...that most American of plays, Death of a Salesman, Willy Loman, father of two layabout sons, is stunned to find that his neighbor's boy is arguing a case before the Supreme Court and hasn't mentioned it. "He don't have to," his neighbor answers. "He's gonna do it." A coda to that idea is offered in the elegiac new documentary In the Shadow of the Moon. One of the scenes shows the men of Mission Control lighting cigars after the 1969 splashdown of Apollo 11. Behind them, on a control room viewing screen, two words are projected...
...next few months, Seinfeld will be making a brief yet very noticeable return to mass media, a comeback that began four years ago when he had dinner with director Steven Spielberg, a partner in DreamWorks SKG and a neighbor of Seinfeld's in New York's tony Hamptons. The star casually mentioned an idea for an animated movie to Spielberg. "A movie about bees," Seinfeld says he told the director, "called Bee Movie." (As in B movie, get it?)

...21st century?" In Nyamata, Jacqueline Nyiramayonde, 42, describes her journey across the country in 1994, as she fled the genocide with her children.

Lyndell’s Bakery, just across the street, offers up pastry classics: danishes, scones, and generously frosted cupcakes in white cardboard boxes tied with string. Abundant seating with a view of the Tufts campus is available nearby in Nathan Tufts Park. To complete the day, one could stop...
...four-way tie for 33rd. Sophomore Peter Singh finished tied for 64th with a performance of 15 over par. The McLaughlin took place on the Bethpage State Park Red Course, which plays a length of 6,695 yards. Still, the Red is overshadowed by its more famous neighbor, Bethpage Black, so difficult that most amateurs have reason to brag simply for breaking 100. In contrast to the Black, the Red course has relatively flat greens, which run fast enough to give players the challenge of stopping the ball close to the hole. “The nice thing is that...
