...fact that electronica duo Daft Punk has recorded a live album called “Alive 2007” begs two questions. One: why should we care about their bleep-blooping in general? And two: what’s the point of a live electronica album, besides pointing out the performance’s inherent irony? (Yeah, we get it: you’re two humans making “live” robot music. That’s funny.) With regard to the first question: because they’re popular and they’ve affected popular culture...
...recent adaptation of “Pride and Prejudice,” which, like this flick, also starred Keira Knightley. As a fan of neither Keira’s wolfish style of beauty nor her interpretation of Elizabeth Bennet, I was originally reluctant to see the Wright-Knightley duo assault another one of my favorite books.

Thousands are destitute in the land of plenty, and this should no longer be tolerated if the U.S. is determined to be an exemplary society for the rest of the world. As a pragmatic liberal, Clinton can get the U.S. on the right track, as certainly as it has become derailed under President George...
...first half, Harvard was flawless from the free throw line—10-of-10—with six shots to Housman’s credit. Additionally, Pusar couldn’t miss—perfect from both the field and the charity stripe. The dynamic duo posted more than half of the Crimson score with 23 points between them.“I think my strength is doing the little things,” Pusar said. “We got good ball movement, people were able to find me, but at the same time, they...
