Tharp's "In the Upper Room," also performed for the first time by the Boston Ballet, is unquestionably a masterpiece. The dancers first enter in Norma Kamali's stylish black-and-white-striped costumes with only a suggestion of color underneath faintly visible when a shirt falls open or a skirt flies...

Originally intended for young drivers, the surprisingly roomy Neon now sits in the driveways of nearly 175,000 value- minded consumers of all ages, proving that these days good things really do come in small packages...
