...with Arianna Huffington. She'll talk to old men about their libido, beautiful women about their intelligence, the unemployed about their talent and the wealthy about their artistic depth. In her hands, a compliment is the social equivalent of a Tomahawk missile, launched in stealth at a heavily researched target and perilously difficult to defend against...
Since it will take time to get at AIG and those taxpayer dollars turned bonuses, the most immediate target of outrage (next to Liddy, who's due for a tongue-lashing in congressional testimony on Wednesday) may have to be Geithner. In his letter to Reid, Geithner said the Administration was still looking for legal ways to get the money back (as Obama has loudly demanded). He reiterated his own outrage when he confronted Liddy about the bonuses and declared that the government would force AIG to repay the Treasury from the operations of the company, in addition to deducting...
...human immune system does not mount an attack against a single target on HIV. Instead, the body deploys many dozens of antibodies - the researchers cloned 502 antibodies from the six patients - and together they attack many different virus targets. Individually, each antibody may have little effect, but as a group - or even in lab-created packages of 20 to 50 antibodies - they seem to confer some protection against disease progression. "It's the first time that anybody's really looked at what the antibody response is," says senior investigator Michel Nussenzweig, head of the Rockefeller University's Laboratory of Molecular...
...about three hours and will do better than you. In a cynical mood, eh? You might enjoy re-watching the hanging, drawing, and quartering of former Crimson President Jim Cramer '77 by John Stewart.

Yes, we still hate Bill Poole to this...
...Rivera is an easy target. The eldest son of Paquirri, a popular matador who was killed in 1984 by a foul-tempered bull named Avispado, he is the grandson of Antonio Ordóñez and the grandnephew of Luis Miguel Dominguín (the two men's rivalry was famously depicted by Ernest Hemingway in The Longest Summer). Rivera and his equally dashing brother Cayetano, also a bullfighter, have modeled for Armani, hawked high-end watches, appeared in the pages of Vogue and been featured on the American news program 60 Minutes. They have also tended toward prominent matches...
