...just such an affable preacher that Lois Smart says she met in downtown Salt Lake in November 2001. He introduced himself as Emmanuel and asked her for money. She gave him $5 and offered him a day's work repairing the roof of her house and raking leaves. This didn't seem unusual to her husband Ed, a real estate broker who often helped people with temporary work. He labored in tandem with "Emmanuel" on a roof project and described the man as genial and soft-spoken. After four hours the Smarts told "Emmanuel" he was welcome to come back...
...Diego, Mary Katherine Smart, 10, had a revelation of her own. The sole witness to her sister's kidnapping walked into her parents' bedroom and blurted out, "Dad, I think I know who it might be." The culprit? "Emmanuel," the man who had helped repair their roof. Though investigators composed three sketches based on Mary Katherine's recollections, they did not release any of the drawings. As late as Feb. 12, Mitchell was arrested by the San Diego County sheriff's office for breaking a church window but was released after his name did not pop up on any national...
...with his pocked skin and petite size, still commands awe with his stunts. On an apartment-house roof, he declines to take the elevator to the ground floor; he drops down the side of the building, one floor at a time, by grabbing onto successive balcony ledges.

Finally, Li has a face-off against another champion...
...operational leader of al-Qaeda, using his many international contacts and four languages to keep the terror network alive. He had moved to Rawalpindi from a base in Quetta that was raided by local police and FBI agents on Feb. 13. Mohammed and another man escaped by leaping from roof to roof. A third man was detained; he turned out to be Mohammed Abdel Rahman, the son of Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman, a blind Egyptian cleric currently in a U.S. federal prison for plotting to blow up New York landmarks in 1995. After the son's arrest, the two missing...
...building understands its context, standing at a height that does not overpower its historic neighbors, the Fox and the D.U. clubhouses. This height has been minimized through the employment of a state-of-the-art geothermal heating and cooling system, obviating the need to have mechanical systems on the roof. This has an added benefit of allowing extensive skylights that will provide important natural light for the top-floor rare book restoration division. The building has also been sited in such a way that a pathway will be created from Mt. Auburn St. through to Pinocchio’s Pizza...
