Every good Bible story needs a heavenly visitation. Bethany (Fiorentino) gets hers from the angel Metatron (Alan Rickman), who tells her she is Jesus' distant descendant and it is her destiny to save the world. Two fallen angels, Loki (Matt Damon) and Bartleby (Affleck), have found a doctrinal loophole that will allow them to return to Heaven by walking through a parish door in New Jersey. "It will undo the world," Bethany is told--unless she can stop the renegades from defying...
Carey is a musical earth angel. Claimed by two worlds--pure pop and urban soul--she chose, a few albums ago, to integrate hip-hop into her sound. Her mostly entertaining new CD features cameos from a host of rappers, including Snoop Dogg and the gruff-voiced Mystikal. Some of Carey's lyrics are revealing: "I gravitated towards a patriarch," the now divorced diva sings in Petals. Some of her music, however, is less pointed and could use more grit.

...McClelland's overall vision was a play within a play, with Faustus as the central recipient of a conspiracy unknown to him. The intrigue not only involves deception but also more subtle gestures that aim at including the audience. I had the honor of sitting next to the bad angel (Austin Guest '03) who ingeniously concealed his presence so that he was embodied only in the spotlight he directed at Faustus. This, combined with the cover art of the program, was just another piece of a conceptually consistent production, even if it seemed a bit cryptic at the time...
Seles' supporters truly believe that she is not only a role model for tennis, but a role model for life. Scanning the letters, it was clear how much Monica means to her fans-- "she's an angel, "she deserves everything in life," "she is an example for all of us," "she's an amazing hero." Confronted with those descriptions of her, Monica becomes quiet for a second...
