...read a lot of this book on the subway and sometimes felt like I had to conceal the cover because I didn't want people to think I was plotting something. (Laughs.) I had the idea for a handbook of poisons in my head from the beginning. Poisoners are fascinating - they are the scariest killers because they are so cold at heart. What they do is premeditated: they plan, they plot and they wait. To me, they are the most amoral of all killers...
...scuttled health reform in the House last fall. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi wasn't able to gather sufficient votes to pass the health reform bill until after she struck a deal with pro-life Democrat Bart Stupak to allow a vote on his amendment that would prohibit plans that cover abortion in an insurance exchange from receiving federal subsidies.

The composition of each of the photographs—Horn’s head tilted to opposite sides—produces a reflective quality; one image could be flipped across the vertical axis to cover the other. This mirror-like possibility literalizes the actual mirroring of subject matter. The similarity and differences within the pair are simultaneously stressed...

On “Stranger Things,” furious strings cut in and out to build the tension, and the guitars layer...

A man on a canoe, completely covered in a white sheet, follows a golden, sunlit pathway toward a lush island. It suggests a reversion to an innocent and natural life, immediately hinting at the album’s anti-societal theme. Unfortunately, after appreciating the cover, it is probably best to leave “The Golden Archipelago” alone, as the album fails to achieve the quality of music necessary to back up such a powerful message...
