...orphanage, a mass murder gone awry, a hidden basement, a kidnapped child, and an eerie, ghost-filled cave. Think this batch of scenarios will provide the basis for the next unbearably dull horror flick? Think again. “The Orphanage,” directed by Spanish newcomer Juan Antonio Bayona, is frightening, no doubt. The gloomy tone present throughout the entire film, the camera movements that crawl creepily around edges and corners in anticipation of jolt-inducing scenes, and spooky childhood games and lullabies will provide thrill-lovers exactly what they seek. But viewers will also come away with...
Researchers at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston announced at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium today that high-dose chemotherapy (followed by a stem-cell transplant to rebuild the immune system) after surgery does not extend the life of breast-cancer patients.

Jose Antonio Vargas, a political reporter for The Washington Post, believes that the application could even increase the number of young voters. “There’s still plenty of students out there who aren’t politically active, and all it takes now is one click,” he said...
...García Márquez style, Newell’s adaptation of “Cholera” assaults the senses with exotic pleasures. Much of the film’s beautiful footage was shot in South America’s scenic tropical rainforests. The score, composed by Antonio Pinto, and the songs—written and sung by Colombia’s finest female vocalist, Shakira—provide a harmonious touch, and exude both the lonely and hopeful tone achieved by the book. Javier Bardem, one of Spain’s finest actors, excels in his performance...
