...have also employed similar electricity-draining methods to stay warm. Another Leverett House resident, Matthew Bradley '97 and his roommates "turned on all the lights" and playfully "warmed [their] hands on the light bulbs" while others kept their computers running 24 hours a day to generate life-sustaining heat. Talia Milgram-Ellcott '98 of Matthews Hall admitted to "running the hand heaters in the bathroom on full blast" to warm the air in the bathroom and make showers friendlier...

Omar did not see his wife again for two days, and in his arms was their seven-month-old daughter, weakly sobbing for her mother's milk. Other nursing mothers saved the little girl's life by giving...
...long last, a long look back in The Godfather Part III, a meandering but finally quite affecting climax to the saga. It is 1979, and Michael Corleone (Al Pacino), the sleek, ruthless don, has become a legitimate billionaire. His sister Connie (Talia Shire) has dredged herself out of a sullen stupor to become his feisty adviser. His ex-wife Kay (Diane Keaton) has remarried.
