...these two are French, 1920s. Duke Ellington's jazz floats from the bedroom, and Sam's latest purchase, a gold jacquard smoking jacket, hangs behind the door. Caitlin, an ad copywriter for Bon Appetit, stirs the polenta, while Sam, who works with a caterer favored by fashion shoots, serves goat cheese on pizza bianca.

MARFA, Texas: A marine who shot and killed a teenage Mexican goat herder acted in self-defense, a grand jury ruled yesterday. Although they lost the case, the incident has created new respect for the Texas Rangers, who rallied behind the teenager Esequiel Hernandes Jr.- presenting evidence in his favor. It was a peculiar twist, since the Rangers had previously been considered "legendarily racist in their dealings along the border," according to TIME's Sam Gwynne, who has been following the case...
