...Obama's campaign slogan is "change." However, his actions are not consistent with this message. For one thing, his running mate has been in the U.S. Senate for the past 30 years. What kind of change will an Obama-Biden ticket bring for voters? Obama is full of hot air and will soon deflate when American voters realize that he stands for nothing and that his campaign has been filled with self-congratulation and egotism. Obama should be judged not by the color of his skin but by the content of his policies. Van Hang, Sydney...
...least that was how it was supposed to work. About a year ago Hirst announced that the skull had fetched the full $100 million price. But the purchasers turned out to be a still unidentified consortium of investors that include Dunphy, Jopling and Hirst. Dunphy says the three of them maintain a "controlling interest in the work" - meaning they sold the biggest stake to themselves. Eventually, he insists, they will resell it, after it has toured a few museums. A planned exhibition at the Hermitage in St. Petersburg fell through - Dunphy says he and the museum couldn't agree...

I wonder, for example, what the First Lady would make of Jane Mayer's extraordinary account of the Bush Administration's torture policy, The Dark Side, which I read simultaneously with American Wife. It is no small astonishment that Sittenfeld's portrait of the President and his circle made Mayer's horror story more plausible for me: suddenly...
Like a homespun IPO, CatwalkGenius.com helps hoi polloi bankroll upstart fashion designers. British documentary filmmaker Franny Armstrong raised more than £450,000 ($815,000) to finance--and work full time on--The Age of Stupid, which she hopes will premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in January. People who gave 20 quid ($35) got a credit on the film's website; those who gave £5,000 ($9,000) and up will get a percentage of the profits, if there...
