...kept quiet about their relatives' conditions struck a nerve with Maisel. He recently learned that his grandfather had been treated for severe depression with 12 rounds of electro-shock therapy before Maisel was born. "Here was this very important piece of my family history and it was almost forgotten within a generation or two," he says. To their credit, officials at the Oregon State Hospital had neatly numbered and catalogued each cremated patient. But for decades they kept the storeroom of canisters a secret from the outside world.

...Hotshot attorney Liv (Kate Hudson) and schoolteacher Emma (Anne Hathaway) have been best friends since childhood. Their shared greatest ambition is to get married at the Plaza Hotel in New York City. Each has a bland boyfriend, and both men propose within days of each other.

Since his first French Open victory in 2005, Nadal's more muscular game has consistently overcome the Swiss star on Nadal's favorite surface - clay. But in 2008, Nadal came out on top in four meetings, including an epic five-set Wimbledon final...
...Wire I don't subscribe to HBO, but after the umpteenth friend insisted that I just had to watch this police drama set in Baltimore, I bought the first season on DVD. I was hooked within the first 10 minutes, and now I'm on Season 2. In a world of predictable and hackneyed story lines, The Wire is fresh, nuanced and raw. You will find no black and white here, only a million shades of gray...
