...government tried to prevent it, little bits of reality kept seeping out from behind the curtain. At the Grand People's Study House, a sort of public library that conducts free classes in a variety of subjects, a colleague accidentally opened a door and found herself in a classroom that was dimly lit and at least 15°F (8°C) colder than the ones we had been shown. Some of the students wore winter jackets and hats. Earlier that morning, a member of the orchestra arrived late for a lavish breakfast buffet and found a couple of waitresses taking pictures...

From this collaboration stemmed a shared aesthetic and fascination with secrecy, which ultimately led to their artistic alliance. “The central insight of the film is the way secrecy imbues power to those...
...hard as the government tried to prevent it, some reality seeped out that day. At the People's Study House, a sort of public library that also conducts classes, a colleague accidentally opened a door and found herself in a classroom; it was dimly lit and at least "15 degrees colder than the ones we're being shown," she said.

Leicht, the NIU senior, says he sensed little university effort to solicit an array of student opinions about Cole Hall's fate. Instead of tearing it down, he suggests the school not only convert...
...part better than Arnold, 36, does. With slicked-back hair, a gap-toothed smile and an energy that would exhaust most meth addicts, he's become the gadget guy for top New York City chefs, as well as a teacher at the French Culinary Institute. In his Manhattan classroom, he trolls the Web for old medical equipment that he can rig into appliances chefs don't even know they need yet: rotary evaporators, vacuum pumps, thermal circulators. His cooking shelves look like a pharmacy, filled with bottles of powder: guar gum, calcium lactate, sodium alginate. Until recently, he carried...
