Now, with the luck of the devil, he will survive in the statehouse for at least a few more days. U.S. District Judge Roger Strand added an alternate juror today, forcing the Republican Governor's trial to start all over again.

Common sense and mathematics dictate that in a universe of trillions of star systems, the conditions for life could be rare and still occur millions of times. If it could happen here...
Many downtowns are reviving; yet other retailers have swiped huge chunks of Woolworth's business. Stores like Staples knocked off stationery, while drug chains like Rite Aid made deep inroads in variety goods. Current CEO Roger Farah, tired of trying to figure out how to sell notions, will convert many sites to FootLockers. Selling $100 Nikes is a much simpler--and more profitable--proposition...
