Cocaine Cowboys Know Best Places To Bank

Jonathan Weil | Bloomberg | 2 August 2012

HSBC helped drug cartels and terrorists launder money through America's banking system, says Senate inquiry. Why not put it out of business? Because it's "too big too fail". We let our laws and morals fail, rather than our banks Comments

Double Jeopardy

Geoffrey Sant | Slate | 2 August 2012

In China the wealthy elite rule. So much so that when they find themselves convicted of a crime, they'll send a double to do their jail time for them. It's such a common practice they even have a phrase for it ding zui Comments

White Correspondent’s Burden

Jina Moore | Boston Review | 2 August 2012

Africa has 54 countries and a billion people, but the only stories of interest to the Western press involve famine, disease, poverty and civil war. Rape and genocide score double points. The news is broken. How to fix it? Comments

When Old Age And Addiction Collide

Jennifer Matesa | The Fix | 23 July 2012

They call it Pharmageddon: The latest health crisis to hit America. A wave of baby boomers in their fifties and sixties turning to drugs to cope with the stresses of ageing. Loneliness, depression, shame lead them to a quick fix Comments

Caught In The Middle

Samantha Shapiro | ESPN | 1 August 2012

Six years ago, Santhi Soundarajan was thrown out of the Asian Games for failing a gender test. It crushed her running career. Now she works as a brick maker in her village in India. Is there a better way of dealing with such cases? Comments

The Slave Who Circumnavigated The World

Josh Fruhlinger | Awl | 30 July 2012

Enrique of Malacca was captured in the Malay peninsula by Portuguese in 1519. Became personal slave to Ferdinand Magellan; accompanied him on voyage around the world. Promised freedom, then double-crossed. But he would take revenge Comments

Cheat Sheet - Face the Facts: Obama Will Win

The Cheat Sheet

Today: How Usain Bolt Could Break his World Record Without Running Faster in the Olympics , Battles Rage in Damascus, Aleppo , Clint Eastwood Endorses Romney
Cheat Sheet: Morning

August 04, 2012
ELECTION

Liberals don’t want to jinx it. It terrifies the right. And the press would prefer a nail-biter. But The Daily Beast’s Michael Tomasky says that finding Romney’s path to victory is getting harder every day.

NO SWEAT

Will the fastest man in the world be able to top his time-stopping performance in the 100m final tomorrow? Scientist John Barrow not only says its probable–but that the Jamaican can do it without having to even run any faster.

SYRIA

The war for Syria's future is reaching a fever pitch as Assad-loyal forces storm rebel strongholds in Damascus and Aleppo. The military has deployed jets and helicopters to fire on high-density areas of Aleppo, the nation's largest city, and new fighting has broken out in Damascus, the nation's capital. The offensive, intended to wrest power back for the ailing Assad regime, has become methodical. Government snipers moved north through Aleppo to target rebels holed up at a major TV station on Saturday. Human rights groups said 110 people– including 88 civilians–were killed on Friday.

FEELING LUCKY

The good, the bad, and the Romney? Clint Eastwood, the 82-year-old actor, director, and American icon, threw his support behind Mitt Romney on Friday at a private campaign event. "I think the country needs a boost," the Oscar-winner told the Associated Press, "Now more than ever do we need Gov. Romney. I'm going to be voting for him." Eastwood said he first heard of Romney while filming Mystic River in Massachusetts, back when the candidate was running for governor of the Bay State. "I said, God, this guy, he's too handsome to be governor, but he does look like he could be president," the actor added. "He just made my day," Romney said. "What a guy."

INSPIRING

The South African runner Oscar Pistorius, who has both legs amputated at the knee, prevailed in a preliminary heat at the Olympic stadium Saturday. With a time of 45.44, Pistorius will advance to the semifinals of the men's 400m. This achievement will likely throw new focus on the yearlong controversy that his success has sparked; some say that the athlete, who uses carbon-fiber prosthetic blades to run, has an unfair advantage. Pistorius was born without fibulas, and heads into the semifinals an underdog—but one with a large cheering section.
