...know such an important part of my life." His mother responds, "Keeping certain secrets secret is important to the general balance of life." His father Owen cries quietly. He too has a secret; he too is gay. Before THE LOST LANGUAGE OF CRANES plays out, Owen will reveal that secret, permanently altering the family's fragile balance. This BBC adaptation of David Leavitt's novel, airing June 24 on pbs, transposes the setting from New York City to London. Graced with intense, subtle performances, the tale remains compelling, but the change of locale distances already remote characters and undercuts...

But thwarting Lyme disease is not so easy, as anyone knows who has ever searched for the poppy seed-size tick that carries it, or for its unmistakable rash -- which sometimes never appears at all.

Selina Kyle, the single woman with a lousy love life, is also the vengeful kitten with a whip: "I am - Catwoman! Hear me roar!" Bruce and Selina are drawn to each other's worldly wise grace and the hint of hidden wounds. They are attracted by the fear...
...charges against her are true -- and even her attorney does not seem to dispute her career as a pubescent prostitute -- Fisher's sordid story still would seem to have little to reveal about the norms of her community. Her town of Merrick is a place where success is equated with discipline, exemplified in the manicured lawns and shrubbery of Berkley Lane, where she grew up, and with drive and ambition, epitomized in the way the high school carries grade-point averages out to four decimal places for precision in class rank. This is where the American Dream still works, where...
