
That's probably a testosterone-dependent effect. Running is all about getting your foot off the ground. You've just got 200 milliseconds or 300 milliseconds to apply the force to push you through the air, so you need an enormously strong leg. Now Paula Radcliffe, [the world-record holder in the women's marathon], is 54 kg. At her 54 kg, she just doesn't have the muscle power that the men have. I think that's the differentiating factor.

Indeed, it has subsequently come to light that a long version of the film was first sent to Buenos...
...Walk Away Plan sounded pretty good to Paula Bond. A bookkeeper at a battered Florida construction company, she first heard about the plan on TV at 3 a.m., not long after her salary was cut in February by $100 a week and she realized she couldn't keep making her mortgage payments. Selling the house was hardly an option. Properties on her block were going for $135,000; two years ago, she'd paid $188,000. She had phoned her bank and tried to renegotiate the terms of her loan. "Every time I called," she says, "they gave me another...
