...campaign will now be seen through the lens of the economy, an issue on which Obama and his party are more trusted by voters. Any hope the Republicans may have had of regaining many of the staggering 80% of voters who think the country is on the wrong track has gone right off the cliff. McCain's best hope in the economic crisis is for voters to seek his Washington experience. His gambit to become a powerful voice for a solution could pay dividends--if it works. Obama now has a permanent backdrop from which to argue for change...
Outside groups spent more than $550 million on the presidential election in 2004, a total that could be eclipsed this time around, though the money has become even harder to track. That's because many of the donors funding guerrilla campaigns absent any coordination with the candidates have opted to avoid so-called 527 groups, which require full disclosure of donors. Instead, they are using more established nonprofits, like 501(c)(4)s, to find loopholes in the law. "It brings everything off the books," explains Will Evans, who is tracking outside spending at the Center for Investigative Reporting...
...effect such thermometer swings will have on Greenland's ice. A full climatic record of the Eemian has never been constructed, but over the next several summers (scientific work is seasonal on the freezing-cold island), the NEEM researchers hope to harvest cores that will help them track the state of the ice throughout that era, when Greenland was warm enough to actually be green. Dahl-Jensen believes that with enough information, they will be able to project forward and understand just how vulnerable Greenland is to future melting. "With 10 years of intense research, I think we can reach...

He also exhibits such control over the guitar that it sounds rugged on one track (“Treason”) and Sixpence-None-the-Richer on another (“Underground”). What’s more, while pushing age 60, he still maintains a smooth voice that makes me wonder why Fleetwood Mac ever had to hire Stevie Nicks. Unfortunately, the album starts with its weakest song. “Great Day” overplays...
...Maybe his girl’s keeping his man-bits in her handbag. The production—for which Ne-Yo and Stargate are in large part responsible—could also use some cajones. Closer “Stop the World” is the only track that dares to throw unexpected chord changes in the mix; the rest mostly rely on multi-tracked harmonies and the 808/acoustic guitar schema from “Irreplaceable.” And they’re almost all somnolent, sad-sack ballads, too. Polow da Don contributes single “Single...
