...says a Sydney lawyer who's worked closely with Lachlan Murdoch and James Packer over the years. "James has the softness of his mother, but he's extraordinarily numerate and has a bonhomie that he got from his old man. Lachlan is measured, reflective, highly intelligent. There's a hint of clean-cut, Princeton guilelessness about him, but there's also something behind those eyes that's constantly assessing." Different they may be, but Murdoch, 36, and Packer, 40, are friends and once again a team. They've joined forces to launch a $3.06 billion takeover bid for Consolidated Media...
...same time. She lives in a world of glamour, but she never truly becomes the coquettish socialite she aspires to be. Adams has a special talent for conveying how overwhelmed Delysia really is: she bounces around from one social event to another with great enthusiasm, but her wistful eyes hint that she wants more from life.

Soon Vermont had ski resorts, billboard bans, chi-chi restaurants, yoga retreats, and liberal Democrats. "That was the kickoff for our spurt into the future," McLaughry says, with more than a hint of disapproval...
...Breaking Bad” is without any charms. The unique setting of Albuquerque, New Mexico adds regional flavor to the show. I’m also inordinately fond of Walter’s cerebral-palsy afflicted son, Walter, Jr., who’s played without a hint of maudlin sentiment by the excellent RJ Mitte. Anna Gunn does the best she can with the role of Walter’s meddling wife Skyler, but her part needs to be toned down a touch if the character is to be at all sympathetic. In general, this is probably...
