...reveal what happens, except to say that by the end both stars are utterly humiliated, and that the final victim is...the viewer. I wouldn't necessarily put this film in the atrocity category of a lower-I.Q. torture exercise like Captivity. But if you consider what the exalted quartet of Branagh, Pinter, Caine and Law might have done with the project, and what they did to it, Sleuth has to be the worst prestige movie of the year...

...largest in the world, which gives it a direct link to the music fans attending its shows. Not to be outdone, Ticketmaster significantly increased its stake in Front Line Management, an agency that represents such acts as Christina Aguilera, Jimmy Buffett and Aerosmith, when rumors swirled that Live Nation wouldn't renew its contract. Warner, for its part, has been looking around for partners, potentially hooking up with none other than IAC/ InterActive Corp, Ticketmaster's parent, as a way to counter Live Nation's proposal to manage all of Madonna's concerts and album releases. And earlier this summer...

...wouldn't bundle all these rights into one cross-collateralized company," argues Randy Phillips, who manages Lionel Richie and is President and CEO of AEG Live, the second largest concert promoter after Live Nation. Phillips says Warner Music contacted him a few months ago to be a potential partner when they were worried about Madonna being stolen away, though the two didn't ultimately make a deal.

...Sarkozy has to be very careful about creating these fronts of opposition where they wouldn't have existed otherwise, because the composite effects will really undermine his authority," says Dominique Reynié, an author and professor at Paris' Foundation of Political Sciences. Reynié notes that municipal elections set for next March will serve as a barometer of voter approval with government action under Sarkozy. Sufficient dissatisfaction, he says, could provoke a tide of Socialist victories capable of reinvigorating the left as an opposition force - and create pressure exacerbating divisions within conservative ranks. "Because of that Sarkozy doesn't want...

...Wouldn't it be more effective if banked blood could simply be improved? Stamler's study suggests it can: by replacing nitric oxide in stored blood, Stamler showed that the risk of heart attack and death from transfusion dropped dramatically, at least in mice. And there's reason to believe such replenishment could work in human patients as well; already, premature babies born with lung and respiratory problems are placed in NO-rich environments to ensure that their still developing tissues get the oxygen they need to grow properly. For now, the American Red Cross, which oversees 14 million units...
