Limited release, U.K. only, 2,000 copies pressed, withdrawn almost immediately after circulation. And I held it in my hands once at the HMV on 86th St. and Lexington...
Then there are the tax benefits. Taxes on the earnings in 529 accounts are deferred until the money is withdrawn.

...legal basis for the sanctions - which Washington can keep in place via its veto power at the U.N. - is that Iraq has not been certified as compliant with its undertakings on weapons of mass destruction. Of course, there have been no U.N. inspectors in Iraq since they were withdrawn before the air strikes in late 1998. But without inspectors, Iraq's compliance can't be certified, even though former Marine captain Scott Ritter, who as a U.N. arms inspector was at the center of the 1997 showdown in Baghdad, insists that Iraq currently has no capacity to threaten anyone with...
