...never been here before, is giggling with excitement. He tells the driver to stop so he can snap a picture of a workman pounding a HELP WANTED sign into the turf. Bezos, 35, a meticulous documentarian, is worried that his life is scrolling by too fast to remember, a life that is so fantastic as to verge on the unbelievable. So he takes plenty of pictures and awful, jittery amateur videos. At the very least, they'll help tell his story to the Bezoses' first child, a boy due in March...

The good news is that I've found a way to edit old analog movies on my home computer. In fact, an entire industry has emerged to support the more...
Sometimes you just feel a little warm and dizzy. Other times your heart is pounding so fast you're afraid it will leap out of your chest. Either way, the irregular heartbeat caused by atrial fibrillation can seem very alarming. But the condition, which affects 2 million Americans and caused presidential hopeful Bill Bradley to cancel an afternoon of West Coast appearances last week, is not always the intimation of mortality that it seems. A lot depends on just how healthy the heart is in the first place. And in the case of this former Knick forward, who still occasionally...
