...when Fogle begins to get antsy. His shift starts at 2, and it's only a 20-minute drive, but he likes to get there early. He jams a blue baseball cap on his head, turns to Annette and says, "I'm gonna go." She replies, "O.K., let me pack you lunch." Brittany, eager to help out, slathers a little extra mayonnaise on his bologna. He grabs the sandwich and pecks his wife on the lips. She tells him she loves him--offhandedly, casually, the way such things go. And then Fogle strides out of his kitchen, through his living...
Powell rammed through the new rules--allowing a single company to own TV stations that reach up to 45% of the national market, an increase from the old 35% cap, and lifting the ban on a company's owning both a newspaper and a TV station in the same market--on a party-line vote in June.

UTStarcom, listed on NASDAQ, has a market cap of more than $3 billion and reported $330 million in revenue in the first quarter of 2003; China accounted for about 84% of that revenue. With more than 225 million users, China is the world's largest cell-phone market. Yet there are millions more who would like to use cell phones but can't afford them. "The highest-earning 20% of Chinese are going to buy mobile phones...
...which still needs lower house approval - becomes law. Berlusconi's remote control worked better than George W. Bush's last week. The Republican-led House of Representatives voted to reverse a regulatory ruling allowing TV networks to reach up to 45% of U.S. audiences. Reverting to the previous 35% cap could trigger a White House veto, and force Viacom's CBS network and News Corp's Fox to sell stations. Good news for angry media activists, but what...
