...Myers' spruce now has 1,500 small gold lights, a gold garland, red star ornaments, gold balls and a star on top (placed by Amy Carter) that has a torch modeled after the one held by the Statue of Liberty.

By the time Evita dies of cancer at age 33, we know she's a "legend," but we have no idea of how to judge her: to Rice, fascism seems to be more a cultural style than a political ideology. Elaine Paige, 30, the heretofore unknown actress who plays Evita...
