...introduced what it calls "magnetraction technology" - edges that are serrated like a bread knife - and has combined it with a body curved to slide over powder and crud. The result is a snowboard that grips when you need it to and otherwise slips over everything like, yes, a banana peel. A stiffened tip and tail increase stability off big landings in the terrain park, which is where the board's garish yellow color and unorthodox design will probably find its biggest fans...

Even if Democrats were able to peel off a dozen or more Republicans in the Senate and adopt a measure requiring a deployment on a specific timetable - and that's a big if - the vast majority of House Republicans are unlikely ever to break ranks and support such a plan. So Bush has little to fear from the Democrats, for all their promises to change course on the war. And there's a bonus in this for the President as well: if a close vote makes it to the floor of the Senate, Bush...
