...driving a big rig. And manicures. And blogging. The man who wrote "Ohio" - one of the most biting protest songs rock 'n' roll has ever offered - whose emotive tenor voice helped thousands of young baby boomers struggling to understand their country, is now writing lyrics about his flat-screen TV. "Got it repo'd now," he sings in a video he posted to the Huffington Post. "Missed the Raiders game...
...White Company. Quite naturally, the dynasty flourished. The eldest, Henriette, a painter in her own right, is married to Painter Hurd. Most eccentric of the children is Carolyn, now 54, who gallivants about in a flat black Gaucho hat, paints and teaches art classes.

...hotel's philosophy, Hiscock says, is to give guests something a little different from the minibar-and-flat-screen experience so familiar from their business trips. Which means no minibar chilling tiny bottles of vodka and $5 peanuts, just an "honesty fridge" stuffed with San Miguel, lemon sodas and ice cream. No bells-and-whistles entertainment system, but a TV discreetly placed in each room and a library of children's DVDs to choose from. And in the restaurant, no culinary chemistry of foams or jus, just a beautifully simple $42 four-course dinner that makes liberal...
