...anonymous 18th century artist, these scenes were the church's most glorious features, its aesthetic soul. And on the black market, they could be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. The thieves removed the framed canvases from the walls and lowered them through a window to the side street below. When they were done, they left the church through a tunnel that only a few people knew about. Once outside, they vanished, along with the paintings...
...press conference. Staring down reporters with the same intensity he lasered at Mike Piazza in 2000 (just before he beaned him), Clemens played the tape of a recent 17-min. phone call he'd had with McNamee.

...high-profile pushback? Diplomatic necessity. Bush was to embark on Jan. 8 for an eight-day Middle East trip, in part to persuade his gulf allies to unite against Iran.

But I think one of the reasons why he is appealing to them and a lot of others is because he has a certain genuine quality about...
...suspect, a turning point in Clinton's life. Back home, she had faced dangerous, vitriol-spewing crowds at the end of the health-care battle, but each time she stepped off the big plane with the grand words "United States of America" emblazoned on its side, the crowds were huge and adoring. And as she went from place to place, visiting local programs that helped women overcome the vicious prejudices visited upon them by male-dominated cultures, a metamorphosis took place: gradually, she seemed to put the health-care debacle behind her and realize there was other work...
