...Poon has announced the completion of its second parody novel, Nightlight: A Parody, a satiric take on the oh-so-popular Twilight phenomenon. The book follows Belle Goose, a young girl who becomes convinced the new boy in school is a vampire and her soulmate, despite evidence that he thinks girls are "repulsive." The Edward character from the real novel goes by Edwart in this version, a name which the book itself informs us is "Much funnier than Edward...
...Luigi Garbini, 41, priest, author and composer I would start at twilight with a scotch on the rocks in the top-floor bar of La Rinascente department store, tel: (39-02) 88521. With its curving glass walls and terrace, it's like being on the deck of a glamorous ship; you can almost reach out and touch the statues that crown the roof of the Duomo.

The kids on my trip were nice, fun, and (unlike me) made the best of their experience. Nevertheless, I remain convinced that there are some people, like myself, who had an awful experience...
...will replace him in January, making Brian Williams of NBC's Nightly News the lone male anchor on the Big Three evening broadcasts. Gibson, who joined ABC as a Capitol Hill reporter in 1975, never expected to preside over the network's flagship news program. He was nearing the twilight of his career when a chain of unexpected developments--Peter Jennings' death in 2005, the head injury Bob Woodruff sustained in Iraq in 2006 and Elizabeth Vargas' pregnancy later that year--thrust him into the anchor's chair. He acquitted himself well, landing the first major TV interview with vice...
