...moment I had to wonder: Did I set a world record for critics by seeing different films in three countries in three days? The Answer: probably not. Kevin Murphy, best known as a writer-performer on the late, great Mystery Science Theater 3000, spent the year 2001 on a world tour seeing a different film every day (and wrote up this punishing experience in a wonderfully funny, thoughtful book, A Year at the Movies). Murphy is bound to have equaled or eclipsed my itinerary. And I couldn't touch him for stamina...
...half as much force. So it's unclear what coaches and parents can do with the impact data, at least until more is known about what causes concussions. "We don't pull people out of a game or a practice simply because they registered some high-value hit," says Kevin Guskiewicz, director of the University of North Carolina's Sports Medicine Research Laboratory, who will soon publish five semesters' worth of helmet data from UNC players showing the wide range of force that led to concussions...

Diana Rigg's stately performance as Huma - and her excerpts as Blanche DuBois - anchors one of the largest casts at the Old Vic since Kevin Spacey took over as artistic director in 2003. "The play is an experiment, and I'm very lucky to be in it," Rigg told TIME...

University of Virginia psychiatrist Bruce Greyson reported recently on a tantalizing investigation into whether the observations people claim to make during an NDE (details of their resuscitation, the color of a nurse's shoes) are in fact accurate. Meanwhile, University of Kentucky neurophysiologist Kevin Nelson theorizes that NDEs are what can happen when a particular sleep state intrudes on the imperiled brain. "I wouldn't say it's definitive," says Nelson. "But it's an intriguing hypothesis that answers a great deal...
...documentary program alone could occupy and satisfy anyone with an itch to travel to distant lands and the darkest places of the soul. Werner Herzog journeys to Antarctica for Encounters at the End of the World. Kevin Macdonald's My Enemy's Enemy considers the life and crimes of Nazi butcher Klaus Barbie. Barbet Schroeder's Terror's Advocate is a fascinatingly equivocal study of Jacques Vergès, who defended Barbie and many of last century's most notorious figures...
