November also marks the 50th anniversary of Let’s Go. It plans to unveil a new logo and cover design to mark the event...
...sniping between the two giants of Texas politics has already begun. Hutchison has said state government needs a long-overdue "scrubbing," while Perry has suggested her vote for the $700 billion Wall Street federal bailout reflects a "Democrat Lite" approach to economic hard times. At a press conference to unveil a pro-life auto-license plate, Perry intimated that his potential opponent has been less than 100% supportive of pro-life policies.

...worst of the worst - the movies that, however noble in intent, arrived in theaters as a waste of time and money. The awards program matches the Oscars calendar step for step.

Two years ago, at the same conference, he announced the iPhone, which has become the hottest thing in the computer world. Tens of millions of people will own one by the end of next year; before the recession hit, some analysts predicted that as many as 45 million folks would buy one. (That figure may hold as Apple moves into Wal-Mart at the end of the month.) Even at the current rate, 1 billion applications...
