In retrospect, this was about the only advance warning Bill Clinton gave that he was ready, finally, to grab hold of his presidency: he was loose. Even so, the first 10 minutes of his State of the Union speech was, essentially, business as usual. It wasn’t until he hit health care that the weird stuff began-“the oratorical equivalent of bungee-jumping,” an aide later said. “All of our efforts to strengthen the economy will fail,” the president read, then–suddenly–launched himself into hyperspace: “Let me say this again; I feel so strongly about this....

It’s no surprise that Bush’s trip to Mexico last week was widely characterized as “style over substance.” The eight-hour visit produced no specific accords. And, for Bush, it was the diplomatic equivalent of barely dipping one’s toe in foreign waters: the president retreated across the border to spend the night at his ranch in Crawford, Texas. But the trip, nonetheless, hinted at the kind of foreign policy the new U....

But Lavandero thinks his country got a raw deal under the trade treaty, which was recently ratified by his colleagues in the Senate, and he wants the Chilean courts to nullify the accord as unconstitutional. Among his gripes, Lavandero says that Chile will not be free to change environmental laws under the terms of the deal, or to raise royalties on foreign mining companies, without subjecting itself to challenge from U....

The administration s standard benefit package is designed to be as good as or better than what most Americans have now, though it could become less generous if Congress trims it back to save money. Still, it will be “portable”–guaranteed even if you changed jobs, lost your job or came down with a serious disease requiring costly treatment. No one may opt out to avoid paying any premiums. Clinton estimates that the average premium in 1994 will be $1,800 per individual and $4,200 per family, though exact price tags would vary by region....

Buttler (67 batting) and Stokes (42 batting) added 111 runs for the fifth wicket after England were reduced to 62 for 4 in the opening session. However India still have the upperhand as England need another 348 runs in their pursuit of 521. Post lunch, Stokes and Buttler added 89 runs in the session but more importantly mixed caution with occasional aggression. Ravichandran Ashwin (0-31) didn’t take the field immediately because of a hip niggle but came on after a brief delay....

Jenson Button topped the times for McLaren during Saturday morning’s final practice for Sunday’s European Grand Prix. The 32-year-old, 12th fastest on Friday, clocked a time of one minute 38.562 seconds towards the end of the session closely followed by Lotus duo Frenchman Romain Grosjean and Finn Kimi Raikkonen. Grosjean set the pace early on and looked likely to end the session on top before the 2009 champion, hoping to revive his world championship title bid after a string of disappointing results, shaved 0....

The show will feature homeowners coming forward and pitching why the four real estate tycoons should buy their homes.

The four-bed, four-bath house at 12227 E. Tallman Road, Chattaroy, is on the market for $600,000, and while it was built in 2002, it exudes medieval charm. The property—comprised of 40,000 bricks—features a north and south tower, a barrel shaped ceiling, as well as “battlements” and a “fortress wall.” The home also has a basement, referred to as a “fully finished daylight dungeon.” When listing the unique home, realtor Jonas Elber, of Elber and Associates, decided to embrace its quirkiness, and staged a photoshoot and house tour conducted by a knight....

Server issues, DRM and hacks aside, Blizzard’s decision to force players to be always connected to their servers means that during weekly server maintenance there is literally no possible way purchasers of Diablo 3 can play their game. This Tuesday, the game was down for a good 10 hours in order for the 1.0.3. patch to be implemented. But with it came another problem for new buyers of the digital version of the game....

Coming into this match after a huge upset against World No.2 Wang Yihan and former world No.1 Wang Shixian, Sindhu started her match against the former World No.1 a bit slowly but gathered pace in her game after 10 minutes. Sindhu never looked threatening in her match, going down without much of a fight. The Indian had beaten two Chinese players prior to this and it seemed to have taken a toll on her, with Intanon’s win a foregone conclusion by the end of the first set itself....

As far as the Indian interest is concerned, only two players have managed to qualify for the final showdown, just like the previous year. P.V. Sindhu & Sameer Verma will be in action in singles. Women’s Singles: Silver Medalist and runner-up from last year’s BWF Super Series Finals, P.V. Sindhu has qualified for the event for a third consecutive time. With the incredible Tai Tzu Ying winning nine titles this year, the top seed and World #1 is definitely the front-runner in women’s singles category....

E incluso puedes seguir usando la pantalla del portátil para obtener más espacio en el escritorio....

Forty years ago, Eisenhower won a sweeping and not terribly interesting re-election over Adlai Stevenson in a time of peace and prosperity. Ike’s domestic agenda seemed modest, and by the end of his second term, Eisenhower was unfairly viewed in many quarters as a do-nothing president. The general could afford that rap (which was later revised) because he knew that his heroic stature already ensured his place in history. Clinton cannot rest so easily....

This time, however, situations are a bit different as Borussia Dortmund are trailing them by just a point and neither of the teams has any room to lose points in the remaining matchdays. Nurnberg, on the other hand, got promoted back to the league this season but their performances have been dismal and they are languishing at 17th place in the table, fighting for survival. A loss this weekend would only push them closer to the second division as there are only 2 more matchdays left after this....

Destiny 2 creator Bungie has released a statement via its blog opposing the decision made by the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade. The Destiny 2 developer did not hold back on the matter, claiming the decision is a “blow to freedom in America” by taking away women’s rights to choose what happens with their bodies.
