...David Oakley making children. Torres, a 20-year-old Texan, was sentenced in 1999 for having sex with a 13-year-old girl. This year, at a parole-violation hearing, he admitted impregnating two other teens. ("I make mistakes," he said.) Wisconsinite Oakley, 34, has a 15-year rap sheet that includes theft and witness intimidation. In the meantime, he has sired nine children (one of whom he abused) by four women...

Three new power plants have added 1,400 megawatts to the grid, but conservation has added 5,570 more to the balance sheet. And nobody's starving of economic sluggishness...

I haven’t forgotten a cover sheet to a TPS report, but I have botched other relatively simple tasks. I’ve had to put up with a Milton-like character who may actually one day set the Russell Senate Office Building on fire if he doesn’t get his way. I’ve also made good friends, who, like Mike Bolton...
