...year-old former motorcycle racer from small-town Pennsylvania has this kind of effect on people. There's something about his restless enthusiasm and unpretentious charm that makes you want to hang out with him--and buy his bikes. Just ask Harley-Davidson. The hogmaker fell under Buell's spell 15 years ago when it decided to purchase a 49% stake in the tiny company as a way to attract a younger demographic to the iconic baby-boomer brand. Harley kept increasing its stake over 10 years and finally bought it all in 2003, even though Buell accounts...

...theory, Fireproof is as alien to me as Religulous is familiar. At more than two hours, the film will make those viewers restless who aren't utterly resistant.

...crowd at Warren's Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, Calif., on Saturday night, McCain won a roar of approval when Warren asked him at what point a human being gets human rights: "At the moment of conception," McCain replied. The answer was clear, unequivocal and a great relief to restless Republicans who had endured a week of indigestion on the issue.
