Etruscan, Greek, Chinese, and Islamic vases find a place among the vast collection of the Harvard Art Museum alongside the work of European masters like Rembrandt, Van Gogh, and Picasso. Only a few blocks away, Pueblo ceramics from the American Southwest and pottery from the Moche civilization in Peru reside in the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology. While the few blocks that separate the museums are rather small, the assumptions motivating the division between art objects and ethnographic objects are significant. Recently, though, steps have been taken both on and off campus to complicate the division between fine...
...hand, pot belly swaying in gentle tandem with the ice clinking against the side of the glass, and Crazy Heart even opens at a bowling alley. But whereas bowling was the Dude's favorite sport and main occupation, for Bad, finding himself performing at a bowling alley in Pueblo, Colo., is a misery. He's a legend in the country-and-western scene, but he's 57, broke and no longer even afforded the dignity of running a tab at the bars where he plays ("I'm ..." he starts to tell an unsympathetic bartender waiting for her $4.75, then gestures...
Before New Mexico meets its future, however, it has to reckon with its past. Human habitation here dates back 12,000 years; in the 16th century the storied Camino Real - a 1,500-mile trade route from Mexico City to San Juan Pueblo, near Santa Fe - passed through the spaceport site.

The package has a camp-for-grown-ups feel, with Collins and her guides mixing margaritas on the ranch porch, and a rodeo (guests can take part) and an awards ceremony at the end of your stay. The stables are partnered with the Hyatt Regency Tamaya Resort & Spa, where you get lodging...
...Internet and e-mail ruined everything! When I used to travel [before the days of e-mail], I'd be in Berlin or Paris or some pueblo in Spain, and I'd leave with someone's address scribbled on the back of a paperback book or on a pack of rolling papers. It was the polite thing to do, though no one was really expected to sit down and write a letter. Now you get an e-mail the next day saying, "I saw your tour schedule on your website. Put me on the guest list tonight!" Or worse...
