...That day may be some way off. As part of the campaign to rebrand Nadal, Nike announced last summer that the player would wear a new line of attire at the U.S. Open. Nadal normally wears knee-length shorts and a sleeveless shirt - a trademark pirate costume loved by fans, which looks ridiculous on anything other than Nadal's muscled body.

...here comes poor Schiller onto the brilliant stage of San Francisco's Moscone Center. Whereas Jobs is known for his handmade St. Croix black mock turtleneck and jeans, Schiller looks defiantly nerdy, sporting the kind of engineer blue button-down shirt popularized by the dotcom crowd in 1997.

Standing next to Whitaker, Obama , with a white glove on his right hand, took three practice swings. His first shot was a ground ball straight ahead.

...more than a half-century, Studs Terkel, who died on Oct. 31 at 96, had an ongoing conversation with America. This elfin-looking man, usually dressed in a red-plaid shirt, ventured out into the unfamiliar with tape recorder in hand and spoke with people whom he liked to call the etceteras of the world. In his presence, they mattered. He knew they had something to say--about race, about class, about work, about hope, about community. About America...
