...Hara Burke and William John Wills, who died of sickness and starvation in 1861 on their way back to Melbourne after crossing the continent from south to north. Geodynamics insists its prospects remain very much alive. Grove-White is so confident he's even come up with an advertising slogan for the pub: Have a cold beer from the hottest rocks. "It's got a nice ring to it," he says...
...Chicago for Democratic governors on June 20, the Obama campaign placed an official-looking seal on the candidate's lectern, clearly intended to resemble the Seal of the President of the U.S. In place of E PLURIBUS UNUM, it read VERO POSSUMUS, a rough Latin translation of Obama's slogan "Yes we can."

Broadcaster Jim McKay, who died June 7 at age 86, traveled some 4 million miles in his 37 years with ABC's Wide World of Sports, "spanning the globe," as the show's slogan put it, to bring viewers "the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat." And wherever his travels took him--from the Olympics to barrel-jumping, from horse-racing to demolition derby--he brought a reporter's eye, a poet's touch and a little boy's enthusiasm...
