...vulnerability - Richardson had her own gifts. Her public presence was spikier, more knowing and skeptical; she seemed not so much ageless as modern, less questing than questioning. She could locate the befuddlement of a brainwashed heiress (in the movie Patty Hearst), the crassness of an old-time good-time girl (as Sally Bowles, a Tony-winning turn, in the 1998 Broadway revival of Cabaret), the desperation in a Tennessee Williams heroine (Suddenly Last Summer on TV; A Streetcar Named Desire on Broadway). She was a watchful actress, and always worth watching...
...announcement as the most recent example of the CEB’s ineptitude. It seems crazy, the argument goes, that if Brown can get Nas and Of Montreal for their Spring Weekend, Harvard must settle for Third Eye Blind and Gavin DeGraw (and when given the opportunity to host Girl Talk, the Yard was left with little music and a near-riot). However, the CEB and the HCC, which are, together, in charge of selecting the Yardfest artists, say that such frustrated sentiments are built upon a fundamental misunderstanding of the selection process.

With Gavin DeGraw and Wu Tang Clan on stage last year, and Third Eye Blind in 2007, many criticized the CEB for selecting...
When a Jewish boy turns 13, he heads to a temple for a deeply meaningful rite of passage, his bar mitzvah. When a Catholic girl reaches about the same age, she stands in front of the local bishop, who touches her forehead with holy oil as she is confirmed into a 2,000-year-old faith tradition. But missing in each of those cases - and in countless others of equal religious importance - is any role for government. There is no baptism certificate issued by the local courthouse and no federal tax benefit attached to the confessional booth, the into...
