...city council job. People come up to him and thank him for giving them summer jobs when they were kids, a program that endeared thousands to Barry when he was mayor. He greets women with a ?hey darling, what?s happening,? kissing the younger ones some on the cheek and telling one, ?you look fabulous, you know.? Barry says he?s only focused on his ward and not interested in his old job, and most Washington political observers says his support is too limited for him to win another mayoral race. But it looks Barry will stay on the political...
...which consumers can get anything tailor-made to their needs--has hit the skin-care market. A company called Lab21, headquartered in Stony Brook, N.Y., creates individually formulated products based on a quantitative genetic test. Customers take an at-home DNA test (by swabbing the inside of their cheek) and answer a questionnaire about the health of their skin. Lab21's SkinProfiler System then creates a custom formula to treat specific conditions--for example, acne, redness or aging. Prices range from $80 for 2.5 oz. of antioxidant fluid with SPF to $600 for a complete custom skin-care line including...
...power racquets and booming strokes, tennis is a game of timing. A woman in her 30s wins a watch in a raffle, and it's for Federer to present it to her.

Mostly he grins and chuckles while talking about how well he's been playing, how no other player seems able to touch him, and about all the compliments he's been receiving from his fellow pros and greats...
...town's 790 males. After that, the cops may cast a wider net, reaching neighboring towns. They started by approaching men at Truro's few outposts--the post office, the pizza place, the grocery store--and politely asking each if they could swipe a lollipop-size swab inside his cheek. It's strictly voluntary, and the Truro men can say no. Then again, the police are taking the license-plate numbers of all the men they approach, and will be noting those who refuse the test...
...hilarious. Meryl Streep lives up to her legendary reputation in the role of the neurotic Aunt Josephine; she is as bemusing in her phobias as she is touching in her delusions. Jude Law, the voice of Lemony Snicket, provides a pleasant balance between soothing narrator tones and tongue-in-cheek sarcasm. The three Baudelaire children are compelling too, but—perhaps unsurprisingly, considering their dazzling co-stars—they are the least notable of the performers. Occasionally, their acting seems forced, perhaps due to a combination of inexperience and the rare instances of clumsy dialogue...
