Some actors lend their voices to CGI characters: Alan Rickman to the Caterpillar, Stephen Fry to the Cheshire Cat, the 92-year-old Gough (in his fifth Burton film) as the Dodo Bird. Other stars appear in fanciful makeup. Johnny Depp's Mad Hatter matches his flaming red hair with red eyeliner, as if he'd been crying for years; he's a gentleman ghoul out of Johnny Weir's closet. Anne Hathaway, as the White Queen, is given crimson lips, platinum hair and, alas, no redeeming quirks. Bonham Carter (Burton's partner offscreen) sports blue eye shadow that could...
Perhaps it was not surprising, then, that the two skaters who stumped Mazzotta and the Big Red defense were senior Randi Griffin and junior Leanna Coskren. Despite ranking fourth and fifth among Harvard’s scoring leaders, respectively, neither had scored on Mazzotta in the two earlier matchups between the teams...

Virginia's Fifth Congressional District is about the size of New Jersey. Sprawling from the center of the state down to the North Carolina border, it was once home to thriving textile and tobacco industries. But jobs have been drying up for decades; in the city of Martinsville, unemployment has soared over 20%. Outside such liberal enclaves as Charlottesville, the district is a conservative stronghold of farms and small-business owners who resent federal intrusions. In 2008, Perriello cashiered incumbent Republican Virgil Goode by capitalizing on an Obama-fueled turnout of African-American and college-age voters. And while Perriello...
