...even recognized filmmaking as a legitimate industry. Armed with just good wishes and some telegrams from family and friends, we spent a riotous few days in the luxury of the Beverly Wilshire, being taken to lunch by Billy Wilder, joking with Pedro Almodóvar and his transgendered entourage, gate-crashing Spanish and Danish parties, not really minding that we were neglected by our own country. When it came time for our award, Jacqueline Bisset and Candice Bergen tripped and stuttered through the foreign names. As Jackie and Candy announced the winner in another miasma of mispronunciation, Sooni leaned across...

...latest salvo in Moulitsas? war on the right is Crashing the Gate: Netroots, Grassroots, and the Rise of People-Powered Politics,(www.crashingthegate.com) a primer co-written with Jerome Armstrong on wresting control of the Democratic party away from consultants and D.C. power brokers, a group that Moulitsas refers to as "that clubby elite club." Many of Moulitsas? colleagues in the blog world wonder if Moulitsas isn?t a member of that club himself.

...know that a horse can suffer as we do--feeling pain, fear, confusion and shock. All of that was on display at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Md., when Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro shattered his right rear leg at the Preakness Stakes just moments out of the gate. It was the most stunning racehorse disaster since the death of the famous filly Ruffian in 1975 and perhaps the most gruesome sports injury to any creature since the nationally televised sight of Washington Redskins quarterback Joe Theismann's leg snapping like a bread stick in 1985. But there's something about...

...hoof and bone that can affect the healthy left hind leg, which now bears more weight. To minimize the risk of reinjury, Barbaro will be confined in his stall for several months. The goal is not to get him fit enough to race; that option ended shortly outside the gate at Pimlico. What he does need is an ankle strong enough to support him on his hind legs for mating. (Artificial insemination is forbidden for Thoroughbreds, in part to avoid overworking a few blood lines.) "We want Barbaro to have a reasonable quality of life," says Richardson. "I think that...
