...time college football teams are covered as closely as the White House by newspapers, radio, TV and all manner of websites - it would seem shocking that any coach would think he could get away with abusing a player. But coaches are more powerful than ever, with seemingly recession-proof salaries. According to a USA Today study, the average pay for major-college football coaches has risen 28% over the past two years, to $1.36 million. In 2007, 12 coaches made at least $2 million.

...Berlusconi got to do with RAI? The station is definitely not pro-Berlusconi. Berlusconi is a doer. His actions in Naples, which was cleaned up in a month; his rapid building program in Abruzzo following the earthquake; his measures that pulled Italy out of recession, all of these are proof of his ability.

Toys are a trapeze, swinging us from age to age. Those that leave nothing to the imagination never sweep us off our feet. So maybe it's good news that toys have turned out not to be recession-proof after all: analysts called last year's holiday sales the worst fourth quarter in decades - and it was the flashy, buzzy gizmos that fell fastest, while the classics held their own. Kids like the dough more than the cookies, the box just as much as what's inside. This is a rare case when the straps around your wallet serve...
