      Armed with only a red plastic stapler, Ed Palino sits in his car outside a convenience store in Sarasota&#39;s Newtown district. Friday is the main distribution day for the Bradenton resident, his busiest of the week. He just needs a few more seconds before he&#39;s ready to deliver his papers. &quot;Actually, this stapling part does slow me up a lot,&quot; he says, reaching into the backseat of his white Pontiac Grand Prix. It&#39;s covered, flooded, with reams of newsprint. &quot;I

      OK, so maybe we could&#39;ve picked a tougher fight. You can&#39;t blame the networks, really, for today&#39;s prime-time lineup. The writers are picketing, after all, and the big wigs need something to put on the air after we all finish dinner. But jeez -- American Gladiators? What&#39;s next, a 61-year-old Sly Stallone remaking Rambo? (Don&#39;t answer that.) Yup, the boob tube&#39;s gotten pretty ugly. And because we at CL are gluttons for punishment, we decided to see firsthand just how

      She got me on two ringy-dingies. [image-1]When Lily Tomlin called a few weeks ago, I'd only known her from a smattering of movies: All of Me, Nashville, A Prairie Home Companion. But within five minutes, that famously nasal voice in my cell phone already felt like family. We ran the gamut, discussing everything from her legendary turns on Laugh-In, Murphy Brown and The West Wing to her sudden infamy last year on YouTube. Weighing in with the frank intelligence for

      Kristen Rhoad's blog launched in San Diego and crashed in a Sarasota County courthouse. [image-1] Or at least it was supposed to. On Sept. 7, 2006, Rhoad appeared as the defendant in a domestic violence lawsuit -- the charge was cyberstalking -- brought by her ex-husband, Phil Haberman. He wanted an end to her e-mails, her missives to his boss, her online tracking of his whereabouts. And he wanted an end to her blog, The Rhoad Warrior, which was dedicated

        Avoiding the H-bomb, one country at a time....
       
      
        By Joel Rozen
      
      
      T here are a great many things one gets to explain when traveling abroad: the expressions and idioms of your native language, the politics of your presidents, the misbehaviors of your celebrities, why this or that food group may seem so unpalatable -- the list goes on. And with my experience as a foreigner, I've had occasion to justify them all. A less obvious topic I often find myself clearing up overseas has been the nature of my strange religion,

      Some people do business over lingering martinis, in the boardroom or on the green. And then there are those like Harv Hollek, who broker deals in the presence of a huge stuffed sheep. Perched on a pedestal in Hollek's home office, the creature is just one of the many work souvenirs that clutter his Sarasota house. Living room picture windows open up to a pool and workout area, watched over by a smiling marble Buddha. Dancing figurines from Vietnam adorn
