But she didn’t stop at trying to sell her own milk. Instead, she began investigating the world of breast milk as a commodity, and discovered an emerging niche market with its own factions and controversies. Should women be paid for taking the trouble to pump? How much screening does milk need to be safe? It is ethical for companies to profit on a food that studies increasingly show is unique and important for babies’ development? Should insurance cover breast milk?

The piece digs into the story of University of Alabama scientist Amy Bishop, who stands accused of shooting six of her colleagues last year. The tragic event, which left three professors dead, got lots of attention in the press, but Wallace wanted to take advantage of the magazine format to go deeper, to get inside Bishop’s mind. Wallace never got to interview Bishop, but she did manage to get her hands on three unpublished novels the scientist had written — more than 900 pages in all.

On a recent visit to California, FEMA chief Craig Fugate's agenda read like an all-star roster of tech companies: Start the day at Twitter and Craigslist, drop by Wired at lunch, then on to visit Apple and Facebook. Why is this bureaucrat, head of the oft-maligned Federal Emergency Management Agency, on a tour of the techno-elite's offices? Because he's seen that when all hell breaks loose, disaster survivors turn to social networks -- both in their neighborhoods and online. Even in the rubble of Haiti's 2010 earthquake text messaging still worked. "We're there to support the survivors," Fugate says. "They shouldn't have to fit our system, we should fit how they communicate, the tools they're using." Fugate wants to harness the power of the digital world to help the U.S. government and citizens respond to disasters. He's pushing government agencies to make their websites and their data streams freely available for whatever mashups coders can cook up. And the sharing goes both ways: When a gas pipeline exploded near San Francisco last fall, Fugate watched the situation develop on Twitter. "We don't want to innovate at the speed of government, or we'll never get there," he says.During Fugate's visit, we sat him down with Storyboard podcast host Adam Rogers to discuss FEMA's social media strategy, emergency management's coolest hashtag, and why you should be prepared at home for anything from zombies to earthquakes.

Storyboard: Episode 14 - Atoms are the New Bits

In an age of open source, custom-fabricated, DIY product design all you need to conquer the world-and to profit-is a brilliant idea. In his previous best seller Chris Anderson discussed the long tail of bits, that described how open source software products that served a niche market collectively take up a larger market share than the large bestselling products. In his latest Wired story he argues that thanks to the democratization of the tools of manufacturing, we're starting to see a new movement towards the long tail of stuff.

Storyboard: Episode 13 - How Success Killed Duke Nukem

After more than 10 years of development and millions of dollars down the drain, Duke Nukem Forever will probably never see the light of day. It's the biggest video game failure ever. Released in 1996, Duke Nukem 3D changed the way the world thought about video games. So when it came time to make a sequel, the game's developer 3D realms set out to make Duke Nukem Forever surpass every other game that had ever existed. Thanks to the success of Duke Nukem 3D, the firm had unlimited time and money; a factor which granted 3D Realms chief George Broussard the luxury to feel that Duke Nukem Forever wasn't ever ready. The supposedly almost finished game is currently locked up in litigation as 3D Realms and the game's publisher Take-Two Interactive duke it out in court. This week, Senior Editors Chris Baker and Mark McClusky talk about "How Success Killed Duke Nukem" by Clive Thompson. The story is part of the January 2010 cover package about failure.

Storyboard: Episode 11 - The End of the Air War in Afghanistan

Why is it so hard to call air strikes in Afghanistan? Wired sent Noah Shachtman to Afghanistan to learn about the war in the air. Shortly after taking control of US forces in Afghanistan, General Stanley A. McChrystal put an end to the air war by making it almost impossible to call air strikes. He argues that the United States' enormous technological advantage in the air makes it easy to win battles, but harder to win the war. Every dead Afghan civilian sets the war effort back. But with enormous political pressure upon McChrystal and President Obama to accelerate the United States' exit from the region, can this new policy work? This week, Nancy Miller is joined by Senior Editor Robert Capps and Noah Schachtman to discuss "The End of the Air War" from The January issue of Wired.
