...KLEIN'S "A TALE OF TWO ROMNEYS": It sounds like Mitt Romney has us all confused as to who the real Mitt is [Jan. 14]. As a Democrat-leaning independent, I was willing to overlook Romney's Republican ways because of what he accomplished in private business, with the Utah Olympics and as governor of Massachusetts. But his seesawing pegs him as a politician desperate for any and all votes. He's trying to be what most marketers learned long ago doesn't exist: a product that satisfies all the people all the time.

...taking cocaine. Some accounts suggested that the video showed the royal engaged in a gay sex act with the aide; in tamer versions, the aide was said to have made claims about a gay sex act with the royal.

The Friday night it opened was not about how much money it made, it was about what the reviews were, whether...
...original." The new wing was never intended to bear the bold signature of a Pei pyramid or a Gehry curve; it manages instead to be quietly beautiful. An exquisitely crafted foyer of cedar, textured granite and brushed bronze is lined on one side with floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the brick rear of the original museum. Galleries start underground and work their way up around the broad shaft of natural light that streams through Moneo's glass lantern. At the top comes the delicious surprise: a gorgeously restored Baroque cloister - dismantled from the neighboring San Jerónimo church...
