 Suit (cards) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Spanish-style suits are the original suits (which is why the English term 'spade' refers not to the tool, but derived from the Spanish word for sword, which this suit represents), the suits found on the divinatory Tarot deck, and the suits found in the oldest surviving European decks.
It has frequently been observed that printing the four different suits in four different colors would be visually less confusing than the traditional system of using just two (which in any case probably arose from a printing economy no longer necessary—see Playing cards).
The Discordian deck is a parody of the Tarot deck, its five suits corresponding to the five Discordian elements.

 Law.com - Pope Wants Head-of-State Immunity From Texas Suit
But lawyers for the three plaintiffs, who allege in the civil suit they were abused by a former seminary student in Houston, vow to challenge any suggestion of immunity issued by the U.S. Department of State in response to Ratzinger's request, a challenge that could put the immunity argument to a test.
Ratzinger also says he should be dismissed from the suit on First Amendment grounds because the plaintiffs' claims would intrude on the internal working of the Roman Catholic Church and would require the court to interpret the meaning of religious documents and resolve issues of church governance.
So have the other defendants in the suit -- the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston; Joseph A. Fiorenza, the bishop in the diocese; and a priest, William Pickard, who is described in the Plaintiffs' Original Complaint as a "vocational director" for the seminarian, Juan Carlos Patino-Arango.

 Pic of the Month
The leisure suit, defined as a casual suit with a shirt-like jacket and matching pants, was developed as casual wear for men.
Soon, not only were men wearing leisure suits, but teenagers, young boys, and toddlers were being outfitted to look just like dad in leisure suits of their own.
She also noted that the suit could be worn with the jacket open or closed, and the shirt (often bright and patterned) open (perfect for peace symbols and revealing hairy chests).

The suit has splints and restrictors that limit the movement of joints such as the hand, wrists, elbows, neck, upper and lower torso, knees and ankles to simulate the loss of mobility caused by ageing and arthritis.

 AskMen.com - Armani suit
This year's suits are characterized by standard, rich colors, sharp fits, and no-nonsense styles: it's the year of the basic suit, with a twist.
Three-piece suits like the Armani one featured to the right are also showing up in fashion circles, and seem to be inspired by the classic "banker" look.
You can either go for a fl or gray pinstripe suit, like the Gianfranco Ferre one featured here, although the gray option is subtler and presents less of a contrast than its fl and white counterpart.

 The enduring mystique of the white suit. By Inigo Thomas
Like every suit, the white suit is a uniform, not of the office but of the street or the cafe.
Then there's the white suit of the Southern plantation owner (which I suspect was more myth than true), but white has always gone hand in hand symbolically with lording it, and with empire.
Among all else, a white suit is folly, though I've always preferred people who expose some of their follies to those who hide them.

 Law.com - Match.com Romance Flames Out in Suit Alleging Scam by Ex-Lover
But, the suit says, the first marriage failed because of "her first husband’s personal problems," and, "with great regret, Vicki divorced him." Still in search of "a life partner with which she could … share her life and her love," she registered with Match.com.
The suit alleges that Christopher Schlitz's requests for money intensified and that he "promised Vicki repeatedly that he would pay her back all the loans." The suit claims he did not do so.

 Zoot Suit | MetaFilter
I usually hate suits and use "suit" as a term with connotations of elitism, businessmen/executives, lack of common sense and callouses, yuppyism, and everything that is contrary to a working class and/or socialist ethic.
Yet the zoot suit was once a political/class/artistic statement against the establishment.
Back on topic, the Zoot Suit Riots and their aftermath provided a lot of the raw material for the second novel in James Ellroy's LA Quartet, The Big Nowhere.

 Nelly : Suit - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Suit, the more "uptown" companion piece to the grimier, clubbier Sweat, is by far the better of the two discs.
Not that there's anything wrong with pop, though I'm sure Nelly would protest that label, and be quick to point to such ghetto fabulous tracks as "Woodgrain and Leather Wit a Hole" as proof that, riches and fame aside, he's still the same old baller from the STL.
But even when he's breaking out the pimp juice and slinging streetwise rhymes, Nelly's best moments on Suit are all about riding an irresistible groove into a big, catchy chorus that Britney Spears would envy.

The suit, brought by a Colorado assistant store manager, charges that the retailer bypassed qualified women for promotions based on their gender.
The 4-year-old Wal-Mart suit accuses the world's largest company, based in Bentonville, Ark., of unfairly underpaying and under-promoting women.
Costco, the suit says, assured her that "she would be eligible for promotion to general manager (of a Costco store) within a year." She was 45 at the time and had been general manager of a Sam's Club store, a rival membership- warehouse retailer operated by Wal-Mart.

 InformationWeek | Antitrust Lawsuit | AMD Faces Long And Bumpy Road In Intel Antitrust Suit | June 28, 2005
In the antitrust suit filed in the U.S. District Court in Delaware Monday, AMD (Sunnyvale, Calif.) alleges that Intel (Santa Clara, Calif.) has been operating an unlawful monopoly in the x86 microprocessor market and has coerced computer makers, distributors, small system builders and retailers in their dealings with AMD.
Ross said that proving Intel's aggressive marketing practices are illegal, as stated in the antitrust suit, would be difficult.
Though AMD could face extensive court time and legal expenses in the months ahead, the company's timing of the antitrust suit is opportunistic given the company's rapid rise up the technology curve, according to Ross.
