...executive dean, he hopes that the K-School can free itself to address larger questions. "I think old-fashioned questions of political philosophy will become more wide-spread," he says. If they do, Graham Allison will be right in the thick of the debate, whether at a Trilateral Commission tryst or a Council of foreign Relations meeting. He will travel to keep in touch with what he terms the "marketplace"--he squeezes about six appointments a day into his weekly sojourns to Washington or New York--always on the ball, hustling, but never fully forgetting his role as a model...

Then her angry grandfather, the king's brother, accused her of meeting him in a sinful tryst. The maiden of 19 years was shot to death at her grandfather's orders, and the commoner she loved was decapitated in a public square...

Marmalade is said to have been invented by the royal chef as a pick-me-up when Mary came down with a fever after a cold night tryst with her lover; the orangey concoction was named Marie malade.
