...heard a flight attendant applauded? I did, on a JetBlue flight from Rochester, N.Y. to JFK. The cabin crew is pleasant without being too rah-rah, and efficient without being brusque. (It helps that they're not that busy, because JetBlue only serves funky snacks like blue potato chips and chocolate chip cookies, not the "real" meals that other airlines sling...
...drug figure won't be reduced much, even if, as is hoped, drug companies forfeit their patents on these medications. Though that would save precious dollars on royalties, the cost of producing the drugs will remain high. It's like Nestle giving away the recipe for Toll House chocolate-chip cookies: someone still has to pay for the ingredients...
...After President Bush's defeat in 1992, Mueller accepted a partnership in the blue-chip Boston law firm of Hale and Doar. To the surprise of his former associates, in 1995 he applied for a position in the homicide section of the U.S. Attorney's office in the District of Columbia.

It cost DC plenty to reject it, not only the kill-fee to Clowes, who said he would be "happy" to provide "inflammatory quotes," for this piece, but also the book's original designer, Chip Kidd, who quit in protest. One of America's top book designers, Kidd has said he would be "loathe" to work for DC's comics division ever again. DC remains mum on the reasons for its rejection, saying only that, "due to a difference of editorial opinion, DC Comics felt that...
