...recent ancestor in the antique-Greek action genre - so the hacked-off-arm opportunities are also limited.) But at least this transfer to 3-D doesn't substantially darken the original image, as Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland did. More important, you don't need glasses or a bank loan to enjoy Clash. It's very watchable in 2-D. I realized that when I removed my goggles during some scenes and found nothing changed: no double vision, no change in brightness.

The Republican committee in the Senate that finances campaigns had $12.9 million on hand, compared with $14.3 million available to Senate Democrats. And the Republican National Committee trailed the Democratic National Committee, $9.5 million to $10.7 million. The war-chest...

Combining that with the muzzling that occurs in the press with regard to accurate reporting from the region and the prejudices that haunt the attitudes and language of the media, the American public is largely unaware of the human realities of the conflict...
...government, DMV, and Harvard, this is how my name will always be. To Amex, Bank of America, and now The Crimson, I am H. Zane B. Wruble. To my distant relatives in Ireland, I imagine I am still Henrietta. To my friends I will always be Zane. I have even tried on a couple of other names for size before. At French camp when I was 16, I was “Zazie.” Zazie was the outgoing goofball I never had the courage to be in high school. In China, I was Wu Hanrui: traveler, socialite...
