...album closes out with the tracks “Cigarettes, Wedding Bands” and “Window Blues.” The former is angsty and Oasis-like, and it’s probably the album’s most redeeming track. The latter is beautiful in its own right, but in the larger context of the album, it’s just more back-porch country-blues. Still, it ends the record nicely, serving as a perfect soundtrack for the album cover: a half moon hanging over still water...
...That window is quickly closing. Since the ARJ21 project was announced, both Bombardier and Embraer have launched models that will rival it. To date, Embraer alone has already sold 127 of its 50- to 100-seat aircraft to Chinese airlines. Manufacturers in Japan and Russia also plan to field brand-new regional jets within the next three to five years. With the ARJ21's maiden flight set for next year, "China has a head start," says George Haley, head of the Center for International Industry Competitiveness at the University of New Haven in Connecticut.

It's still a work in progress and sometimes dangerously clumsy. Members of the American battalion here recently shot and killed three of the new local volunteers at a checkpoint just north of town, saying they mistook them for insurgents planting roadside bombs...
...Gourmet Shoppe doesn’t seem like a traditional hangout for home-grown Red Sox fans. For savvy local Sox fans, however, that’s exactly what it is. Twenty-odd square patrons huddled around the 42-inch flat screen in Cardullo’s front window last Tuesday for the first game of the postseason. The crowd included several “regulars”—two Cambridge policemen, an MIT English professor, the Au Bon Pain chess champ, and a smattering of residents and visitors enjoying Boston’s 4-0 win over...
