...contracted the services of an international advisory service, accessible to all 19,000 of the firm's employees through the Internet. Hubbard can also send out "all-hands e-mails," with alerts on everything from the threat of terrorist attacks in Saudi Arabia to the possibility of flu-tainted chicken in Hong Kong...

...first glance, the confrontation at the Doubletree Hotel in San Jose, Calif., last February seemed familiar enough. Inside, two pro-business think tanks, the Brookings Institution and the World Affairs Council of Northern California, treated the Silicon Valley elite to chicken with mango sauce and a speech by a distinguished guest. Outside, environmental activists from the Sierra Club, Rainforest Action Network and the Green Party chanted their disapproval...
