...publishing sector bringing in an additional $218 million. That will cover Terra Firma's interest bill of about $350 million. But it's not enough to keep Citigroup happy - the bank had agreed to lend the venture-capital firm $4.2 billion only if EMI could hit certain performance targets. As EMI's accounts dolefully note, there is a "significant shortfall" between the profit likely to be generated in 2010 and the target previously agreed upon...
...projectiles that could easily smash an unwary fisherman's nose. It's enough to turn a fishing trip into something worthy of the X Games, which may be fine for the extreme-angling participants of the wild Redneck Fishing Tournament in Illinois, where silver carp are the target and black eyes sustained from flying fish are a badge of honor.

Barker had already picked the target. There was a house, not far from here, that would be perfect. They had been on a patrol there just a little while ago.

In streamlining the original show's cast of malefactors, which included British and U.S. corporations and intelligence agencies, trade unions and the IRA, the movie reduces...
...important as rice is, the hottest commodity on the streets of Petion-ville is a tent. I think back to the $34.99 I paid at Target for my tent as I was preparing to make my way down to Haiti to visit my family and report on the earthquake's destruction. Now tents can sell on the street for a hundred dollars each, if you can find one. One woman says she'd been walking all day looking for one. She was dressed in a tight spandex lime green shirt, her hair neatly coiffed. She said she offered...
