...Forget archery and softball. Last week government and "the fascinating life and times of America's 37th President" were the chief subjects of a five-day summer camp at the Richard Nixon Library and Birthplace in Yorba Linda, Calif. Activities included a '60s class, where campers learned about tie-dye and "brave American POWs," and a tour of the Barbie as First Lady exhibit. But camp isn't the only way Nixonites are reaching out to G.O.P. guppies. The library's store sells pens, one showing Elvis visiting Nixon and another showing Air Force One buzzing the White House...
...Name Game, those who have interesting names--like my friend Caille (rhymes with "dye")--should be thankful.

The college comedy-drama, much praised in its debut year, has struggled as a sophomore, prompting the risible and vaguely sexist criticism that the ratings dived because star Keri Russell cut her flowing, curly hair.

"It's something that a girl of that age, having gone through serious changes, would realistically do," says Abrams, who blames the drop-off on the cutting of a narrative strand instead: the co-ed protagonist left a long-term relationship...
...basic equipment from chemical testing kits to cars. Gatto trained himself with books and videos and bought his own cell phone, cameras, video and tape recorders for preserving evidence. He learned all the tricks for detecting concealed improper discharges of waste. For example, he could put a green dye tablet into a toilet and rush outside to examine the water flowing into a storm drain. If it turned green, it meant that sewage was illegally running into the drain. He sat next to pipes throughout the night waiting for intermittent eruptions of toxic effluent. He busted apartment buildings, stores...
