...Ambition Meets Competition Areva boosters say the cash generated by off-loading noncore assets will be used to modernize existing reactors and help build new third-generation plants. And in an industry where experience is everything, the company may even be able to spin the setback in Finland as a valuable learning experience. By focusing on its latest reprocessing technology, which produces less waste, Saulnier says Areva aims to capture one-third of the new reactor construction market by 2030.

...Spin Kevin Rudd's term of office has seen him remain popular, although he has junked many of the economic promises he made [July 13]. He has failed to deliver results to indigenous Australians and he has delivered no substantial results to reduce carbon emissions.

...Australia, our national ethos is to give everyone a fair go and by comparison with other countries we are conservative. Kevin Rudd has had his fair go and the jury is in. Unfortunately, Rudd has proven to embody the current zeitgeist in liberal democracy: that of spin and the contrived press conference over any substance or long-term vision.

Great marketing in the purest sense...

...Black, by the Philly pop-punk sextet The Wonder Years - and their own music video, which you may have seen in the past month or so: Michael Jackson's Thriller. The Walking Dead have even been invoked as emblems of our current financial malaise. Their chief apologist and spin doctor, TIME's Lev Grossman, trumpets the zombie as "the official monster of the recession...
