...make your calls. Plug your iPod into an imbedded wire in the back of the jacket, place it in the designated pocket, and let the music begin. The keypad on the left outer cuff (lefties take note!) allows you to toggle between phone calls and music with the touch of a button. The speakers and display modules are removable and the jacket is machine washable for easy cleaning. The jackets, which range in price from $500 to $1,000, will be available at select high-end retailers in December. Of course, both companies (not to mention resort operators) expect responsible...
...Foot Locker, the 4,000-store giant. "We need to establish ourselves in the small stores where people explain the technology," says Krafsur. "That's where Nike started." The company can't compete with Nike if the USA Track & Field ban isn't lifted; many serious runners won't touch an illegal shoe. Krafsur is fighting the rule. "They're not like steroids," he says.

Hammer's sample-based U Can't Touch This and ending with Moby's sample-based Natural Blues--more or less re-create the bipolar experience of listening to commercial radio...
...meaningless without context. Sending five million military MRE meals sounded impressive until you realized there may be a million American refugees at this point. Does that mean we're only handing out five meals per person? And his interview with Diane Sawyer of ABC News seemed weirdly out of touch. His smirk came back; he stumbled into jargon like SPRo, the nickname for the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and said things that seemed patently out of touch, including the now-infamous remark that no one could have foreseen the levee breaking. His inability to see any moral distinction between those...
