...loved you all my life." She's Clare (Rachel McAdams), a young artist, and in her past - Henry's future - he has visited her and won her undying devotion. Henry, you see, has the gift or curse of time-traveling: disappearing from one temporal and spatial reality to pop up, naked, in another. This science-fiction trope will be familiar to fans of The Terminator, but Henry is no action-fantasy god. He's just a guy whose body has a wanderlust he can't harness. That's why, as he tells the besotted Clare, "I never wanted anything...
...aughts” are the ’80s for the Padres and they’ll be turning the ship around in the teens. They certainly have the young talent to do that. Guys like Adrian Gonzalez, Kevin Kouzmanoff, and Chase Headley provide some pop in the lineup, assuming the Padres can hold onto them. Tony Gwynn, Jr. sure is a chip off the old block, maintaining a formidable average, but only boasting one homerun. The pitching needs a boost, especially with Jake Peavy gone, but Ivy-grad Chris Young is a class act and Heath Bell in closer...
...never know who will open their doors at 4 p.m. - the hour that most of the owners, being night owls, prefer to commence business. "It's completely different from a mall - it's still independent and nonmainstream," says indie filmmaker Bong Salaveria.

So was the store...
...expansive Grand Thrift House, tel: (63) 920 962 3079, run by a family of antique and curio collectors - expect vintage Elvis posters, brick-sized cell phones and secondhand photography books (if you're lucky, you'll find one that features a youthful Imelda Marcos cavorting with Madame Mao). Pop-culture fiends will delight in Sputnik, tel: (63-2) 709 1867, which sells local and international comics as well as vinyl toys, while fans of vintage furniture will find peace among the mid-century modern antiques of Karma, tel: (63-2) 437 0748, whose olive-green walls and steep red staircase...
...piece of its portfolio: 84 homesites in Hidden Springs. Jim Hunter, of Boise Hunter Homes, was there to buy. Hunter figures GMAC had already plowed about $88,000 per lot into the neighborhood by laying down streets and sewer lines. In the fire sale, he spent $52,000 a pop. And so the land was recycled - from an overextended national company to a more nimble local player able to put it to good economic use. It was, in its own small way, a step back to normal...
