...have our most important tournament of the semester this weekend. I probably should have told Noah that I wouldn't be able to stay for the whole time, but people usually come and go during the meeting," he said...
...order to come out of bankruptcy - a figure that includes $3.2 billion in damages to women who claim they were injured by the chemical giant's negligence. "This is one of the great cases of product liability in American legal history," says TIME senior writer Adam Cohen. "The whole case is very controversial; there are so many sympathetic plaintiffs saying they've suffered a variety of health problems."

As it toppled, the scores of kids who were on it scrambled. The lucky ones escaped. The rest were entombed in a mess of logs and wires. After close to 24 hours of furious searching, there were 12 dead and 28 injured, some critically, and a heartbreaking pile of questions: Did the center pole snap? Were sufficient precautions taken? Was there any adult supervision...
