...Indeed, Sleuth (which Pinter has said he never saw performed) is a project that seems perfect for him. He made his esteemed rep with creepy, enigmatic studies of human menace - works like The Caretaker, The Homecoming, Old Times, No Man's Land. He'd put two people in a room (that is, on the stage) and not let them out till the bitterness erupted and the blood flowed. Such was Pinter's craft and nerve that the audience felt as caged as the characters. It just made sense to let him loose on Shaffer's one-room play about...

Some were presidential advisers--like Roger Taney, James Byrnes and Abe Fortas. Dwight Eisenhower put Earl Warren in the job after the then Governor locked up California for Ike in 1952. There have been relatively obscure state-court judges like William Brennan and Sandra Day O'Connor...
...basic training—in short, a phony soldier. When pressed by a caller on Sept. 28 to explain his use of the plural, Limbaugh cited Scott Thomas Beauchamp, whose stories of war crimes by U.S. soldiers were retracted by The New Republic. And regardless of whether Limbaugh employed perfect grammar, a literal reading of the transcript shows he did not call soldiers who oppose the war “phony...
