Since R, and others, are big fans of the program, here's an article about America's Next Top Model (well, about

discussion. And, as long as I'm linking to Slate, here's an article about
indie bookstores and the
long tail and whatnot, and an article about
Dan 'Da Vinci Code' Brown's deposition (as you may know, he's being
sued for copyright infringement by the authors of
Holy Blood, Holy Grail, an, uh, nonfiction book that treats many of the same topics).
