...rest of the movie--of an apparently happy, eminently normal family gathered together for a birthday party. The story then cuts to 20 years later, with the annual Thanksgiving reunion with the folks (Roy Scheider and Blythe Danner). This year, all four children show up: Mia (Julianne Moore), Jake (Michael Vartan), Leigh (Laurel Holloman), and, somewhat unexpectedly, the long-absent Warren (Noah Wyle). Significant others are in attendance: Mia's boyfriend, Elliot (Brian Kerwin); Jake's girlfriend, Margaret (Hope Davis); and, flitting in and out of the family picture, past and present, Warren's ex-girlfriend, Daphne (Arija Bareikis...
...blustery November afternoon in 1990, 12 Amish carpenters and 55 Amish and Mennonite farmers raised the Clinic for Special Children. Wielding sledgehammers, Douglas fir timbers and stout oak pegs, they framed the post-and-beam building by the end of the day. "Now when Jake's mules turn at the end of a row," says Morton, "he often looks to see if I am at my laboratory window.

The movie, produced by Swishin' an' Dishin...

My usual chores were sweeping up and cleaning the job presses while Jake, the publisher, made up the front page. By 7 p.m. we lugged the forms to the bed of the press and ran a proof. Then we pulled the lever and started the first of 1,000 sheets of newsprint into the guides. In 1990 I returned to Dinuba. The paper had long since...
Five years ago, Sinead O'Connor ripped up a photo of the Pope on TV. Recently, she's been quietly putting her own life back together. A single mother, she's raising her son Jake, 10, and daughter Roisin, 1, and taking college courses about her native Ireland. The new, more introspective O'Connor, 30, is now touring the U.S. to promote Gospel Oak, her graceful six-song mini-album. She spoke with TIME's Christopher John Farley on the phone from London before the tour began...
