Frist brings to his new position a dazzling array of talents. One is a calm bedside manner on TV, which is just what the White House wants to appeal to minority voters and white suburbanites scared off by Lott. A heart-and lung-transplant surgeon who made millions from his family's hospital company, Frist often flew his own plane to transport organs to patients. Educated at Princeton and Harvard Medical School, he runs marathons, sleeps little more than four hours a night, has written a best seller on bioterrorism and during congressional breaks likes to fly to places like...
...spree late last October in Brampton, a city west of Toronto. The owners of a shop that he and a friend had patronized believed they had received bogus U.S. traveler's checks and alerted the police. A raid on the homes of Hamdani and his pal turned up an array of big-screen TVs and other luxury goods, $600,000 in forged American Express and Thomas Cook checks, a state-of-the-art counterfeiting operation complete with silk-screen equipment, ink stamps like those used by consular officials, and stacks of high-grade fake passports and other identity documents.

Wander off the beaten path to find an endless array of peep shows, provided by the city's finest out-of-work Broadway dancers. Such a deal! Best of all, no standing in that bargain ticket line with the rest of the tourists...
...many Americans, 2002 will go down in history as the year corporations failed them. Story after incredible story of greed and wrongdoing has created an array of new bogeymen: Tyco's Dennis Kozlowski (31 felony counts), Enron's Andrew Fastow (indicted for wire fraud, money laundering and conspiracy), ImClone's Sam Waksal (insider trading). Politicians have huffed and chuffed about how to fix the system, but legislation proposed to date is likely to lack teeth. The Bush Administration responded late to the public's sense of outrage, then seemed to lose focus. In the end, the only man who appeared...
