...Middle East is ultimately the only way to prevent endless generations of young Arab men from finding fulfillment by crashing airplanes into buildings filled with infidels. Europe has a similar interest, having suffered, with the train bombings in Madrid, the kind of fanatic nihilism that visited the Twin Towers...
...times, people would sit in a cave around a fire and, says Lepage, "one day, a guy stands up, and the shadow behind him on the wall is the first form of using technology to tell a story." That notion inspires one of Ką's loveliest moments: the male twin and his court jester make shadow puppets--a rabbit, a dog, a bird--on the wall. Simple magic.

(The exceptions, like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Joan of Arcadia and HBO's Carnivale, have been cult hits or cable shows.) Viewers, meanwhile, gravitated...
Penn-Princeton weekend, however, has almost always proved anticlimactic for those who pack Lavietes Pavilion to watch the Crimson play. The annual twin juggernauts of the Ivy League have become accustomed to leaving Cambridge with a victory. You have to go back to the 1986-87 campaign to find the last time the Crimson captured both home games against the two, and not since 1990 has Harvard beaten both in the same year...
