...Chicago at Indiana's expense - like Alfred Hitchcock's thriller North By Northwest, in which Cary Grant gets chased between Chicago and Indianapolis. In Chicago, Cary does suave, urbane things like thwart the bad guys at a high-rent art auction; in Indiana he gets attacked by a crop duster in a scene that makes the rural fields I used to run in look like a benighted dust bowl. Frank Sinatra sang about Chicago's Union Stockyards - but never about the Indianapolis stockyards I worked at in the summers with my grandfather...
...latest Hollywood knuckle-duster trend requires something of a certain scale, which explains the obsession with big cocktail rings decked out with colored stones. Pomellato has tons from which to choose, including the Narciso, available at the Italian jeweler's first U.S. boutique, opening this month in New York City...
...tried not to look as if they had wandered into a Star Dreck convention. The audience judged a costume contest: dozens of odd fellows dressed as their favorite Rocky characters. Everyone had a ball. Richard O'Brien, dressed for the occasion in a cunning black tube top with feather-duster hem, black mesh stockings and a rhinestone choker, set the tone for the evening, and offered a clue to his film's enduring, endearing popularity, when he proclaimed, "It's very hard sometimes to separate fantasy from reality. Let's keep it that way!" Sage advice, in side or outside...

The Mexicans will also focus on flight schools and aviation facilities on their side of the frontier. And another episode has some senior U.S. officials worried: the theft of a crop-duster aircraft south of San Diego, apparently by three men from southern Mexico who assaulted a watchman and then flew off in a southerly direction. Though the theft's connection to terrorism remains unclear, a senior U.S. law-enforcement official notes that crop dusters can be used to disperse toxic substances...
...their space-age kinkiness, seem to have parallels almost straight off the runways. For fall 2003, the Milan design house Costume National is offering up a number of shiny, black leather ensembles that echo Trinity's outfit. For his menswear collection, Michael Kors sent down the catwalks a leather duster not unlike the one sported by Morpheus. The rubber suit worn in Reloaded by Monica Bellucci, as well as the leather pantsuit apparently molded onto Jada Pinkett Smith, also seems familiar in the 21st century, albeit primarily from the pages of fetish catalogs...
