...first visits here, on holiday (not vacation!) were no less mythic than these imagined landscapes. I spent my time strolling around the secretive gardens of Westminster, pressing my camera against the iron of Buckingham Palace, throwing my lanky frame around an exorbitant mega-disco, spinning dumbly at the continuous vroom of oblivious Ferraris. A few years ago, staring despondently across Kensington Gardens through a late spring haze, I found myself looking into the far reaches of the old, overgrown empire—fertile Punjab farms, the plains of Kenya, the plantations of Virginia. The finished postcard canvas was cold...
Whether that time frame will hold for the four-person search committee headed by Director of Athletics Robert Scalise and Senior Associate Athletic Director Patricia Henry, however, remains to be seen. Following former head coach Ronn Tomassoni’s resignation on May 14, 1999, a quick selection was also forecast before multiple finalists withdrew from their names from contention, delaying Mazzoleni’s appointment to the post until July...

Vin Diesel plays Riddick with such inimitable heavy-lidded sangfroid, he ought to be in movies. Oh, that's right...
...June 1, 1937, the 26-year-old radio spieler strode into a $200-a-week contract at Warner Bros. His visible attributes: a golden smile; a long, lanky frame; a thick mane of dark hair, slicked back. But Reagan's most supple instrument was his voice. His Chicago Cubs play-by-play gig honed his ability to deliver dialogue with speed, assurance and conversational authority. Warner was a studio of fast-talking actors, but most of the men either sounded straight off the sidewalks of New York City (Humphrey Bogart, James Cagney, Pat O'Brien) or had acquired a well...
