...release of Bee Movie, Seinfeld plans to return to being a stand-up comic and quasi-stay-at-home dad. Home for Seinfeld (who made a reported $225 million for Seinfeld's syndication alone and appears almost annually on Forbes' list of richest celebrities) is an apartment overlooking Central Park. It's also an estate in the Hamptons, on Long Island, that he purchased for $32 million from Billy Joel in 2000 and a new spread in Telluride, Colo., not far from Tom Cruise's place. He keeps his collection of Porsches (he won't say how many, though...
...next course on making the fine distinction between a Damien Hirst and a flash in the pan coincides with the Frieze Art Fair in London's Regent's Park (Oct. 11-13), where Sotheby's Institute will offer special guidance on Indian art and the Young British Artists; there's a parallel course for Russian speakers...
...peeved, tired banter with your neighbor in line? Lyndell’s Bakery, just across the street, offers up pastry classics: danishes, scones, and generously frosted cupcakes in white cardboard boxes tied with string.

Now instead of my being famous for negotiating peace between Israel...
...three rounds of 75, 70, and 72 gave him the team’s highest individual finish—a 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...
