...Senate had managed to find somewhere to stay in session and keep working, and it would have helped if the House had done the same, instead of sending members home. In a week when events were conspiring to make people wonder what we were getting into and whether we were up to the job, the timing of the House hiatus could not have been worse. The very idea of Congress adjourning at all was breathtaking, when everything from airline security to the stimulus package to smallpox vaccine demanded immediate attention, and the new Director of Homeland Security barely...
...Congress "weapons grade" or not, easily spread or not, related to the other attacks or not? Are we ready or not? And when public officials offer answers like "I'd rather not comment about any of the specifics," as Daschle said one day last week, it can make people wonder how long our institutions and our psyches can withstand the strain...
...several ranking investigators have told TIME they do not believe Moussaoui was part of the group. Not so much as an ATM receipt connects him to the hijackers, and he was inquiring about lessons well after the others had finished theirs.

On Sept. 21, Germany issued a warrant for Binalshibh, naming him as an accomplice in the attacks. U.S. investigators believe...

An alien from distant planet K-PAX, Prot (Spacey) has arrived in Manhattan to experience Earth...or is he merely delusional...
...third-rate fluff. Scriabin’s D-sharp minor Étude (Op. 8, #12) was next (a nod to Horowitz), followed by an arrangement of waltzes from Johann Strauss’ Die Fledermaus—again, breathtakingly impressive. Still, I can’t help but wonder how much more enjoyable it would have been had Kissin challenged us a little more musically. The warhorses and bon-bon encores were nice, but when will Kissin tour with a work by a living composer or at least an overlooked deceased one? Probably never, and that shouldn?...
