...Steve Jobs designed the iPhone [Jan. 22]. I think he snapped his fingers and told his engineers to do it. And the iPhone sure isn't revolutionary. It is not an innovation in technology, just in packaging. How can a company make more money? Combine more things into one product and charge more. And accessorize, accessorize, accessorize. If I bought all the stuff that Apple makes for the iPod, I would be broke. I guess Jobs is a genius - a marketing genius. Jeff Simon New Haven, Connecticut...
...area, Louis XIII is still the blend of 1,200 individual eaux-de-vie. Like the medieval cathedral builders who didn't live to see the fruits of their labors, many of the master tasters who filled these first tierçons did not live to sample their final product. "It's quite moving to work on something that is part of a national patrimony," says Rémy Martin cellarmaster Vincent Géré.

Fiends! They must be smoked out. Luckily, the Boston Police Department (BPD) unclothed the cartoonish mask of these devices to reveal their true nature as a hoax of a hoax of a wide-scale deliberate terrorist...

If their customers are not willing to pay these increased prices and stop buying the products, Coca-Cola will produce less, causing its workers to lose their jobs. Thus, the boycott will have harmed the very people it aimed to help...
...where Democrats say he stumbled. I'm not sure this criticism is realistic: Crashing the chain of command is not a trait where the Army has ever scored high in its promotion boards. And Casey, an Army brat whose dad died in a chopper crash in Vietnam, is a product of the service that created him; neither of his bosses, Gen. John Abizaid or outgoing chief Gen. John Schoonmaker, were exactly big truth-tellers when it came to talking to Congress...
