  Guardian | Bad heir day
All Charles could think to do last autumn was buy himself time, by appointing his right-hand man to examine events in one of which he himself was closely involved, as the man responsible for keeping the Queen informed of developments in the Burrell investigation.
Luckily for Charles, however, he is not married to a Prime Minister some newspapers seek to hound, and is heir to an institution they wish to see preserved; so he has emerged largely unscathed from his involvement with a long parade of dubious characters.
That side of Charles, which considers it his divine right to two-time the mother of his children, and her to put up with it, is the side now coming home to roost.

Besides the Pyrenees Kingdm of Navarre, he has extensive properties in Normandy and around, as inheritance from his father Count Philip of Evreux, and as compensations agreed to his mother, queen Joan II of Navarre in exchange of her rights to the throne of France and her inherited rights to fiefs of Brie and Champagne.

 'It's Bad Luck' - 9/14/04
ALLEN PARK — The reason Charles Rogers ’ right collarbone has been broken twice in 11 months probably is nothing more complicated than being the breaks of the game.
David Collon, the Lions’ chief orthopedist, discounts theories that Rogers’ second injury somehow is related to the first, or that he might be injury-prone.
The break is not as bad as last year’s, but the time required to heal — with or without surgery — is too long for him to return this year, Collon said.

 U.S. 'Almost All Wrong' on Weapons (washingtonpost.com)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
An Oct. 7 article and the lead Page One headline incorrectly attributed a quotation to Charles A. Duelfer, the chief U.S. weapons inspector in Iraq.
The 1991 Persian Gulf War and subsequent U.N. inspections destroyed Iraq's illicit weapons capability and, for the most part, Saddam Hussein did not try to rebuild it, according to an extensive report by the chief U.S. weapons inspector in Iraq that contradicts nearly every prewar assertion made by top administration officials about Iraq.
Charles A. Duelfer, whom the Bush administration chose to complete the U.S. investigation of Iraq's weapons programs, said Hussein's ability to produce nuclear weapons had "progressively decayed" since 1991.

 Chrenkoff
Top House Democrat Charles Rangel complained on Monday that the Bush administration's decision to concoct a "fraudulent" war in Iraq was as bad as "the Holocaust."
Initially I though, this is not as bad as it seems; Rangel is not making a grossly offensive comparison of the liberation of 26 million people from tyranny with the killing of 6 million Jews.
In the Rangel moral universe, therefore, bringing freedom and democracy to millions of Iraqis is as bad as killing six million Jews - both horrible enterprises should have been stopped by the US government but weren't.

I certainly did not ascribe bad motives, and I didn't think I said anything about incompetence.
I merely quoted Bob's own statement that the money would probably be better spent on publicity, and I concluded from this that he must feel less of a pressing need for reversible brain cryopreservation; and therefore I concluded that he must feel more sanguine about the current status quo than I do.

As software becomes increasingly important, the potential impact of bad code will increase to match, in the view of Peter G. Neumann, a computer scientist at SRI International, a private RandD center in Menlo Park, CA.
In consequence, says Charles H. Connell, former principal engineer of Lotus Development (now part of IBM), they have been able to improve their products incrementally.
Software quality has been so bad for so long, some engineers argue, that the only solutions are litigation and legislation.
