...college, a new wife and a stately old house on a large lot with big trees in the center of Kansas City. The home cost him about $100,000. It needed renovation, which Zachery planned to do himself, one room at a time. As home values rose, he used his equity to buy the heavy machinery required for his business. He was pursuing the ideal of the self-made entrepreneur, but his ambition left him dangerously exposed when the housing market soured, because he owed nearly twice the original purchase price...
...best albums (The Joshua Tree; Achtung Baby), the answer is both. But convergence rarely happens here. Some songs - like "Stand Up Comedy," a goofball attempt at funk - are explicitly told through Bono's rose-colored specs. ("Stand up to rock stars, Napoleon is in high heels/ Josephine, be careful of small men with big ideas.") But on the otherwise breezy power pop of "I'll Go Crazy if I Don't Go Crazy Tonight," the rock star can't resist intruding with a lyric that first appeared as a pull quote in several of his magazine profiles ("The right...

In late 2007, when the King left the hospital after a three-week stay, he was pictured wearing a carnation-pink blazer and shirt, apparently because astrologers predicted that the tint would hasten his good health.

Tribal sheiks who had once fought against U.S. forces began to work with the Marines in a tacit "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" alliance. "If the objective is zero violence in the nation of Iraq, it's impossible," Kelly said. "But if the objective...
...largest amount realized thus far was the €35,905,000 ($45,264,579) for French Impressionist Henri Matisse's painting Les coucous, tapis bleu et rose (Cuckoos on a blue and pink carpet), which went for twice Christie's estimate. Similarly, a Constantin Brancusi sculpture valued at up to €20 million ($25,877,114) sold for €29,185,000 ($36,792,835). In all, more than 700 items are up for sale at the three-day auction, which Christie's believes could bring in as much as €300 million ($384 million). (See pictures from the auction...
