It's not easy drawing the face of a serial rapist. All that stood in the way of victims' memories and the assailant's face was a blank sheet of paper. Through a victim's description and Chandler police sketch artist Pamela Armstrong, police were able to produce a likeness of the "Chandler Rapist." .
The clock people and the sun people will converge counterproductively ...
My guess is McCain. If that's right, then succeeding in Iraq, as quickly as possible, may not only be the surest route to the White House for the Democrats. It may also be the quickest. ... If there is a way to win, Democrats have at least as big a partisan incentive to find it as Republicans do. ...

My week: Justin Cartwright
To make my day complete The Song Before It Is Sung received a wonderful accolade in the Boston Globe. Whatever they may say about not reading reviews, all writers crave some affirmation that somebody, somewhere, appreciates them. The following day, I was on Radio 4's Today programme trying to explain why novelists get better with age while mathematicians are washed up at 40. I had planned some interesting observations about the nature of truth, the empirical versus the deductive et cetera, but it didn't quite come out as I had hoped. I left White City a little despondent and headed for Bar Italia for the consolations of the best coffee in Soho. My son - the dinner jacket arsonist - rang to say he had heard me and I was very good. He is a fearless critic, so I was cheered.

Idealism drives lawyer Stefani
It was the late 1980s and at first Brown, a veteran officer, was a little unsure of the assignment. Narcotics officers were a tight-knit group that relied heavily on each other during raids. "I wasn't really all that excited about an outsider coming into the group," Brown said. But Stefani, a former FBI special agent, eliminated any fears with his talent and his energy, Brown said. He brought a legal eye to the team and helped with search warrants. "He can just about outwork anybody I know," he said. After completing the ride-alongs, Stefani increased his contact with the department, getting assigned to a drug task force that kept him in contact with Brown. He worked all day at his law practice, kept an eye on the tiny Lake Angelus Police Department that he headed and did drug raids in Detroit at night.
