...gems like amethyst, malachite and lapis lazuli. Amethyst is locally prized for its supposed healing properties (it's common to find chunks of it lying in homes to counter bad luck). Malachite is used in popular fashion accessories, worn by Chilean women in bracelets and anklets as they sashay down the Parque Arauco Mall. But lapis, the most well-known Chilean stone, is the visitors' favorite. Expect to pay $100 for a choker necklace and earrings, $200 for a longer chain, and $600 for a pair of candlesticks. A word of caution: Chilean lapis may contain veins of chalk, which...
...seems that Harvard Law students are having just as much trouble finding fun on a Friday night as their College counterparts. After watching more attractive female undergrads sashay into Daedalus while they were denied entrance, two male HLS students called HUPD and the Cambridge police, alleging gender discrimination. Cambridge police responded to the ruckus in full force, dispatching two patrol cars and a paddy wagon in addition to a faithful HUPD vehicle. Upon the officers’ arrival, a mass exodus of the bar ensued. “I thought it was an ID raid. We bailed...
...Robert Korzeniowski cruises around the track at his training base in the northern French town of Tourcoing, his body - tan, lithe, tautly muscled - obviously belongs to a world-class athlete.

The Pole, world-record holder in the 50-km racewalk, is zooming. "When I train with him," says Norway's Kjersti Plätzer, the 2000 Olympic silver medalist in the women's 20 km, "he walks...
Although she bears a striking resemblance to a certain mane-tossing, 1970s crime fighter, newcomer TRICIA HELFER didn't just sashay into character for NBC's Behind the Camera: The Unauthorized Story of Charlie's Angels, airing in March. Growing up in Canada, the former model had no TV, so the role required work. There was Fawcett's walk to learn and history to absorb. And then there were the physical enhancements. The hair extensions were easy. But how did Helfer mimic the other iconic parts of Fawcett's physique? "We had a range of prosthetic nipples," says Helfer...
Room on Fire reaches its peak with the tender midtempo ballad Under Control. It opens with Moretti's Zeppelin trick, takes off on Hammond's buoyant lead strumming and moves with the melodic sashay of a Bob Marley hit. Over the top of it all is Casablancas, going on about a relationship, of course. He sings, "I don't want to change your mind/I don't want to change the world/I just want to watch it go by." And if the Strokes want to look good doing it? I suppose that's excusable...
