Whether it is a waist-length corduroy snap-up jacket with a white faux fur-trimmed hood, or a formal mid-calf black down jacket with a real fur-trimmed hood, scarves have thus been rendered unnecessary (or supplemental.) “The fox fur on my evening coat actually serves as a perfect neck-warmer so I don’t need to wear a scarf,” says Elizabeth R.

DIED. HARRY LAMPERT, 88, original illustrator of superhero the Flash, nemesis of such bad guys as the Thinker and the Shade; in Boca Raton, Fla. Lampert and writer Gardner Fox first introduced the "fastest man alive" in 1940 as the Golden Age of comic books was just unfolding.

He has a bit of a renegade-playboy image with his tattooed forearm and his actress wife Sarah O'Hare, who is a former Revlon and Wonderbra model...
...therapy comic. Eleanor Davis' "The Bird Eater," rendered in a style reminiscent of Aesop's fable woodcuts, tells a strange parable of a monster that terrorizes a community of tree-dwelling gnomes. Non-fiction also appears in the form of Gabriella's Gamboa's curious history of the Fox sisters, a trio of phony spiritualists from the 19th century. No two contributors have the same approach. So, is the notion of a "woman's" voice apocryphal...
