...that defense simply invites the question, if it's not factual, why didn't Frey publish A Million Little Pieces as fiction? By claiming that his story was literally true, Frey endowed it with a heightened immediacy and an emotional force that it lacked as a novel-in effect, he borrowed a little extra emotional oomph from his trusting readers, who treated his narrative as 100% lived experience, real dues paid by a real person. That's not trivial. If Frey wasn't entitled to that immediacy and that force-if he stole that oomph rather than borrowed it-well...
...wonder research looking for links between lifestyle and a healthier brain has been booming in recent years. Later this month the journal Alzheimer's & Dementia will publish a long-awaited report prepared for the National Institutes of Health that summarizes what scientists know and don't know about improving cognitive and emotional health in the elderly.

The Times ran the article on Dec. 16, touching off a blogospheric scrum: conservatives accuse the Times of aiding terrorists by revealing secrets of U.S. spycraft while liberals say the paper caved to White House pressure by not dropping the bombshell sooner. At the center of the article...
...Republican J.D. Hayworth of Arizona was a sportscaster with a signature home-run call: "It's vapor!" Now the conservative Hayworth, 47, is making a similar charge about President Bush's plan to tighten the border with Mexico and establish a limited guest-worker program. He is about to publish an anti-immigration manifesto, Whatever It Takes, that should rile up right-wing radio just as the White House was hoping to gain traction for a broad immigration-reform package...
