...Klaw's patrons had more elaborate ideas. Irving was happy to oblige; and Bettie, happy or not, obliged too. By modern standards, the results were mild. In films with explicitly descriptive catalog titles (Hobbled in Kid Leather Harness), a woman will be tied up, or ball-gagged, or put in the trunk of a car. This time, Bettie shared the screen with another woman, usually Roz Greenwood - the star couldn't put herself in bondage. But the performers never got hurt; at times you'll catch them giggling at the indignities they were asked to portray. If there's kink...
...block party. They live there. They're hanging out. They're not going to listen to a lot of the kind of commercial hip-hop that we're talking about, where people are just rhyming about killing everybody who gets in their way and never caring about a woman - I'm not going to use bad language here; what's the point? - but you get it. There's no way that's going to be acceptable. So there's a kind of community-regulation factor in early...
...Having relocated to Southern California, living in Lawndale in a trailer owned by her neighbors Esther Trevin, 67, and Esther's 77-year-old husband, Bettie, unprovoked, attacked the woman with a knife and was subdued by Mr. Trevin, who, after warning Bettie to drop the knife, knocked her out with a crescent wrench.

Just seven months later, on her doctor's recommendation, she was released...
...even if it has to remain buried, anger is not far from the surface. A young woman standing outside the Lyudinovo emporium rocks her infant son's stroller and, looking around nervously, gives vent to her worries. She's still on maternity leave, but had hoped to return to work soon. That's now looking impossible. What's more, prices keep going up, including her rent, she complains, and she's had to pay a $200 bribe to get her son into a local nursery. "You tell that to Putin and Medvedev," she says angrily, and then worries that...
...recent Wednesday, 432 people have called in. Nadezhda Kumyiny is one of them. She's phoning from a small village in the Kursk region, southeast of Lyudinovo. She wants to borrow 30,000 rubles - just over $1,000. The woman taking her call fills in the details on a screen. Experienced call-center workers can process a request and grant pre-approval in under six minutes, but Kumyiny can't remember her zip code, which slows everything down. Watching over the process is deputy operations director Viktoriya Selezneva, who says the economic crisis has yet to arrive. "The volume...
