...rhyme-loving father, Dr. Zeus (Walter B. Klyce ’10), to help the town and earn for himself full divinity. Hugh’s uncle, King of the Underworld and Lord of the Hotpants, Hades (Tom R. Compton ’09), schemes against his nerdy nephew, arranging a competition between Hugh and a really, really ridiculously good-looking statue, resurrected for the purpose. The literal deification of the dork and the lovelorn trials of geeky girl and resident accountant Roseanne (Derek S. Mueller ’10) make for a show that joins frat boys and math...
...much older - at around age 20 instead of the traditional 14 - he said. Village resident Pilar Martinez echoes his defense of Triqui traditional marriage, saying the payment puts worth on the matrimony. "It is a mark of commitment," she says smiling as she plays with her lively daughter and nephew. Martinez married at age 21 after meeting her husband at school.

...Godfather Drosselmeier takes on an entirely new appeal. As danced by Yury Yanowsky, he is a campy Latin Byron—a sexy sorcerer with a dark purple cape and matching tights to boot.

More drastically, they have begun altering Nadal's trademark forehand. In Paris, I spent two hours watching Nadal practice forehands with a follow-through that came around his body in the traditional manner rather than whiplashing behind his head. Toni barked complaints if his pupil...
When George H.W. Bush was at Andover, his roommate was the nephew of a man with the curious name of George de Mohrenschildt; in later years, Bush and De Mohrenschildt fraternized in Dallas. In 1962, De Mohrenschildt also befriended a troubled young man named Lee Harvey Oswald. It's just one of dozens of connections that the prodigiously industrious investigative journalist Russ Baker has drawn between President No. 41 and the assassination of President No. 35. He also connects the dots between the Bushes and Watergate, which he farfetchedly describes not as a ham-handed act of political espionage...
