...moved in 1986 to Japan, where he began his Projects for Extraterrestrials, artworks designed to be large and loud enough to communicate with outer space. Project to Extend the Great Wall of China by 10,000 Meters, for example, laid a trail of fire more than six miles beyond the wall's western terminus. Another project, Transient Rainbow, celebrated the Museum of Modern Art's temporary relocation from Manhattan to Queens with a seven-color arc of fireworks over New York City's East River...
...Bill is a distraction when Hillary shares the stage with him--and more of one when she doesn't--that leaves Hillary with another option: sending him out on the campaign trail alone. What political pros call the surrogate is the most traditional role for the spouse and often the most valuable. But when Bill is subbing for Hillary, you start wondering which one is the candidate. In late July, for instance, people paying $75 a ticket began lining up more than an hour early at Capitale in New York City, where Bill was headlining a fund raiser for Hillary...
...trail that led police to Karr began with an anonymous e-mail he sent four years ago to Michael Tracey, a journalism professor at the University of Colorado who has produced three documentaries about the case--films that had piqued Karr's interest.

He's running on a different wavelength, against the big shots in both parties. "Have you ever seen a campaign like this?" he exclaims, jogging to the next house. No and, sort of, yes. A fellow named Ned Lamont just overturned the Establishment next door, in Connecticut...
...migrant-worker magnet. That means there are fewer workers to fill the lowliest jobs, and employers must pay more to attract them. At a large job market in downtown Shenzhen, hundreds of positions are posted on bulletin boards and rows of recruiters wait to collect applications, but the trail of employment seekers is frustratingly short. At one booth, recruiter Zhong Man says entry-level salaries at her Shenzhen-based apparel company have doubled in the past two years to $250 a month, but that hasn't alleviated a chronic staff shortage. "It's a little harder to find average workers...
