...Hudson, who co-produced the film, fares less well. Sporting bangs so long they seem poised for an attack on the rest of her face, she appears oddly aged. Her Liv has the brittle, hard quality of a Kim Cattrall. It's distracting; my inner voice kept muttering, "What has Kate Hudson done with her freshness? It should not be used up at 29!" Perhaps a diet of strictly romcom fare is no healthier for movie stars than it is for audiences. Still, Hudson does win the bridal wars in one sense: when it comes to The Dress...
...Adolph Stern coined the term borderline in the 1930s, borderline patients were said to be those between Freud's two big clusters: psychosis and neurosis. Borderlines, Stern wrote rather poetically, exhibit "psychic bleeding - paralysis in the face of crises." Later, in the 1940s, Dr. Helene Deutsch said borderlines experience "inner emptiness, which the patient seeks to remedy by attaching himself or herself to one after another social or religious group." By 1968, when Basic Books published the groundbreaking monograph The Borderline Syndrome, the No. 1 characteristic of borderline patients was said to be, simply, anger...
...than ever before. Just a few weeks before Reid's announcement, Martin Pohl, an associate professor of physics and astronomy at Iowa State University, revealed the most detailed map to date of the galaxy's spiral arms. Pohl's map establishes that there are two symmetric arms in the inner part of the galaxy that branch off into four - answering a question that astrophysicists have grappled with for 50 years. (According to Pohl, our solar system is located near one of the branching-off points, about 28,000 light-years - or 168 quadrillion miles - from the galactic center...
Pohl's map is the first to take into account the entirety of the Milky Way, including its elusive inner galaxy, which is "really complicated and weird," Pohl says, because of the gravitational pull of a large bar of matter located at the center; the map will be particularly useful to a research group in France that has been studying dark matter, which, as Reid's team has established, the Milky Way has a lot more of than previous studies had revealed. Dark matter, so called because it gives off little or no light, is one of the most abundant...
...gathering took place, is symbolic of Iraq's importance: it is enormous. It is also a testament to the continued fragility of the country Washington seeks to build an alliance with. The structure is heavily fortified. From the outside, it resembles an austere, sand-colored fortress. From the inner courtyard, small symmetrical windows are covered by heavy screens that shelter the buildings from incoming rockets and mortars. One U.S. soldier said it reminded her of a maximum-security prison. "If my parents could see this, they wouldn't be so worried," said another...
