...next month or so, financial firms will decide what they will pay their employees in year-end pay. Bonuses at Goldman Sachs, for instance, are on track to average over $650,000 per employee. Many people will get paid much more. Johnson says if Hall had stayed at Citigroup he might have been the only person at a top bank to receive a $100 million payday this year. But plenty of other folks will come close. He estimates that about 100 investment bankers and traders will receive a bonus of $10 million or more...
...That won't happen anytime soon. It would send "the wrong signal," warned Campbell. His boss agrees. "Sanctions remain important as part of our policy," said Hillary Clinton, describing them and engagement as "tools" to achieve the same goal: democracy in Burma. Considering Than Shwe's nonexistent track record on reform, U.S. officials are right to downplay the impact of engagement.

The USCCB, Rigali wrote, wanted health reform to continue the policy of preventing "direct federal funding of abortion." The language was important because it seemed to match an amendment drafted by Representative Lois Capps, a Democrat...
...response to something happening with Quinn’s baby. We think it’s a bit much given the situation. Also, Avril? Really? Luckily, while the mangled syllables are still there, the arrangement is a big improvement. Dubbing an Avril echo onto an Avril voice track doesn’t do much for us, but having the chorus of guys echo the girls wrests emotions from the song that were absent in the original. The choreography melds all the cliques well, but that last bit of hand-holding… what did that even mean...
