...Supper Club, a labyrinth of dining rooms, ballrooms, fountains and gardens located on a bluff 5 miles (8 km) south of Cincinnati. Darla McCollister was there. She got married that evening at the gazebo in the garden and then, as her party began to move inside for dinner, a waitress informed her that there was a small fire in the building. It had begun as an electrical fire in the Zebra Room, adjacent to the bride's dressing room. Before the night was out, the flames would tear through the Beverly Hills, led by a roiling advance of smoke. There...

Kelly got noticed performing hits by Stevie Wonder and the Isley Bothers on Chicago street corners. In the early 1990s, he burst onto the national music scene as both a solo singer and the producer of hits like Michael Jackson's 1995 silky "You Are Not Alone...

...Clinton is not without her own grassroots support in South Bend. Jennifer Peck, a 30-year-old teacher turned stay-at-home mom and part-time waitress, is one such backer. One afternoon last fall, Peck sat in her living room scouring www.meetup.com for playgroups for her two young children. Instead, she signed up for a group of South Bend Clinton supporters, and by Thanksgiving was soliciting hundreds of signatures onto petitions to get Clinton on the primary ballot. Last week, she made 200 meatballs for the staffers and volunteers gathered at the local campaign office for a debate-watching...
