...generations by the possibility that a genuine life portrait of the man survives somewhere. Now Stanley Wells, professor emeritus of Shakespeare Studies at Birmingham University and one of the world's most distinguished Shakespeare scholars, says he has identified one. Wells is convinced that an oil painting on wood panel that has rested for centuries in the collection of an old Irish family was painted from life around 1610, when Shakespeare was 46. If that's so, it would be the only true likeness we have of the greatest writer of the English language. (See the 100 best novels...
...Sustainable Career Fair - twice the number who attended last year, according to organizers. But while the popularity of the packed fair was a sign that not even Ivy Leaguers are immune from job worries in this recession, it also signaled that green jobs - which include everything from solar panel installers to EPA administrators - could be a rare bright spot for employment.

...book doesn't lend itself particularly well to film. It's a long, many-threaded serial narrative that's not meant to be forcibly administered in one dose.

Crump ’10 kicked things off by explaining the prizes and the grading system that would be used by the judges—an expert panel of roommates, a former head of Veritas Records, and some guy from MIT. Each band would be “graded based on sound, performance, and lastly but certainly not least, crowd reaction.” And with that she introduced the first band, Elephantom, who drew a big round...
...Even before Wynn and others moved to Macau, the former Portuguese colony and den of iniquity that is now part of the People's Republic of Gambling, Las Vegas was catering to its Asian clientele. The Encore is no exception. The elevator panel shows the floors climbing to 63, but floors numbered from 40 to 49 are missing, since the pronunciation for the number four in Cantonese and Mandarin is too close to the word for death. Very bad chi. On the life-fulfilling side, the Encore has a 60,000-sq.-ft. spa and gym that caters...
