- For those of you who missed House Speaker Dennis Hastert's hamhanded smear of George Soros yesterday, here's Lloyd Grove's account in the New York Daily News: On "Fox News Sunday," the Illinois Republican insinuated that billionaire financier George Soros, who's funding an independent media campaign to dislodge President Bush, is getting his big bucks from shady sources. "You know, I don't know where George Soros gets his money. I don't know where -- if it comes overseas or from drug groups or where it comes from," Hastert mused. An astonished Chris Wallace asked: |

Nisha Kutty (Aug 31 2004 01:48 GMT) - Fashion photographer Nisha Kutty uses punchy colors, off-beat poses and funky lighting in her studio work. I like her bold, honest style on-location as well. Something terribly incongrous and wonderful about placing a model in a rustic setting. But its really those kinds of images that at once draw and... |

- Mike, I have to tell you that when the sweet wife saw the cardboard profile tacked onto the garage wall, she said, "what in the world is that?" She wasn't too excited about leaving the forced air heat and AC comfort of the motorhome, with the shower, toilet and seperate bedroom. However, after I sold it, I could hear her talking on the phone telling friends about "the old camping trailer that I was building". After a few weeks, she was heard saying, "Oh, you should see the cute little trailer that he has designed and built in the garage." See, everything works out after all. |

- Wizard People, Dear Reader is an unauthorized re-envisioning of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, by Brad Neely. To experience it, viewers need to get a copy of the first Harry Potter movie (which is known as Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone in Europe) and watch it with the sound off, replacing Neely's narration with the original soundtrack. After spreading rapidly among Neely's friends in Austin, Wizard People made its theatrical debut at the New York Underground Film Festival, to rapturous applause. |

- When I lived in a house full of girls, and in the college dorm, we would sometimes have what we called "a living room dance." Everyone would get out their favorite songs, and we would, quite unabashedly, dance around the room. One memorable time, I was able to lead a very smoothly choreographed group of back-up singers in Neil Sedaka's "Breaking Up is Hard to Do." It is still spoken of with reverence. I also once pulled off a perfectly timed leap from chair to floor with... |
