PDF General Motors on Monday filed for bankruptcy protection, even after $19.4 billion in federal bailout money. It now appears that taxpayers will end up with a 60% stake in the restructured company. Cato scholar Daniel Ikenson has long suggested bankruptcy as the best course for GM, and now worries about Ford's future: "The government has a 60 percent stake in GM. Who's going to want to own Ford stock—and therefore, will Ford be able to raise capital—when the U.S. government has an incentive to tip the balance in GM's favor wherever it can?"

I remember the day my mom told me I was old enough to wear makeup. I was so excited that I immediately went out and bought Maybelline eye shadow, lipstick and blush.
At the age of 16, I thought it was the greatest makeup ever. It was about the time I graduated college that I decided to graduate into the higher end cosmetics.
With so many great brands to choose from, my girlfriend and I decided to go to the mall and get our free make up demos. We found that Smashbox cosmetics had some fun products like the eye shadow trios and baked starburst bronzers. We also liked the shimmery lip gloss and blush that Bobbi Brown cosmetics created.
Now that I'm older, I find myself purchasing makeup based on how well it helps me conceal my age rather than how it looks. I recently started using Clarins and feel that their extra-firming foundation works really well.

Democrats Wanted Clinton Out of Senate
PrintEmailPDF 
A very interesting excerpt from Renegade by Richard Wolffe, which will be available tomorrow:
"His decision to offer her the job of secretary of state came surprisingly early. Well before the end of the primaries, when his staff and friends still felt hostile to her, Obama decided that Clinton possessed the qualities to carry his diplomacy to the rest of the world. 'We actually thought during the primary, when we were pretty sure we were going to win, that she could end up being a very effective secretary of state,' he told me later. 'I felt that she was disciplined, that she was precise, that she was smart as a whip, and that she would present a really strong image to the world... I had that mapped out.'

Hundreds feared kidnapped by Taliban
PrintEmailPDF Dozens of students were feared missing in Pakistan's tribal belt last night after heavily armed gunmen hijacked a ?convoy bringing the teenagers home for their summer holidays.
Local police said they had begun ?negotiations for the release of the ?students, whose convoy was hijacked after they left a military-run school in North Waziristan. Although early reports indicated that up to 500 students were involved, Rehman Malik, Pakistan's interior minister, said the highest estimate he had received involved 45 abductees.
An inquiry to ascertain the exact number of hostages, thought to include teachers and parents, was under way late last night. The kidnapping could give the Taliban valuable leverage as the army prepares to assault Taliban strongholds in North and South Waziristan later this summer.
"The Taliban will demand the release of their friends who are in prison, and perhaps some money," said Sailab Mehsud, a veteran tribal journalist.
The students left Razmak cadet ?college, an elite school in North Waziristan, in about 30 vehicles ?yesterday morning, a day after finishing their exams, and were forced off the road by militants wielding assault rifles and rocket launchers.
Television stations said the abduction occurred in Bakka Khel, a village on the edge of the tribal belt under the influence of Qari Gul Bahadur, a Taliban commander whose supporters have been repeated ?targeted by US drones.
Several of the vehicles made it to Bannu, a few miles away, in North- West Frontier province. Last night elders from Bannu formed a jirga, or tribal council, to bring help with negotiations.
The army, flushed with its successful anti-Taliban drive in Swat , is preparing for a major offensive against extremists in Waziristan. But the coming battle is likely to be tougher and longer.
The Mehsud and Wazir militants who make up the Taliban in that region are backed by powerful al-Qaida sponsors. They also have a strong track record in kidnapping.
In August 2007 the Taliban kidnapped at least 150 soldiers, who were swapped three months later for several senior Taliban prisoners, including the notorious commander Mullah Mansoor Dadullah.
Razmak cadet college, which is run by a retired army officer, draws most of its students from the tribal belt. Many are ?destined for careers in the army or bureaucracy. In the 1980s the principal was a retired British soldier, GD Langlands, who was kidnapped briefly by local tribesmen before being released.
