While the chorus of pundits and party elders calling for her to run up a white flag continues, Hillary Clinton maintains her strong bond with the clock-punching white working people who have long been central to the Democratic identity. According to a new TIME poll of likely Democratic voters in the state, Clinton leads Obama 49% to 41%. Three and a half months after Obama's breakthrough win in Iowa, Joe and Jo Lunchbucket still aren't buying the audacity of hope. Indeed, only 56% of Clinton's supporters said they were likely to vote for Obama in November...
...Warren, head of jewelry at Christie's, London, who notes that what would thrill Grima most would be "to see 28-year-olds wearing their grandmothers' pieces." In his heyday, Grima had stores in Zurich, London, New York, Tokyo and Sydney, and counted a Swinging '60s Princess Margaret and Bond girl Ursula Andress as fans. In the '70s, when his work in textured yellow gold and raw emeralds, sapphires and opals became even wilder, Jacqueline Onassis became a convert.

The process also gave her time to reflect on what it meant to be pregnant--something moms who commission pregnancy art say they treasure. "When the baby's born, everyone dotes on how cute he is," says Sandra Leong, 37, whom Loomis photographed pregnant with each of her sons, now 2 months and 3 years...
...liberalism and conservatism. In Episode 4, the two men watch a demonstration in France of a manned hot-air balloon. It's a small, perfect illustration of the ferment and unease of the Enlightenment. Jefferson is rapturous about the flight and all it symbolizes about human progress; man's bond to Earth is literally being severed for the first time. Adams is convinced the thing won't get off the ground. When the balloon takes off, Jefferson gloats, "Mankind floats upon a limitless plain of air." Adams deadpans...
