American's bold proposal could bring airline deregulation to its logical--if unforeseen--conclusion. More than 50 new carriers have taken wing since deregulation's dawn in 1978, but only a few, like Midwest Express, have survived. And at least one, America West, is the subject of takeover talk. The rest have either been scrapped, like older carriers Braniff and Eastern, or swallowed...
...about to operate heavy machinery. I kinda like some of Taylor's old stuff - "Fire & Rain," etc. - but, at Rock in Rio, he seemed to be mailing his performance in. And we're not talking about by e-mail or Fed-Ex. Taylor's sleepy performance arrived by Pony Express.

...Many of Kabila's officers had begun to express frustration over the war, which began in earnest early in 1997 when Kabila turned on those who'd brought him to power.

And why not? At 59, Cheney has a life. "I have worked in some fashion my whole life," she told TIME. "It would seem as if I were turning into someone who was not me if I were to take...
...largesse of a company with issues before Congress. And Cheney will be paid by corporations that may sooner or later lobby her husband's Administration. She was wise to drop her affiliation with Lockheed Martin, a corporation with much to gain from Bush Administration decisions, but American Express has its own lobbying outfit on Capitol Hill and spends hundreds of thousands of dollars trying to persuade politicians to vote its way on tax and banking issues...
