...football player Lewis Howes on how to better leverage LinkedIn. Sounds hit-or-miss but Ward got a lot out of it. He began joining LinkedIn groups, even those that weren't work-related, like one for members of his college fraternity. That landed him a note from a vice president at Cisco Systems - a man on the other side of the country who hadn't even gone to the same school as Ward was now telling him that he'd ask around to see who was hiring. Ward got a similar message from a recruiter in Texas; he didn...
...Since November's elections, Republican state legislative candidates have won 10 special elections - besting Democrats in Connecticut, Delaware, Louisiana, Maine, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Virginia, South Carolina and Texas.

...rumors of further attacks to come - including the possibility of a "dirty" nuclear bomb - the Bush Administration had no choice but to authorize the use of whatever means necessary to extract information from suspected terrorists. "We had a lot of blind spots after the attacks on our country," former Vice President Cheney explained in a May 21 speech in Washington. "We didn't know about al-Qaeda's plans, but Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and a few others did know. And with many thousands of innocent lives potentially in the balance, we didn't think it made sense...
...Pete Sessions, the chairman of the National Republican Campaign Committee (NRCC), to address the dinner. She accepted, or so Sessions thought, and a press release went out. But there was apparently a miscommunication in Palin World between Washington and Alaska advisers, because as it turned out, the 2008 vice presidential nominee had a conflict and said she might not be able to attend. In the meantime, Sessions and his Senate counterpart Senator John Cornyn cast around for another keynote speaker and decided on Newt Gingrich. The former speaker accepted, the invitations were printed, and everything looked set. (See pictures...
