But they cheered his come-from-behind victory in Iowa on Monday all the same for one simple reason: he dealt an early blow to their common enemy, Donald Trump. As the primary process continues to unfold over the next—gulp—five months, you can track each candidate's delegate count here. | | | | | | | | |  | One thing hasn't changed in Google's metamorphosis into Alphabet. The company's science projects tickle the imagination, but the same old Google is making all the money. In fact, Google is raking in so much profit that Alphabet just surpassed Apple as the world's most valuable company. | | | | |  | The former drug executive and current full-time internet star is under investigation for securities fraud and is the subject of a congressional inquiry, but it doesn't seem to be bothering him at all. He plans to invoke his Fifth Amendment right not to testify during his scheduled appearance on Thursday, but wishes he could speak. "I would love to talk to Congress," Shkreli said. "I would berate them. I would insult them." | | | | |  | Handing an 18-year-old a loan for tens of thousands of dollars to get a college degree comes with many risks.

As a result, you can expect the ads this Sunday to be "effectively neutered," according to one industry executive. | | | | |  | Delta dominates Atlanta, American soars above the rest at Dallas-Fort Worth, and United rules supreme at Newark but the battle for Los Angeles may never have a clear winner. Geography and an abundance of nearby airports keep a natural parity between the largest U.S. carriers. | | | | | | | | High Fantasy, High Fashion | | How Final Fantasy Characters Infiltrated Fashion | | Louis Vuitton's latest star model is Lightning. She's a 21-year-old former soldier from a place called Cocoon. Her sense of style is, well, aggressive. She wears a bit of armor for protection and carries a "gunblade," a sort of fused sword-firearm combo. Although it may seem odd to see a video game heroine anointed to represent a huge French fashion house, Lightning's new modeling gig was perhaps an inevitability. She, along with the rest of Final Fantasy's hefty cast of characters, has always strived to be chic. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
