...with signature martinis. Almost everywhere there are also traces of the hippie-Boho culture that settled in before the 1960s and does what it can to keep its flag flying. And for nearly 150 years one of the neighborhood's anchors has been the sturdy main building of the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art, a college where presidents from Abraham Lincoln to Barack Obama have come to speak...

...building into those streets and get it to speak to so many different contexts. The ideal combination of grit and elegance, muscle and intellect is hard to arrive at, and over the last four or five years some local projects by name architects have gotten it wrong. But Cooper Union's new academic building, which opened this fall, is a genuine triumph, a canny exercise in architectural multilingualism. (See pictures of Thom Mayne's 41 Cooper Square...

...watching porn on the couch, with nothing but a towel tossed over his paunch. She's embarrassed, but more important, he's mortified, and for the first time, as he attempts to gather the shambles of his dignity around him, we see that Bad is not beyond caring. Cooper nicely juxtaposes this with a later scene of Bad's seducing Jean when she's on her way out a different door, and he's wonderfully courtly and engaged. (Unfortunately, I didn't know exactly what to make of Jean. There's something vaguely untrustworthy about the character, which may have...
