...Democrats, a hidden benefit of last week's defeat may be that it has forced them to take their adversary seriously. After Sept. 11, many liberals believed Bush's popularity would eventually disappear as the memory of the attacks faded, the way his father's did after the glow of the Gulf War. But the election demonstrated that this war remains immediate to many Americans, and that they still view this President as a reliable guardian of the country's resolve. "Democrats have to come to terms with just how popular the President is," says a senior Democratic aide. "They...
...have their application assessed. Those who’ve just popped in without a reservation should prepare for purgatory (but what a luxurious purgatory it is: Customers fidget on purposely distressed leather sofas while they anxiously await admission). All this entrance-intrigue is bathed in the lurid, erotic glow of red lamps clasped in the fangs of ornate snake-candelabra, or coyly veiled in rice paper (wasn’t it Woody Allen who used a red light bulb as a sexual expedient in Annie Hall?).

As twilight approaches, the dancer’s bending shadows are cast on the church’s stone walls. The audience seated in an intimate three-tier platform directly in front of the dancers challenges the traditional distance between performer and viewer. Cabaret-like tables pepper the tiers. Reminiscent of smoke-filled clubs, the Weimar republic and Marlene Dietrich, Mateo says the tables allow the audience...
...wait for my shipment of Glow to arrive, and bemoan the fact that I would be a far richer woman and well on my way to a debt-free education if I had only had a camera (imagine how much Entertainment Tonight would pay for a picture of Ben feeding Jennifer chocolate cake—which I had cut!), I thought I’d share this story with all the other celebrity-dazzled, Oscar-watching, magazine-reading moviegoers out there. You know you are one if a) you agree that imdb.com is one of the best procrastinatory tools...
