...Tim Cole couldn't tell his own story, so his family recounted the saga to the hard-bitten Texas legislators this past spring. The convict had insisted he was innocent up until the day he died.

...hardiest premises in television history; “The Office” has been successfully transported to France, Canada, Germany, and Chile. The largely unimpressive pilot of the American “Office” had an almost identical script to that of the British premiere. Slough became Scranton, Tim became Jim, and in one memorable punchline, “Camilla Parker Bowles” became “Hillary Clinton.” It took a uniquely American episode—the all-around-genius “Diversity Day,” written by B.J.
