Among the telltale signs of trouble at 12 months: not responding to one's name; not sharing interests through pointing and eye gaze; lack of joyful expression; an absence of babbling; difficulty establishing eye contact; and staring too long at inanimate objects (see FirstSigns.org for more early-warning signs). Investigators have identified these red-flag signs of autism by looking at early home videos of children who were diagnosed at age 3 or later and by studying the younger siblings of children with autism, who have relatively high rates - perhaps 15% - of the disorder. But no single behavior is indicative...
...movie star, but of what era? Adept at comedy and solemnity, synthesizing Michael J. Fox and David Cassidy in their early adorable phases, he is, so far, a movie anachronism - a throwback to when there was a big market for nice. Utterly at ease in the camera's gaze, he's not a preener; he gives the impression of being an O.K. guy who in his spare time is also this teen heartthrob. Which may be a higher form of acting: star acting...
...most American of young heroes—a rebel without a cause, a lost genius falling into the unstoppable maelstrom of his own reckless energy. Together Jane and Cleveland make for a sort of Abercrombie and Fitch representation of youth, their skin literally glowing under the soft gaze of cinematographer Michael Barrett’s lens.

If she actually looked directly at me, I have no idea, because I instantly sent my gaze to the floor. But she looked in my direction nonetheless. That was the sign I was looking for. The green light. I decided that right after class got out, I would go home a different way. I would go home the way she went home. Then, somehow I would talk...
...powerful vehicle for illuminating the objectification of women. Rather than viewing the two causes as a trade-off, vegan activists, in betraying the hegemonic process whereby animals are removed from the idea of meat, should underscore the similar process whereby females are packaged as objects for the male gaze. Without the allure of attractive, naked female bodies, such a project may garner less shock-and-awe publicity. Yet, if vegan activists wish to maintain the consistency of their liberal agenda, they must eschew trading the exploitation of one vulnerable group for the exploitation of another...
