...apiece, depending on the country. Do the math. Indeed, the International Ice Hockey Federation in Zurich has already warned clubs against overspending. "Many clubs are treating this extraordinary situation as if there was no tomorrow," says spokesman Szymon Szemberg. "It's like pennies from heaven. Nobody can really blame you for stuffing your pockets, but you shouldn't adjust your lifestyle according to this." Szemberg says increased ticket sales and sponsorship are unlikely to cover the extra cost of the players. Can this reunion last past the NHL lockout?

...regional legislation" on the benefit cuts. After endorsing and promoting the new legislation last year, Putin has so far remained silent about the protests. Prime Minister Mikhail Fradkov dismissed the unrest as "arising mostly at the level of psychological perceptions and being fanned by the media." But people still blame the President.

Cary Cooper, professor of organizational psychology and health at the U.K.'s Lancaster University Management School, estimates that lost productivity from bullying costs developed economies around 1% of gross domestic product. Who's to blame? More often than not it's a stressed boss venting frustration on subordinates. Against a backdrop of slow growth or high unemployment, pressure to perform and increased competition can lead to bullying. "People are worried about their jobs and tend to be less supportive of their colleagues," says Bärbel...
...Privately, Blair's acolytes acknowledge that there's some truth to Peston's story, and blame Brown's camp for leaking it to him. There was "clearly some collusion on the book with Gordon's people," says a friend of the Prime Minister. According to Julia Langdon, a political biographer researching her own study of the Chancellor, "Even if Gordon didn't use those exact words, there will have been a showdown. Brown has completely lost patience with Blair." Blair's strategy now seems to be to use the dust-up to force...
