...house at the Regal Union Square Theatre in Manhattan was stoked for the midnight screening of Saw III. The crowd of predominantly young men, some with dates, lent sympathetic attention to the trailers for Turistas (American kids trapped in the house of a Brazilian madman) and The Messengers (the Pang brothers' monster house movie).

And China's emerging dominance of pairs skating is about to receive a powerful boost: the Russian pair will not be skating in the world championships in Calgary next month because they plan...
...book is not high art, but it stirs a pang of recognition in any man who has rocked a sleepless infant or grasped a bedridden father's hand--as well as a tingly intuition of the special nature of those particular players. When the young Joseph muses that "when You settled into my arms it felt as if I were holding heaven," the Christian reader is meant to realize that he actually...
