...believe in mysticism, and that he wasn’t going to “reach into our brains.” Having satisfied our skepticism, he went around the room and asked each of us if we suffered from depression or anxiety and whether we were feeling any pain. If someone said they did—all the old women had achy joints—he moved his hand around like a magician and flapped his fingers in their direction. All of them said their pain was gone.

...Surviving Loss, Regaining Life I was riveted by Weisskopf's story of horrific pain and soul searching [Oct. 2].

Unlike their Australian rivals, Bordeaux winemakers aren't free...
...comedian in America—saw a preview screening of this and said that he made the projectionist stop midway through because he was laughing too hard. I don’t actually laugh at the trailer, I just marvel at it. It makes you forget about the inevitable pain that you’ll feel when you have to sit through the build-ups to the punchlines in the interviews. Just enough to entice, not so much as to disgust. Just like the full-body Speedo that Borat wears in one shot of the trailer. Rocky Balboa CELLULOID GOLD...
