...Your wheel of blame was missing a crucial player: Ayn Rand. She was former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan's free-market guru. Like President George W. Bush, Greenspan's belief in free markets blinded him to the dangers inherent in the subprime-mortgage market. How else can one explain his failure to respond to early and repeated warnings from the late Edward Gramlich, a member of the Fed board who recognized the dangers and addressed the matter (perhaps in frustration) last year in his book Subprime Mortgages: America's Latest Boom and Bust?

...video from “Free Willy.” The allusion to MJ in WJ’s video just warms my heart. But there are plenty of scenes in which Jean apes your typical gangsta rapper, driving a bright yellow sports car from three feet behind the wheel and wearing thugged-out glasses that are more Kanye than they are Wyclef. It’s a nice change to see Wyclef trading in his dreads for a little bling, especially since this video is easier to follow than the “Sweetest Girl” clip, which...
...accelerate from zero to 160 km/h in 3.5 sec., and are so endowed with aerodynamic downforce that, in theory, you could drive one of these babies across the ceiling.

Although gripped by the battle for the Democratic nomination, public interest in the Republican's presumptive nominee seems low. That was reflected in comparatively small numbers of journalists waiting for him at Downing Street. As McCain climbed into his car after the press conference there, a well-known political correspondent dusted herself down after...
...Extremists associated with or organized by AQIM have nearly free rein in the vast territory sweeping the southern flanks of Morocco, Algeria and Libya, and over the northern sections of Mauritania, Mali and Niger. The French official says around 150 fighters traveling in four-wheel trucks move about freely in the region, running munitions and materials, training new recruits, and abducting and holding any kidnap victims. Indeed, officials are virtually certain AQIM has transported Kloiber and Ebner to northern Mali or southern Algeria, the same area where the GSPC kept 31 captured European tourists hidden in 2003 until Germany allegedly...
