...Armstrong stadium (Pops could really swing, but he had no net game). Tennis fans, on the other hand, head for the side courts, where the world?s greatest players-OK, so maybe they?re not the top seeds-are no farther than a drop shot away. The first day session at the Open is a fantastic place to see the amazing skill you need to play at this level, to catch youngsters on the way up-say, Roger Federer in 2000-or watching some familiar names struggle with their games...
...Church in Mahtomedi, Minn., is part of a fast-growing movement that seeks to retool the 5,000-year-old practice of yoga to fit Christ's teachings. From Phoenix, Ariz., to Pittsburgh, Pa., from Grand Rapids, Mich., to New York City, hundreds of Christian yoga classes are in session. A national association of Christian yoga teachers was started in July, and a slew of books and videos are about to hit the market. But the very phrase stiffens yoga purists and some Christians--including a rather influential Catholic--who insist yoga cannot be separated from its Hindu roots...
...time to grant an honorable burial to the six-party talks was June 2004, at the end of the third round. At that session, North Korea categorically rejected the U.S.-backed objective of "complete, verifiable, and irreversible denuclearization."

...mood in the room, according to someone briefed about the session later, was one of resignation and, at least on Fu's part, some disappointment. He had pursued Unocal zealously since late last year. Just days before the meeting in Beijing, TIME has learned, his investment bankers were still pushing him to up the ante, in hope of knocking Chevron out of the game. Fu, backed by his board, demurred. The potentially historic merger?"one that everyone involved with would have told their grandkids about had it come off," says one board member?had become, as an adviser...
...ideas in science, the only explanation for the diversity of life on Earth, grounded in decades of study and objective evidence. But Dover's disclaimer on Darwin would appear to get a passing grade from the man who considers himself America's education President. In a question-and-answer session with Texas newspaper reporters at the White House last week, George W. Bush weighed in on the issue. He expressed support for the idea of combining lessons in evolution with a discussion of "intelligent design"--the proposition that some aspects of living things are best explained by an intelligent cause...
