...Dominating the exhibit foyer is a giant sculpture, Cosmos (2001), by contemporary French artist Boris Achour. Made of dyed resin, the cartoonish noggin with protruding nose rotates in space while humming a Brazilian lambada; the sound evokes an artist contentedly at work and fills the lively, labyrinthine exhibit with creative energy. Other artists prefer to turn their heads, well, on their heads. Sébastien Leclerc's 17th century engravings representing a range of emotions face off with an interactive portion of the exhibit in which children can assemble magnetic eyes, ears, noses and mouths on a wall to create...

Fortunately, Best Actress nominee Felicity Huffman left her Transamerica look at home, choosing a low-cut gown that proves she?s all woman...
...Done,’ and two minutes later, we’re smashing,” Howell says.“Smashing,” in this case, doesn’t refer to drinking games or car windows; it’s their code for playing the cartoonish Nintendo 64 multiplayer fighting classic “Super Smash Brothers.” It’s become a phenomenon in Weld Hall—they estimate that some 24 other students “smash” with them regularly and claim they play the game for at least...
