...aren’t used to this. Just a year ago, Owl members used to stand on their stoop on some weekend nights, calling out to women who sauntered past, trying to convince a few perfumed bodies to spend time in their club. Those who walked down the dark wood staircase at the A.D. during parties peered down on a sea of women clutching plastic cups in their hands, their numbers dwarfing the number of A.D. men. Even at clubs like the Fly and Phoenix, a well-orchestrated beg and a carefully-crafted name drop could earn most dolled...

Benigni used to be applauded as a scourge of the Italian establishment, but many of his fans are now starting to wonder whether the impish director isn't forgetting out of what wood he was carved. Once an arch tormentor of Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi - who has ofttimes been satirized with a nose of Pinocchian proportions - Benigni now says that whatever his failings as a statesman, Berlusconi is "a bloody good businessman." Could this have anything to do with the fact that Berlusconi...

...have not actually been to France, but I have seen Amelie and been to Disney World. These two experiences, I think, amount to all I need to judge Metro’s authenticity. The mosaic-tiled floor, big windows and lots of light wood are charming and airy, a contrast to the more moody Cottonwood Café that used to occupy the space. Deep red pleather booths and chairs are cute, but the Art Deco lighting (in addition to Art Deco everything) is too new-looking and the “tin” ceiling and the huge mirrors...

This method is widely embraced (and cheaper) in Britain, where some 150 burial grounds offer plain wood coffins, cardboard boxes or a "lovely woollen shroud" in which to bury loved ones in a nature reserve. The U.S. has been slow to follow, but Memorial Ecosystems in South Carolina has buried 18 people on its 33-acre site since 1998 and has presold about 100 plots.
