...that flank the facade of our cathedral. Pull ‘n’ Peel Twizzlers would form delicate tracery, and peppermints would substitute for portholes. Hershey’s Kisses would adorn the tops of our tallest towers. And spice drops would comprise Notre-Dame’s trademark rose windows. After centuries away, indulgence would finally return to the Church.At first, setbacks threatened to foil our quest. Indeed, the very cardboard foundation upon which we began our construction was unsteady and pushed our walls apart during construction. Our mortar was too wet and couldn’t withstand...
Good-time Charlie today? Still fast-talking, still fun-loving, still sporting his trademark suspenders. But he does have a new heart. After 40 days on a waiting list, the flamboyant 74-year-old former Democratic Congressman underwent a lifesaving transplant surgery in Houston in late September, and although he's still in quarantine, he pronounces the procedure "an enormous success. I told them to keep me alive till the movie comes out, and I feel pretty good." As a get-well present, Tom Hanks, who plays Wilson in the movie, gave him the binoculars he used in Saving Private...

This is identity theft, another example of the avarice of corporations and the people who run them. Who gives these demigods the right to tell people what's best for them? Stewart should take a page from Katonah's history and move herself...
...Jones argues that poor marketing and promotion, rather than stiffer rents, had been the industry's main problems. "Two years ago, the industry wasn't confident. Now, it is." Rowland agrees: "We let 'Savile Row Bespoke' be used right, left and center." Today, a "collective mark" trademark registration of the term requires that anyone wanting to call their wares Savile Row Bespoke must meet a long list of quality criteria, including at least 50 man-hours per suit, and be located on the street or within 100 yards of it. Though interlopers could be sued, the mark is mostly...
