Despite his odd off-screen romance with starlet Katie Holmes, it’s impossible to dislike Cruise, and his character’s shortcomings as a parent are quickly forgiven once people start dying. His children continue to oppose him in the movie, though, and you frequently wish that he’d just ditch them, or at least put a muzzle on Fanning to stop the shrieking...
...supporters in every state, whom he can begin early to shape into the kind of national organization he had to jerry-build from scratch in 1984.

The Walters Prize judge was 2007 Biennale director Robert Storr, giving the artists a head start for this year's race...
...more liberal Pope could bring about much change. The Catholic Church will always insist on the Pope's overarching status. Europe will not be saved by the Pope, nor will Christianity grow in Western Europe, as almost two millenniums of church tyranny will not be easily forgotten or forgiven. My hope is that the next Pope will be a man who will truly attempt to bring reconciliation to the universal church of Jesus Christ. Craig Lester Spalding, England Pope Benedict can, I trust, give much to the church; help the poor and the sinners; and since he is German, influence...
