...authority to do it. You might say he was upstaged by Joan Collins' brunette treachery in Dynasty, and by Farrah Fawcett's blond mop in Charlie's Angels. But Forsythe was like an easy chair one takes for granted until it's put in the attic. In three words, he wore well. (See the best movies of the decade...

Over the next three decades, the actor anchored three other sitcoms: in 1965 The John Forsythe Show (an Air Force major inherits a San Francisco girls' school), in 1969 To Rome With Love (a widower moves his three daughters from Iowa to the Eternal City for a teaching position) and, as he was nearing 75, The Powers That Be, about an inept U.S. Senator whose wife (Holland Taylor) runs the show.

"It's a slow process," he says, noting that while there is documentation on rising sea levels, there are little data on such factors as methane release from melting permafrost, the impacts of ocean acidification, and the timing of the potential disintegration of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. "We as social scientists can't [offer...

...never seen two elections that were alike," says Charlie Cook, editor of the nonpartisan Cook Political Report. For all the similarities between 1994 and 2010, there are important differences.
