...fund-raising dinner Thursday night. On Friday, he faced the cameras directly. The clearest evidence that the White House was on war footing came with a statement from the First Lady, which recalled the times Barbara Bush deployed her carefully controlled patrician anger in defense of her husband. Laura Bush, traveling in Europe with presidential confidant Karen Hughes, said, "I think it is very...
...Monica Iken. What she has in mind is "a place to heal, a place of peace." Her husband Michael was a 37-year-old bond trader who died on Sept. 11, 11 months after they were married. Shortly thereafter, she founded September's Mission, a nonprofit group dedicated to creating and sustaining a memorial. Of the 2,823 Trade Center victims, the remains of only 1,058 have been identified. Iken's husband is not one of them. "It's important that we understand that's sacred space," she says.

But somehow this game, EverQuest, was different. Soon Denise was playing 18 hours a week--and, paradoxically, spending more time with her family than ever. "The longest conversation in our house at dinner," she says, "is about what...
...both ("You know what TIME magazine called Pollock?" sneers Manny. "Jack the Dripper!") - Williamson's characters are absurdly weak. Loren's comments on her sexual acquiescences are restricted to "I enjoyed it" or "That was the most humiliating thing I've ever done." Her arguments with long-suffering husband Gerry are crudely drawn, seeming artificial and superficial. Worst of all is the cliché of the Jewish businessman Manny - a grotesque caricature of a vicious money-maker with a predilection for extramarital anal sex. Political correctness speaking? Not when Manny and his wife are so obviously "played Jewish" by Michael...
