...song on the country chart, and the rest of the nation cowers in fear at the crossover to come. Like its Achy Breaky ancestor, Redneck is such an exaggerated piece of cornpone--"I'm a redneck woman/I ain't no high class broad/I'm just a product of my raisin'/I say 'hey y'all' and 'Yee Haw'"--that it succeeds as both a genuine ode to hillbillies and a genuine joke about hillbillies. Wilson, who has obviously been studying her Shania Twain, sells the song hard, and with an endorsement from Kid Rock, who appears in the video, Redneck...

You'll fare much better if you (and the services you provide) are your own product, the research shows, whether you're a headhunter or an asset manager. The overhead is lower, and the upside greater.

Some 70 miles up the East Coast in New Haven, Conn., psychologist Kelly Brownell pulls out a full-page advertisement he has torn from the Wall Street Journal and marvels over the message.

What keeps me awake at night is that we have to find somebody who can and will pay for the wonderful things we can create...
...site of the first Portuguese cortes (parliament) to include commoners. For the last two centuries or so, Leiria (pop. 50,000) has been best known for its handicrafts, particularly the fine, handblown glassware from the factories in nearby Marinha Grande. The delicate glass, often richly colored, was a by-product of Portugal's maritime ambitions: 700 years ago, the monarchy needed ships and ordered the planting of 12,000 hectares of pine forest to provide timber and control the shifting coastal sands. Those two raw materials attracted glassmakers to the area in the 18th century; the region has been...
