...opponent. The humble star, 27, in his sixth year as a pro, smoked the single-season touchdown record, needing just 13 games (out of 16) to pass the previous mark, 28 touchdowns, set by Seattle's Shaun Alexander last year. (Tomlinson finished with 31.) He broke Paul Hornung's 46-year-old record for most points scored in a season and finished the year with 1,815 rushing yards--tops in the NFL--and 508 receiving yards. Tomlinson carried the Chargers to a franchise-best 14-2 record, and since they hold home-field advantage throughout the playoffs, which start...
...small-business owner; a friend is a lawyer; my brother is a doctor. We are not even candidates to be the Person of the Year.

Bob Michel, Al D'Amato, Paul Laxalt - the mourners, who now get together only for conventions and funerals, vividly evoked a very different time in American politics, and a very different Republican Party...
...Paul Budde, a telecommunications analyst based in Australia, says that the indirect impact on Asia's economy of a hypothetical total outage could easily reach $1 billion a day. Restoring communications links will take time, Budde says, because specialized ships will be needed to hoist damaged cables from the sea floor for repair. "There are only a handful of (the ships) around the world," he says. "It's not an easy job. This is going to take days." On Thursday afternoon, officials from the Hong Kong Office of Telecommunications Authority reported that two cable-repair ships had been dispatched from...
