...carefully refrained from pressuring Bush for a speedy handover of authority to the Iraqis. Schröder must have realized that it was not so wise to remain inside Chirac's pocket. The months Schröder spent in there helped radicalize French policy and alienate Washington, Germany's trustiest ally for a half-century. Generally, all Europeans are resisting Schadenfreude for a simple reason: it is in nobody's interest that the U.S. should fail in Iraq. Though they are nursing hangovers on both sides of the Atlantic, the headaches are all for the good. While Schr...
...massive snowball games of war. Adams and his fellows from Boston Latin School were pitted against "the roughs and young blackguards," meaning all the nasty townies looking for social revenge. There were rocks in the snowballs, often. Adams "felt his courage much depressed by seeing one of his trustiest leaders, Henry Higginson - "Bully Hig," his school name - struck by a stone over the eye, and led off the field bleeding in a rather ghastly manner...
...knew that milk was so scandalous!

From its start in 1851, Western Union built a reputation as America's fastest and trustiest messenger. The company constructed the first transcontinental telegraph line in 1861, introduced telex messages in 1958, created Mailgram service in 1970 and began operating the first domestic satellite communications system, Westar, in 1974. But now Western Union's electronic pulse is barely perceptible. The company said last week that it lost $58.4 million in 1984 on sales of $1.1 billion. Coming on top of a $59 million deficit in 1983, the news fanned speculation that Western Union may be unable to survive. "Its future...
