...poorly at the box office. Pacquiao himself is a popular presence on Philippines television and recently signed up with the GMA broadcast network to appear in the boxing-themed drama series Totoy Bato. Pacquiao is also rumored to be appearing alongside Sylvester Stallone on the big screen in a debut U.S. movie sometime in the future; the two met last January in Los Angeles...
...Audiences ignored the weekend's other wide debut, Battle for Terra, an animated space epic in 3D that made just $1.1 million and didn't crack the top 10. That could be because another 3D science-fantasy cartoon, Monsters vs Aliens, was still raking in the bucks; it finished a sturdy fifth. DreamWorks' 3D comedy has been in release two weeks longer than any other film in the top 10, lost more theaters this weekend, yet suffered the lowest drop in attendance of all the holdovers. Even the Supreme Court, with or without David Souter, would be unanimous in finding...

Performing at the Queen’s Head tomorrow at 4 p.m., three Pforzheimer musicians will join forces to create a fresh new sound in the media of both rap and electronica. Emanuel Beica ’11, Nathan C.M.

...Ashbery’s poems were published in the Advocate during his time at Harvard, but his real breakthrough came post-graduation. His poetic debut, “Some Trees,” was selected by Auden to be published as part of the Yale Series of Younger Poets in 1956, kick-starting a prolific career distinguished by the release of another critically acclaimed work every few years. It was in 1975 that major recognition arrived, however, when he bagged all three of the nation’s major poetry prizes—the Pulitzer, the National Book Critics Circle...
...anything but. To mention two supergroups of this decade, Audioslave euthanized the fury and passion of Soundgarden and Rage Against the Machine into dull, MOR post-grunge, while Velvet Revolver strengthened the case for a mandatory retirement age for heavy metal musicians. On the evidence of this eponymous debut album, Tinted Windows fits the bill of the 21st century supergroup, not its 1970s counterpart.The first rule of the 21st century supergroup is that it is less than the sum of its parts. To be fair to Tinted Windows, its parts are pretty impressive. Perhaps the biggest tribute to James Iha?...
