...board of the late Rosemarie Nitribitt, the cruising floozy of the movie Das Mädchen Rosemarie, downtown traffic is jammed every night by fleets of motorized trollops. They crawl along in their Mercedes flashing their parking lights at prospective clients-then charging them $25 for double parking. When Munich banned them from its downtown area, angry prostitutes formally accused the city council of violating federal right-to-work laws.

...scholarship to London. Two years later, he won a second scholarship, this time to Bristol College, with funds to study art in Germany. All the while he sketched feverishly, often with a pen, explaining, "That prevents me from getting sentimental in the lines."

On his way there, Chang traveled on a train that moved at a mere...
...Spain during the Civil War, Kaltenborn broadcast the first live radio coverage of combat; once, he installed himself in a haystack on the battlefield so that listeners could hear the crackle of gunfire. For 20 days during the Munich crisis in 1938, he scarcely budged from his CBS studio in New York, where he subsisted on onion soup and slept on a cot. He provided running translations of the speeches of Hitler and Mussolini as they came over short wave and analyzed them on the spot. He saw the significance of Munich and warned his audiences accordingly: "Hitler always says...
