...Dictionary. It was at law school, in her civil-procedure class in 1974, that she met John Edwards, a country boy four years her junior. He says he found her "smarter and more sophisticated than I'd ever be." On their first date, he took her to hear a band at a Holiday Inn. "It was not love at first sight," she recalls. But Edwards persisted and won her over with his sunny outlook on life. In July 1977 they married at a small Chapel Hill church with no air conditioning. Despite vastly improved finances, Elizabeth still wears...
...special train waiting to carry [Eleanor Roosevelt] north was at the little wooden station. Soldiers lifted the flag-draped casket into the last car where other soldiers, sailors and marines would stand guard over it. The band played on & on; the drums echoed hollowly in the hot valley.

Without a word of explanation, he goes into rehab for alcohol addiction and does not return for 11 months. Ulrich and Hammett watch their ex-bassist's new band, Echobrain, and wonder if Metallica is washed up. Ulrich is vilified for taking on the band's file-swapping fans. And when Hetfield finally returns, he tries his best not to scowl at the cameras. "Every day I thought about telling [the directors] to turn the cameras off," says Hetfield...
...gift to all mankind and that God obliges the U.S. (and Bush himself) to spread it to countries where it is denied. That belief has transformed our President from a foolishly sanctimonious do-gooder at home to a militarily aggressive crusader abroad. For that, he and his band of zealots should be exorcised from American political power. LEONARD SULLIVAN JR., U.S. ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF DEFENSE, 1974-76 Bethesda...
