Stipulated
“A creditors committee in the Tribune Co. bankruptcy case has sued myriad parties involved in a 2007 leveraged buyout that it called ‘among the worst in American corporate history,’ alleging the deal pushed the company into bankruptcy less than a year later,” Crain’s reports.
“In one of two lawsuits it filed, the committee named as defendants Chairman Sam Zell, who bought Tribune in the $8.2-billion deal, and Tribune board members who negotiated with him, including Betsy Holden and William Osborn, saying the deal amounted to a fraudulent transfer of assets.”
For example, Alfonso Soriano’s contract.

Memo To Lynn Sweet
The Democrats – and Barack Obama – have only themselves to blame. Rod was their guy and even after he was arrested they didn’t have the guts to do the right thing and hold a special election.
Rod Blagojevich is a symptom, not a cause.

Sandwich Board
“Marshall Field sandwiches will be available at St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church on Friday morning, and sandwich orders may be placed by calling (641) 521-4949 any time until 5 p.m. Thursday,” reports the Newton Daily News of Jasper County, Iowa.
“A Marshall Field sandwich is patterned after the signature sandwich once served at the famed Marshall Field department store in Chicago. A hearty meal itself, it features mild rye bread, lettuce, ham, swiss cheese, chicken, bacon and boiled egg, served cold with a generous portion of homemade dressing poured over the top. Many people eat half of a sandwich for lunch, saving the other half for dinner.”
