...lecturer in Organismic and Evolutionary Biology—into a veritable museum of the Darwinian process. FM recently visited the home that Berry shares with his wife and fellow curator, Professor of Biology Naomi E. Pierce, to get a glimpse of both the décor and the man behind...
...coffeehouse's décor has received few updates since the day it opened 50 years ago - Dec. 16, 1959 - in a former Chinese laundry on North Wells Street in Chicago's Old Town neighborhood.

This season, a holiday-décor company is marketing the CHRIST-mas Tree, a bushy artificial tree with a giant cross where the trunk should be. And the Colorado-based nonprofit Focus on the Family is continuing its Stand for Christmas campaign to highlight the offenses of Christmas-denying retailers. The campaign was launched, according to its website, because "citizens across the nation were growing dissatisfied with the tendency of corporations to omit references to Christmas from holiday promotions...
