Second, my Motorola Q phone, like everybody else’s, stopped working, making me inaccessible to anybody outside of my immediate vicinity. So, there have been fewer interruptions; my time has been less compartmentalized, so I could enjoy two hours at Felipe’s as if it was a Shabbat dinner. That’s how Felipe’s became a family restaurant...
...meantime, Lohan's sway with audiences is waning, says Steve Levitt, president of Marketing Evaluations Inc./The Q Scores Company, a firm which evaluates celebrities for marketers. "This is a sad case of a young celebrity who can't get out of her own way and is losing her appeal," says Levitt.

Now, under his auspices, a zillionaire comic...

Berlin, with those six (terrific) songs, and Harold Rome, with three (lesser) ones, might be overrepresented in a show meant to be panoramic. The two sketches are amusing, and give the stars a chance to mewl and mug becomingly; but, from the same book (The Greatest Revue Sketches) that Viertel & Co. dipped into, I'd have chosen George S. Kaufman's brief, devastating "If Men Played Cards...
