...richest man, with an estimated net worth of $20.1 billion. Not quite as wealthy but rather more flamboyant is Vijay Mallya, known for throwing lavish parties in his home city of Bangalore and for his co-ownership of the Force India Formula One team. The enterprise's big guns aren't fooling: "We want the IPL to be one of the icon brands in the world," says IPL chairman Lalit Modi, "and we are going to push everything that is required to achieve that...
...times, Obama showed a lawyer's flair for conceding the small points that aren't worth arguing about. This pattern was most visible in an unexpected exchange over whether Obama has sufficiently distanced himself from Louis Farrakhan's expressions of support for his candidacy. After Obama had said he has long denounced Farrakhan's anti-Semitic statements, Clinton said Obama had to do more and flat-out reject his support.

His amazing ability to inspire derives from his refreshing authenticity and his emphasis on what is common to us rather than...
Which Democrat's platform most resembles your own? They're very similar on the major issues... In a strange way McCain is actually tougher on military contracting fraud. Do you remember how he almost singlehandedly took on that Boeing $19 billion tanker contract boondoggle? The Democrat candidates aren't talking about military contractor fraud and their records are ones of looking the other way in the Senate. But Obama and Clinton, the reason why they're scrapping on personality issues, 'You used this word, you used that word,' is because they're so similar...
