...this is reality, give me my other books! Call me a sucker for escapist fiction, if you will. I take refuge in reading; I’m Matilda; I’m the baby who loves a bunch of authors. I eat a leisurely meal while leafing through Michel Faber’s The Crimson Petal and the White, and my blockmates sigh in envy, perpetually mourning the death of pleasure reading in college and wistfully nostalgic about the good old days when reading for fun wasn’t something fueled by the Improbability Drive of The Hitchhiker?...
Last November approximately 29 million viewers saw AARON BUERGE propose to schoolteacher HELENE EKSTEROWICZ on Fox's The Bachelor. Over New Year's, approximately nobody watched as they broke up. But theirs is not the most scandalous of behind-the-scenes Bachelor doings. The original, first-season Bachelor, Alex Michel, and his TV fiance, Amanda Marsh, have also called it quits. The reason?

The company is a middleman in the U.S.-Russian program to import and reprocess uranium from decommissioned Soviet-era warheads, for use in reactors. With its 15% stake in the Bruce Power...
...Josef Israëls, Matthijs Maris, Anton Mauve and their Barbizon-School cousins Charles-François Daubigny and Millet. This makes for a wonderful triple play here, cloud-filled skies sweeping over broad plains painted by three generations: Ruisdael's pastoral View of Haarlem with Bleaching Grounds, Georges Michel's barren and stormy Three Windmills and Van Gogh's powerhouse Wheatfield under Thunderclouds, a swath of chartreuse and emerald green beneath a bolt of cobalt and pale blue. Millet was second only to Rembrandt in Van Gogh's pantheon, and he copied the older artist's works throughout...
