Some councillors can trace their longevity in the council to specific neighborhoods--Timothy J. Toomey in East Cambridge, for example, or Henrietta Davis in Cambridgeport or Kathleen L. Born in Porter Square...
...Crimson upperclassmen had a much tougher time. Green took an early lead against top player Trace Fielding, but ended up losing 2-6, 6-4, 6-1. Lee also lost in three, 3-6, 6-3, 3-2 to Petr Koula. Rounding out the singles, the Horned Frogs' Jimmy Haney defeated Styperek 6-0, 6-4. Green and Styperek lost their doubles, 8-3, to Fielding and Koula, while the team of Rich and Barker, which was promoted to No. 2, also was beaten. The only Harvard doubles victory came from the brand-new combination of Lee and Oli Choo...
...plot is not black and white; despite his ordeals, Peiyuan is more self-assured, more confident of his Chinese identity. His brother Peiji, the eminent achiever, broadcasts insecurity and a trace of guilt at the good life he has enjoyed. Peiyuan is resigned to China's failings. Peiji has indigestion from Taiwan's success. Tell their family story, and you also start to tell the story of China over the past 50 years, with all its contradictions, betrayals and unburied ghosts. Confucian thought has always seen the family as a model of the state. Obedience to the father...
...melodramatic Berlin actress who claimed in the 1930s to be Einstein's daughter. Zackheim's final conclusions, however--based on little more than inferences from a cryptic 1903 letter from Einstein to Mileva ("I am very sorry about what has happened to Lieserl. Scarlet fever often leaves some lasting trace behind") and vague comments about idiocy in the family by an elderly Maric descendant in the Serbian town of Kac--remain conjectural at best...
...acting but for his directing--of music videos, for the Beastie Boys and Bjork, among others. Jonze's performance is one of the highlights of the film. He portrays Vig with a sort of unstudied exuberance, post-adolescent can-do hyperactivity, and is earnestly naive without a trace of self-parody. He delivers lines that may be almost trite in their ignorance--for example, when he asks an Iraqi rebel leader, "So, you guys think all Americans are Satan, right?" without betraying anything more improprietary than curiousity. His acting carries some of the less compelling scenes out of their self...
