...wants Mike to know we appreciate him, that he still reigns, at least in our memory. The truth, though, is that we don't want him to come back because even for Michael Jordan, this would be an act of hubris so monumental as to make his trademark confidence twist into conceit. We don't want him back on the court because no one likes a show-off. The stumbling? That will...
...Hitchcock wasn't all about seriousness and suspense. His trademark, a cameo in each of his films, shows the director's admiration of a good joke. His role as a casual passerby - as a man reading a newspaper or a passenger on a train - recurs 32 times in one room of the exhibition.

But later that afternoon, aides found Arroyo praying, alone, in the chapel of MalacaNang...
...before the bathroom mirror who wouldn't want what Shu Qi has. On any day, at any hour, almost anywhere in Asia, whether you're window-shopping, daydreaming in a bus or cruising the Internet, you're likely to see her face and the luxurious mouth that is its trademark. She's the poster girl for French fashion house Lanvin, beer babe for San Miguel and pitchwoman for Lux Soap, Coca-Cola (Japan) and Red Earth cosmetics (O.K., that contract just lapsed).
