...longer just a hyper tom girl, Steffani has transformed herself into a one-woman rock enterprise. Her recent solo endeavors (well received guest appearances on tracks by Moby and Eve) have helped to make her more comfortable with her power and appeal. It's on the album's title track that we really hear how far she's come over the last few years. Her self-assured, laid-back persona takes over the song...
...spite of this sophisticated structure, Clowes keeps the focus on characterization. The various inhabitants include Random Wilder, the eccentric would-be poet laureate; Violet Van der Platz, the insecure, love-lorn teenage girl; Charles, the hyper-articulate and aware sixth-grader; and Mr. Ames, the mono-maniacal private investigator.

Scardigli socialized with her adviser and his wife at dinner parties at their home in Cambridge and while all three were doing summer research at the same time in Rome...
...students, usually hosts between 10 and 13 people on any given week. Classics concentrators are not the only ones waxing philosophical in the language of the philosophers. The table is open to all Latin-loving souls, whether they come to speak or just to soak up the hyper-intellectual aura. Adam S. Levine 05, a potential math concentrator and new table member, was surprised at the proficiency of the speakers. My first reaction was complete amazement at how well some of the people speak a language that has been dead for many centuries, he says. Sometimes the students accidentally place...
