	An interview with Maria Flook (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Flook, a Roger Williams University graduate and former resident of Newport and Providence, has previously drawn on family stories in her fiction.
		One of the major plot threads of her first novel, Family Night, was a young man's search for the father he had never met, who had been a model for Arrow Collars, a direct reference to her mother's first marriage and to her stepbrother's obsession about his father.
		Flook also wanted to tackle the subject of her and her sister's parallel lives because it was a terrific story, right at her fingertips.

	The Stephen Lawrence Inquiry
		It is also of significance that when DS Flook took two days leave on 3 and 4 May, a crucial period prior to the arrests, his absence was not covered by any other officer, and the system was therefore left without anyone fulfilling the five roles.
		The result was that DS Flook was forced to withdraw a series of assertions made in his statement to Kent, which plainly had no basis in fact.
		DS Flook's attitude to Mr and Mrs Lawrence and to their solicitor, so vividly illustrated by DS Flook's critical remarks, must result in the conclusion that racist prejudice, stereotyping and insensitivity played its part in the lack of bite and energy devoted to the activities of the Incident Room.

	Digital Law Online: Flook
		Flook, {FN23: 437 U.S. held that the claim was nonstatutory.
		Because the chemical process, absent Flook’s particular alarm limits formula, was well-known, the Court ruled that the claims did not recite statutory subject matter.
		Since we have noted that Flook does not require literal preemption of a mathematical algorithm by a claim for a finding that the claim is nonstatutory, we thus deem it appropriate to restate the second step of the Freeman test in terms other than preemption.

		MARIA FLOOK'S attempt to deflect any responsibility for her role in the lengthy investigation into the death of my cousin, Christa Worthington, is transparent and typical (''Investigating an investigation," op ed, April 23).
		In doing so, Flook diverted the public's attention from Christa's achievements as a writer, and her life as a loving mother and beloved member of my family.
		The arrest of a suspect who was not involved with Christa is drawing attention to Flook's role, and she is running for cover.

	Rambles: Flook
		The prospect of seeing Anglo-Irish acoustic band Flook live at the National Centre for Early Music was enough to tempt my daughter and I out on a bitterly cold night.
		Flook have won far too many awards for their immensely exuberant, vibrant live act, and this gig, played to a sell-out audience, gave the band a great opportunity to perform some new material, together with tunes from their award-winning albums Rubai and Flatfish.
		Many of Flook's gigs are sell-outs; they've built up a loyal, lively following through their frequent touring and their great rapport with their audience.

	News: June 13, 2003 - Flook's Worthington book is murder on the D.A.- The Barnstable Patriot
		The "bad language" is less apt to provoke criticism of the DA than it raises questions about judgment, the wisdom of the county's top legal official talking, on the record, to a single journalist about matters not hitherto made public.
		There's a good deal of naivete in this situation including that of Flook who, though she is investigating a capital case, admits in the book that she didn't know what a grand jury is or does.
		We can hope that Flook will be around to write a sequel when the DA gets his good name back by sending the "perp" away.

	Broadway Books \| Invisible Eden by Maria Flook
		Invisible Eden is the deeply felt story of a career woman's attempt to start over and reinvent her life away from the fashion circles of New York and Paris only to have an out-of-wedlock child with a local fisherman, forge a life as a single mother, and meet a violent end.
		Brilliantly portraying Christa’s hunger for belonging and her struggle for survival as a first-time mother, Flook searingly evokes her search for a safe haven, her many tumultuous relationships, and the evidence linking family, strangers, lovers, suspects, and innocents to the tragedy that both shocked a seaside town on Cape Cod and horrified the nation.
		Flook intricately maps Christa's charged life before her death and follows the first year of the murder investigation with the help of the district attorney who is in an election battle even as he searches for the killer.

	Flook - Rubai
		The 2002 release by Flook surpasses the original in syle, energy and musicianship, and that is going a LONG way.
		The Flook formula is a winning one, and it has changed only slightly: take two instrumental masters of flutes, whistles, and blowey things (Sarah Allen and Brian Finnegan; the original lineup also included Michael McGoldrick), and layer them over guitar or bouzouki (Ed Boyd) and bodhran (John Joe Kelly, new for this session).
		Flook's arrangements are nothing less than first-rate and, above all, joyous.

	Flook - Flatfish/ RootsWorld Recording Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Flook's bottom line is that you've got to love the flute; and if you don't, well then, you will!
		You'd expect plenty of energy from a young band, and Flook is capable of delivering blistering performances.
		Her enviable flute and accordion work featured strongly in the bands The Barely Works and Big Jig, and the eclecticism of those earlier outfits wends its way into the Flook mystique: a waltz set on the album is graciously handled, and the closing "Flutopia" incorporates both Spanish and Macedonian influences.
