...associates were convicted for activities related to association with terrorist enterprises. There was no demonstrative proof of their service or allegiance to Bin Laden, although such links would be impossible to verify given the dispersed, cellular nature of these operations (thus organized precisely to prevent police from following a linear trail back to the top) and their vague hierarchy and direction. In other words, prosecutors may never find sufficient evidence to legally prove Bin Laden issued orders to various operatives, although it is clear their commitment to his cause functions as a kind of remote control...

...lose form." Whereas his was "to find form, and to keep it"--by means of pure outline drawing. The villains of his scheme were Titian, Rubens and Rembrandt: "a class of artists, whose whole art is fabricated for the purpose of destroying art." True art was linear, clear, like Raphael, Durer, Michelangelo and antique sculpture--and, Blake didn't hesitate to add, his own. The very thought of Sir Joshua Reynolds, president of the Royal Academy and the most esteemed and successful painter in Britain, gave Blake fits: Reynolds was a slopping, daubing Antichrist.

...warming debate. To reverse the warming trend, we don't just have to return to pre-1990 levels of greenhouse-gas emissions; we have to go back even further. The Kyoto Protocol was obsolete when it was drawn up. Without action, the rate of global warming will not be linear but exponential--the rate at which the planet is warming is increasing. We must control global population and cut back drastically on fossil-fuel use. From a global-warming perspective, the only light at the end of the tunnel is that we will eventually run out of fossil fuel. CHARLES...

Though suicide is an incredibly complex phenomenon that defies linear explanations, homosexuality almost certainly played a role in Mike’s death. Essays and writings that Mike left behind express profound turmoil about his sexual identity and personal goals. Even though we can only guess speculatively at Mike’s motives, we do know that suicide is an act of desperation.
