...father had children by four women and that he abandoned each of them. Its odd statement that S. Ann Soetoro "decided not to follow" Obama's father back to Kenya neatly overlooks the fact that he was returning to Kenya (and his Kenyan wife and children) with an American woman whom he had met in Massachusetts after he left Ann and Barack in Hawaii and who became his third wife. Had you set out all the facts, you might have meaningfully addressed some important issues related to race and culture. But such a study would require a frank discussion...
...light goes on in a Harvard office building as a young man drives to work in his sports utility vehicle and a woman bites into her morning eggs and bacon. Across the world, villagers in a small town are hit by a hurricane of unusually high intensity—a storm that they were not expecting.

The pale-faced woman, spinning a fan like a tape recorder while being showered with kilo upon kilo of white powder, unites sex, drugs, money, and music in a single image. The geisha, not the Wu-Tang Clan, is the focal point of this video: she is the ideal of a high-rolling...
...today are considered anything but avant-garde, the exhibit manages to convey how the development of this genre was innovative in its time. “El Greco to Velázquez” fittingly ends with a painting by Velázquez. The painting, “Old Woman Cooking Eggs,” is the earliest dated work by the artist. Although Velázquez was only 19 when he made the painting, the woman’s worn features foreshadow the unforgiving and un-idealized portraits he would paint for members of the court under Philip...
