...while for Robert, who is still recovering from a triple coronary bypass, to fetch the shotgun now kept by the door, and by that time, the prowlers had vanished. Since then, Helen seldom ventures into the yard, even in daylight, without her 9-mm pistol. "I'm no racist. Why, I have a Mexican daughter-in-law," says Helen, 78, a stocky woman with the tenacity of a snapping turtle.

Taking tea with Thandie (pronounced Tan-dee) turns out to be a jolt of caffeine straight...
...with a reputation for unpredictability. The lackluster Washington Ballet was no less in need of new thinking, not least because it had failed to attract a racially diverse audience, an invitation to trouble in a city whose political establishment is overwhelmingly black. "Ballet as an institution has always been racist," Webre says matter-of-factly. "We have to change that. We have to make more people feel more welcome...
