...founded suspicions of embezzlement - and he is also the masterless mind behind a plan to rob a suburban jewelry store - which just happens to be owned by his very own parents (Albert Finney and Rosemary Harris). Needless to say, this not exactly capering caper goes murderously awry. We quickly understand that nothing good is going to come out of this mess for Andy. He, of course, does not catch the drift toward disaster. Coolly smiling, eerily calm almost to the end, he keeps manufacturing work-arounds that, naturally, continue to make matters worse for him.

...absurd drinking game meant never to be played—that is unless you are 21 and happened to be a Scottish longshoreman with a death wish. In that case: God speed, read on, and drink up! TAKE A SHOT… 1. One shot if you can understand Johnny Depp. Cease all play immediately if you begin to sympathize with him. You’ve already had enough. 2.

...that comes with it—for her compelling scientific photography. The Crimson caught up with Frankel to hear about her experience as a cutting-edge photographer walking a thin line between science and art. The larger issue dealt with here is trying to get researchers and students to understand the importance of visually experiencing science and engineering.
