...commentator on ESPN's Sunday NFL Countdown, Limbaugh, 52, offered his analysis of the Philadelphia Eagles' Donovan McNabb, one of five active quarterbacks with both 10,000 passing yds. and 2,000 rushing yds.: "The media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well. There is a little hope invested in McNabb, and he got a lot of credit for the performance of this team that he didn't deserve. The defense carried this team." The show's other regulars, two of them black, did not challenge Limbaugh on the racist tinge of his remark. But the flap...
...glimpsed the driver, a young, clean-shaven man wearing a T shirt. Another man in the compound's parking lot says the truck veered, as if looking for the right spot to stop. Then, say both men, it slammed into a corner of the building and exploded. Some 200 yds. away, Hussain Ali, who runs a soft-drink stand, dived to the floor as pieces of concrete came flying toward him. Inside the building, Mohammed al-Hakim, a driver with the International Monetary Fund, was standing in a second-floor office. "Everything seemed to be collapsing around me," al-Hakim...
...kind of empty-calorie video flypaper at which VH1 excels. Channel-flip across it and, try as you might to resist, say goodbye to the next two hours of your life.

(Here's "actor-comedian" Mitch Silpa on Carol Burnett's Tarzan yell: "Her Tarzan yell was great.") But you could argue, say, that the mainstream success of Cheech...
...cooking oil, they came upon a hastily established American checkpoint, part of an outer security cordon thrown up during a raid on a neighbor's house. The boys were nudging their white sedan through a crowd of onlookers when suddenly, according to witnesses, soldiers in a humvee 150 yds. away opened up, firing high-velocity rounds through the windshield of the boys...
Against a player like Singh, she'll be giving up 20 to 25 yds. on each drive, leaving her with longer, more difficult second shots. On some long par fours, she'll be hitting a harder-to-control 6-iron when Singh will be hitting a wedge. On par fives, she'll be at a particular disadvantage, since the men can reach the green in two. She'll need three. Her goal is to shoot even par and to make the cut, which last year was at three over. "If I don't succeed," she says, "people will...
