Riding across the plains in Bradley's van, I ask him if it wouldn't be more honest--less packaged--to admit that he switched positions on ethanol in order to stay alive in Iowa. He does his best to seem offended. "What am I supposed to say," he sniffs, "'All you family farms should go bankrupt?'" The van pulls into the parking lot of Bradley's motel. "My little bit o' heaven," he says, stepping out and gathering up his papers. His staff members are staying at another motel. And so, with a little wave, he escapes again into...

...ballplayer in Missouri history, he had college recruiters and newspapermen coming around all the time, but his parents weren't content to have their child be a jock.

...York's legendary Studio 54 nightclub and the man behind such chic cribs as New York City's Royalton and Los Angeles' Mondrian hotels, is looking for a broader audience--people willing to pay up to be put up in his brand of hotel hipness. Trying to stay ahead of the curve he started, Schrager is adding 10 hostelries to the five he had been running. "It's a very capital-intensive business, which doesn't encourage many new ideas," says Schrager, sitting in his new, whitewashed loft offices on Manhattan's West Side, wearing (what else?) white pants...
