Cheney Booed
Greeted with loud boos and some cheers, Vice
President Dick Cheney threw out the ceremonial first pitch Tuesday at the

perhaps filled out by a
bulletproof vest. Security agents ringed the top edge of the outdoor
stadium

Corning Inc., one of upstate New York's largest and oldest employers, has supported Republican candidates for so long that its chairman once joked that it had not raised money for a Democrat since 1812.
