...conference last year that he won't tolerate merely shifting the monopoly; he warned state-owned flag carriers that they "do not have blanket immunity from the competition rules." Rolf Georg is testing to make sure. He owns a four-person firm, based in Frankfurt, that runs an overnight sleeper service between Berlin and Malmö, Sweden. When DB charged him what he says were exorbitant prices to lease one of its engines, he took the case directly to Monti in Brussels, where it's still being examined.

...earnings of golfer Tiger Woods and Formula One racing driver Michael Schumacher--but Beckham's agency, SFX, which is owned by Clear Channel, the radio and concert giant, hasn't done badly by the boy.
