...dragged before parliamentary committees and then took his own life. Campbell had a denial ready for the central question of whether he had influenced the words used in the British claim that Iraq could deploy weapons of mass destruction in 45 minutes: "I had no input, output, influence upon them whatsoever at any stage in the process." But the case is hardly closed. There has been plenty of testimony about meetings, some including the Prime Minister, devoted to the worried search for evidence to harden the case...
...through most of the funds made available from frozen Iraqi bank accounts in the U.S. and its own budget projections for next year are deep in the red following the failure of Iraq's oil industry to perform to expectation. Iraq is currently pumping around half of the prewar output of 3 million barrels a day, and its exports have twice been disrupted by sabotage attacks on the pipeline to Turkey. Oil exports may not be in a position to underwrite reconstruction costs for quite some time, and by some estimates rehabilitating the industry will require upward of $35 billion...
...this reputation be saved? You bet it can. That is what shows like the voluptuous Chagall retrospective at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art are for, to remind us that Chagall's best work is too powerful to be buried under the assembly-line charm of his later output. (And perhaps also to bring in the crowds.) Did he oversupply the world with purple cows? He did.

...quality violins. Apart from the initial millwork, Gliga violins are handmade with tools often fashioned by the artisans themselves for the delicate shaping and carving of the instrument. Using teams of three or four people, each specialized in one step of the process, the Gliga factory can maximize its output while maintaining high quality. That teamwork is a variation on the accepted manufacturing theme: purists argue that the finest instruments are those made entirely by one master. Gliga says several people working together actually add to a violin's character: "The workers here are like one big family, so many...
...lifelong research into line, color and form, and displays his often mystic face-off with fear, death and the unknown. Even the exhibit's 121 paintings and drawings - assembled from museums and private collections in Europe and the U.S. - represent only a minuscule portion of Klee's prodigious output in his final years. His meticulous studio register records 148 works for 1935, and only 25 for 1936, the first year of his illness; in 1937 there were 264, the next year 489, and the following year an astonishing 1,253. "I can hardly keep up with these children of mine...
