...Congress, backed by the White House, proposed an alternative that would raise the amount that can be inherited tax-free from $2 million to $4 million and would exempt farms altogether. That, Democratic leaders hope, would keep the debate focused on the estates of the superrich. It's classic Clinton: embrace the popular parts of the plan of your opponents, and make them defend the unpopular parts. It was rejected last week...
...Help is on the way. Food researchers at Oklahoma State University have created individually wrapped slices of peanut butter, and Smucker's new line of frozen peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwiches is already available in some cities.

And should Manny Ramirez rethink his treatment regimen? Six weeks seems an awfully long time to be out with a hamstring injury, even for a guy with hammys as big as Manny...
