...punch into 25,000 sq. ft.--including artifacts (china, Champagne bottles, the captain's bell, a twisted chandelier), replicas (staterooms, the cargo hold and the grand staircase) and even part of the hull. Letters, photographs and quotations from passengers are poignant. Most chilling: a 9-ft. by 16-ft. sheet of ice. Pressing their hands to it, visitors learn that the salt water that ill-fated night was colder still...
...time to indulge in a little self-satisfaction. Unbeknown to McCain, his supporters passed out a song sheet with words written to the tune of the Elvis hit Are You Lonesome Tonight? The lyrics were a broadside aimed at Arizona's Republican Governor Jane Hull, who had not only backed Bush but also publicly embarrassed McCain by pointing to his famous temper.

...only was I greeted with the pleasant aroma of coffee and shortbread, along with the sounds of an Italian concerto, but host for the day Frank DiMaria personally introduced himself and invited me to make myself comfortable.

This sheet, which was compiled by "Clocker Lawton," tipped three horses in each of Aqueduct's nine races that day. Lawton--the only clue to whose identity was a grainy photograph of a man in a trenchcoat and a wide-brimmed hat, a cross between Elliott Ness and John Wayne, printed...
...loathed is he that AntiOnline is an almost constant target for DOS attacks (in one of its more entertaining features, the site lets you see who's attacking it, and how, in real time). While the Feds were still holding press conferences, AntiOnline had already compiled a perp-profile sheet. The attacks, it says, were committed by a cell of three to six hackers--most likely teenagers, most likely male. "All DOS attacks have been perpetrated by more than one individual," notes Vranesevich. "They're not looking for recognition from the national public but from a small peer group...
