...perfect storm. All of the mainstream parties have been damaged by the expenses saga, and fringe parties could reap the benefits at the polls. But for Brown, the scandal has unleashed forces in his own party that he may not be able to subdue. After Smith's husband was found to have submitted claims for two pornographic movies, her Cabinet future looked uncertain. Blears, too, has been tarnished by allegations that she failed to pay the capital gains tax on the sale of property she had officially designated as her second home, in order to claim the MPs' second-home...
...With the stakes apparently that high, there is no guarantee that the next state supreme court ruling will end the saga.

You are feeding your kids wrong, teaching them wrong, putting them to bed wrong. Having had 14 kids, Suleman is judged fourteenfold...

But for those who've been lifelong followers of the soaring saga of No. 99 - the boy-king whose almost supernatural insight into the game and how it was played changed hockey forever and permanently ensconced the always humble pride of Brantford as the game's Luke Skywalker and Jesus Christ - this potential move would represent a welcome twist and fitting conclusion to the Gretzky narrative.
