...with extreme discretion, but over time Savitsky amassed more than 50,000 pieces of Gulag-era art, tracking them down in hiding places all over the Soviet Union and smuggling them to his desert sanctuary. Today, this trove can be experienced for a $4 entrance fee - or rather a fragment can, because there is no space to display it all. (Another fraction can be viewed at the museum's old premises nearby.) Ironically, it turned out that Savitsky had less to fear from the authorities - who came to know of his work but turned a blind eye - than...
...bass line. Thankfully, Sony Ericsson[an error occurred while processing this directive] is ending that frustration with two new Walkman phones that enable on-the-spot music identification. With Track ID, a technology powered by a company called Gracenote, the W850i and W950i phones can capture a song fragment wherever you hear it, and send it to Gracenote's Mobile Music ID (MMID) database for identification. In seconds the title and artist are sent to your phone display...

The space shuttle Discovery’s last mission, which was launched one year ago, also shed foam debris during its launch but landed without major complications...

Burroughs prose fragment about the Egyptian belief that we have seven souls: "Number six is Khaibit, the Shadow, Memory, your whole past conditioning from this and other lives." The shadows and memories of the dead hover close over the show, as the rubout fallout from the whackings of Adriana (Drea de Matteo) and Tony B. (Steve Buscemi) continues, not to mention Tony's continuing baggage inherited from his late mother Livia. There's a general sense, in this last season, of a deathbed taking-stock, even...
