Once in a Lifetime, A short story by Clayton Bye

We were mice, moving through a myriad of tunnels in the north field. There were five of us in there. Hadn’t heard or seen anyone in more than half an hour.

I’d come to a crossroads. I was pretty sure the tunnel on the right headed to the northeast, eventually coming up against the eastern fence. The tunnel on the left would take me to the north and another fence, or, if I stayed left all the way, it would split and end at the western opening, near the water pump which sat at the very edge of th… Continue

NPR's All Thing's Considered

Director Jason Reitman Finds His Feet 'Up In The Air'

Director Jason Reitman may be young, but he comes from Hollywood stock — his dad is Ghostbusters creator Ivan Reitman — and he has already directed two well-received feature films, Juno and Thank You For Smoking. His latest is Up in the Air, starring George Clooney. Reitman says it's his first really mature work as a moviemaker.

Tiger Woods Withdraws From Tournament

Tiger Woods withdrew Monday from his own golf tournament following injuries he sustained in a car crash near his home in Florida. Rumors have swirled about the crash and Woods' personal life since Friday's incident. In a statement, golf's No. 1 player said the crash was his fault, but did not elaborate.

Examining Obama's Afghan Speech

President Obama outlines his strategy for Afghanistan at a speech at West Point on Tuesday. Obama will likely face a skeptical audience; support for the war is in decline. Ambassador Wendy Sherman, special adviser to President Clinton, and Michael Gerson, chief speechwriter to President George W. Bush, offer their insight.

In Seattle, Search Continues For Shooting Suspect

Police are searching a Seattle neighborhood Monday for the suspect in the shooting deaths of four police officers from a Tacoma, Wash., suburb. Earlier, a SWAT team stormed a house in the area where Maurice Clemmons was thought to be hiding, but he had already escaped.

U.S. Warns Lenders On Mortgage Foreclosures

The Obama administration said Monday it is stepping up pressure on the banking industry to prevent foreclosures. The Treasury Department says it could levy fines on companies that aren't doing enough. The move is an attempt to push the banks to do a better job of implementing the administration's plan to lower payments for homeowners who are in trouble.

Listeners Recall First Time On The Internet

In the occasional series to mark the 40th anniversary of the Internet, listeners share stories about their first e-mail, Web page and instant message. One listener recalls her first foray into a chat room, another remembers her seventh grade computer class, and a third relives connecting to the Internet from Papua New Guinea.

Iran Defies West With Plans For New Nuclear Sites

Iran says its decision to build 10 more uranium-enrichment plants is a direct response to an IAEA resolution criticizing Iran for secret nuclear activities. Iran may not have the capacity to carry out the plan, but its announcement has prompted talk of new sanctions.

Investors Skittish Amid Dubai Debt Crisis

Troubles in the emirate of Dubai are making investors nervous around the world. A government-run financial conglomerate wants a time-out on debt payments, stirring fears of another bubble tied to risky bets on real estate. Dubai has invested in huge luxury projects at home and abroad.

Senate Weighs Health Care Overhaul

The Senate began debate Monday on the Democrats' plan to overhaul the nation's health care system. The measure faces an uphill battle, however, because of a dispute over abortion coverage and a government-run insurance option.

Bloomberg News Reporter Remembered

Bloomberg News reporter Mark Pittman died last week at age 52. Although he was not well-known outside Bloomberg, Pittman was a legend inside it. His reporting on credit default swaps suggested the likelihood of a market collapse. Pittman also questioned the financial viability of the pre-crash mortgage culture.
