...world much as that of the U.S. did in the late 19th century. What remains to be seen is whether the rise of China will complement the U.S. or undermine it; whether the future will bring a new, cooperative and mutually beneficial economic order rather than a predictable replay of one great power giving way to the next.

...final. Perhaps this is the reason Henry himself finally stepped up with a near mea culpa. In a statement sent to the British TV channel Sky Sports, Henry broke his silence since his postmatch admission that he had handled the ball, acknowledging that "the fairest solution would be to replay the game." He insisted that the use of his hand during the game was "an instinctive reaction" and defended his previously irreproachable reputation by saying, "I am not a cheat and never have been."

...there's a difference between a replay and a do-over, fer crissakes. The next time a figure skating judge gets caught taking a juicy bribe from the Russian mob, should the sequined ladies stick around for the let's-try-this-again Olympics? How about a World Series Game 7 on Christmas Eve, as we keep playing the botched games over and over thanks to atrocious umpiring...
