...carefully typed questions to fire at her, but a grueling train ride and a copious wait had permanently burned them in my mind, so I didn’t even take out my notebook. I began asking her about the album, about connections I thought I saw between her works, about becoming a mother, about her fans...
...Freemasons, the Elephant Man and the beginnings of media hysteria get swirled into the atmospheric mists of Whitechapel, London. The comic version may well turn out to be the writer Alan Moore's magnum opus. Meticulously researched, it took five years to complete and totals over 500 pages, including copious footnotes. Moore first gained mainstream media exposure when his "Watchmen" series, about the killings of retired superheroes, established him as a master at orchestrating long-term themes and motifs in the uniquely visual literature of comix.

The shelves can hold the reports, of which there have been depressingly many, on the nation's lack of preparedness for homeland security. (The three most recent ones total more than 500 dire pages.

The wall space is needed for Ridge's organizational chart, for he will have to coordinate the activities of more than 40 federal agencies...
...second shudder sent them to the floor. To keep her from drifting off, they conversed and prayed. She told him her name, Jennieann Maffeo, and the name and number of her boss at Paine Webber; she also told him she was asthmatic and allergic to latex. Clifford took copious notes. With the help of a Marriott employee and oxygen from the hotel's medical kit, Clifford led her to the nearest ambulance. Maffeo's charred skin still clinging to his coat, Clifford ran west and hopped on a ferry back to his home in Glen Ridge, N.J., where he hugged...
