They changed the tables in Annenberg last week. The new arrangement dismayed me greatly. Instead of long rows of tables, the first-year dining hall transformed for a few days to cute sets of two tables pushed together as squares. I'll admit that the setup did lend Annenberg some appropriate ambience for the special brunch to match the solemnity of its busts and stained-glass windows. But the big squares lacked a certain functionality...
There is one group holding out hope for a way out of impeachment: the mostly moderate Republicans led by New York's King. The dwindling band has drafted a resolution of censure that would require the President to pay a fine and publicly admit wrongdoing.

(Its name is derived from the Israelites' reaction and may best be translated, "Whatta?") Scripture describes manna as "a fine and flaky substance, as fine as frost on the ground," which falls with the dew but melts when the sun grows hot. In June...

You also have to admire the creepy arrogance of Schwartzman's performance. We can see that it covers loneliness, social ineptitude, even a certain amount of duplicity. His father is not the neurosurgeon he claims he is, but a barber. Yet the actor never once sues us for sympathy, and it comes as a nice surprise when we find...
...proposal is this: that actors, staff, and crew--male or female, queer or straight--currently involved in this year's Pudding production, have a moral and ethical obligation to walk out of production until an agreement to admit actresses to next year's production is reached. To say that acting by females will lessen the quality of HPT 152 is an insult to the talent of our actresses as well as to the inventiveness and creativity of the Pudding production staff...
