...sprawled on my bed. I had no idea that that brief phone call, along with a conversation with Karl Rove the day before, would leave me embroiled in a federal investigation for more than two years and that Libby would end up facing a five-count indictment. I doubt it occurred to Libby either. That afternoon, we talked a bit on background and off the record, and he gave me an on-the-record quote distancing Cheney from Wilson's fact-finding trip to Africa for the CIA. In fact, he was so eager to distance his boss from Wilson...
...Bill James, the baseball statistician known for focusing on obscure data to evaluate talent. Both have adopted the Washington Nationals. But their deep loyalties reach beyond the Beltway--to two teams with frustrating histories. Greenspan is a New York Mets fan; Bernanke pulls for the Boston Red Sox. No doubt, more frustrations await Bernanke as he learns to mold the economy. But if he sticks to his numbers, he should do fine...
...lines. And of course, this isn’t even including some of the more esoteric VES classes, such as VES 420p: Paraphernalia Construction and VES 99s: Comping the Advocate (usually taken concurrently with VES 91c: Nose Candy).

The examples speak to the whole, however. And one area in particular in which there...
Hitchcockian: that adjective instantly conjures dark ballads sung with a puckish lilt. The darkness--the evil that befalls beautiful people--infuses the best of the 14 films in this handsome DVD set: Shadow of a Doubt, Vertigo, Psycho, The Birds. (The package also includes nifty docs on the making of the last two films.) Viewers saw the director's impish side as host of the TV series Alfred Hitchcock Presents, the first season of which is now available in a separate set. That makes for a two-box festival of Hitch--some ephemeral, most of it seminal...
...gave the green light to a number of infamous creative decisions (Jar-Jar Binks, anyone?), and on more than one occasion, critics have accused him of reducing the Star Wars mythos to a flashy, disposable commodity. All of those issues are still up for debate, and will no doubt be the subject of angry nerd-fights on Wikipedia for generations to come.But in the phone interview, held to promote the Nov. 1 DVD release of “Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith,” one thing was sure: McCallum is no Public Relations mouthpiece, smarmily...
