...weeks. Level 3 has two factors that short sellers love. It has awful financial prospects and a volatile share price. At the end of the last quarter, Level 3 had $6.3 billion in debt and almost no operating income. The company is constantly trying to restructure its balance sheet, is facing a number of shareholder class action suits, and its shares swing up and down rapidly. In early January, Level 3 traded at $1.49. It dropped to $.57 in mid-March and has nearly doubled since then...
...team led by microbiologist Jill Mikucki of Dartmouth College, set out to look for any such hangers-on at a particularly unforgiving place: Blood Falls, on the East Antarctic Ice Sheet. Blood Falls got its unlovely name due to red staining that comes from a snout on the Taylor Glacier - the result of heavy deposits of iron in its water. In ages past, a fjord ran through the area and brought with it swarms of marine life, but more than 1.5 million years ago the ice began to rise, and a pool of seawater became trapped - and then capped - creating...

The court allowed the prosecution to present its opening arguments, for example, even though the newly appointed defense attorney had not yet read the 11,000-page charge sheet. (The judge acknowledged that he still hasn't finished the whole thing.) Qasab does not speak English, but there is no Urdu translator to explain the proceedings to him, and his request for an Urdu version of the charge sheet was denied. Most Indian courts leave it to the defense attorney...
...maxed out during the campaign on the amount they were legally allowed to give. Meanwhile, amid hard economic times - and absent the political intensity of a hard-fought campaign - it is more difficult to get small donors to open their checkbooks. Still, Clinton is determined to clear her balance sheet. "She feels a real moral obligation to pay off the debt," says Begala, "to pay off every last nickel to everybody." As for his own role in her latest fundraising drive, Begala says, "I'm doing this because I just want her to have a clear conscience...
