This week and next week, a little bit earlier than most of us wanted to think about it, the Class of 1999 was called in to pose for yearbook pictures. One could wax eloquent about how funny we all looked trying on caps and gowns, but there was something much more amusing going on at the Yearbook Office. Each student being photographed was told to check off items on a list of activities, showing those they had participated in during college and indicating any offices they might have held in those activities...
...only major appearance in his report to Congress comes when the prosecutor says she is under investigation for duplicating or otherwise tampering with the tapes, something she's testified she has not done. (If that were found to be untrue, she could face perjury charges.)

Sometimes she poses like an orthodox model--The Bathroom, 1908, where she seems transfigured by the wormy quivering of light and transparency that prevails in the room, is such an image. Sometimes Bonnard unobtrusively reuses the pose of a classical sculpture in rendering her body: the Medici Venus in Large Yellow Nude...
