...factor that caused them to get behind Senator Obama’s bid for the presidency. This is in no small part thanks to Senator Obama’s inclusive rhetoric on the campaign trail that employs phrases like “Yes we can,” which lend a strong sense of community to a movement that is gearing itself towards change. Obama has brought together a diverse coalition of people from different backgrounds with the promise of reaching across partisan divides and barriers of race. Obama’s contagious enthusiasm for political change has empowered...
...this old admirer of these three ex-child stars renders a mixed verdict on their London tours. Penelope has no special reason to be, but Ricci gives it a comely sheen.

Perhaps the synthesis of her artistic and political goals works best on “Master Teacher...
...oldest independent library that manages to be a fitting re-imagination instead of a hideous attempt at revision. In July 2006, Kellner spent two weeks at the Boston Athenaeum on the eve of its 200th anniversary, serving as bicentennial artist-in-residence. The commissioned pictures of the Boston Athenaeum lend the building a “kinetic energy that metaphorically invokes the intellectual and cultural vitality of the institution,” according to Richard Wendorf, the director of the Athenaeum. In Kellner’s photographic reconstructions of famous landmarks, such as the Eiffel Tower, the structure disassembles...
