...search for Alabama abortion-clinic bombing suspect Eric Robert Rudolph. The reason is that in its fourth week, the nature of the manhunt is changing: ?As much as they like to talk about how vast and dense those woods are, chances are that if Rudolph were hiding in a cave or behind some trees they would have found him by now,? says TIME correspondent Greg Fulton...
Similarly, the worst part of life in the Quad is all the people who say it is the best place in the world. If Harvard had assigned these people housing in a cave in Peru, they would still be cheerful about it.

"I am supposedly banned from China," he notes. Friends have seen...
...shadows, borrowing judiciously from film noir past and present, whether through atmosphere or little tricks like light beams through bullet holes in a door a la "Blood Simple." Fortunately, unlike distant cousins like "The Usual Suspects" (which tortures us with things like cross-fades from coffee cups to cave mouths), it's all very bearable and, more importantly, very enjoyable...
