Obama wins Maine Democratic caucus
Organizers had expected heavy participation at the caucuses, but snow was falling and gusting winds hit as many of the gatherings were scheduled. The weather didn't appear to have hurt turnout. Caucuses started late in Bangor and several other locations across the state because so many people showed up that they were lined up outside the doors. In Maine's largest city, Democrats carrying “Obama" and “Hillary" signs waited to get into the citywide caucus at Portland High School in separate lines that snaked nearly three city blocks in opposite directions. Colin Johnson, an Obama supporter in Portland, said the Illinois senator is not a typical politician. “I'm convinced he's a once-in-a-generation leader," he said. “He's young and energetic and Washington and the White House could benefit from some fresh air," said Joe Lewis, another Obama supporter.

Kay Scarpetta knifed by Agent Lesbian
LIKE all the best romances, it began with a smouldering glance and "electricity in the air". It ended with a bungled kidnapping, attempted murder and salacious accounts of lesbian hanky panky. More than a decade after Patricia Cornwell, the bestselling crime novelist, was unwittingly thrust into an explosive tabloid saga involving revenge, obsession and scantily clad FBI agents, one of the leading characters has decided to tell her story. In Twisted Triangle, a book to be published in April, Cornwell’s brief lesbian dalliance with an FBI instructor named Margo Bennett is subjected to excruciating scrutiny - not to mention excruciating prose of the "As their eyes met . . ." variety. Bennett’s decision to tell her story to a professional ghost-writer has reopened a painful but mostly farcical episode of seduction, betrayal and bullet-proof vests.
