...does Hoffa propose to go where Congress wouldn?t? Sources close to Hoffa say his first act as president-elect was to give the go-ahead for a multimillion-dollar civil-racketeering suit against, among others, the DNC. The suit would primarily target disgraced former Teamsters president Ron Carey and other Teamsters officials for allegedly embezzling nearly $1 million in cash from the union. But it would also cite top Democratic fund-raisers, including Terrence McAuliffe, who was recently appointed chief fund-raiser for Al Gore. A federal probe into Carey?s 1996 election as union president found that...

After the professor solemnly left the stage in his dark suit, the Panazz (pan and jazz squished together) Players took over the hall.

...Europe is headed for an economic slowdown this spring -- that?s why the 11 euro-joining central banks made their last act a boldly coordinated interest rate cut that brought rates across the zone to 3 percent. England needs to follow suit or risk falling behind its trading partners -- high interest rates (in relation to its neighbors) would prop up the pound and slow down England?s exports, spelling recession for sure.

...course, there was never much in it for the states anyway, other than good press; in contrast to the tobacco suit, nobody was dangling umpteen gazillion simoleons in settlement money. Still, the defection does allow Redmond a little positive spin. Naturally, it was greeted as good news on Wall Street, where MSFT jumped more than 5 points in late-day trading...
