Last we heard from Sophia Bush and Ashlyn Harris, the couple were doing damage control over the genesis of their relationship, with Harris specifically insisting that she did not cheat on her now ex-wife, Ali Kreiger. “Sophia and Ashlyn insist they were just friends, but by all accounts, it was instant chemistry,” an anonymous source told Us Weekly in October. And five months feels like a respectable amount of time to let the dust settle on cheating suspicions before you officially go public with... Читать дальше...
In Stanley Kubrick’s A Clockwork Orange, the “Cat Woman” at the Health Farm—after Alex has broken into her house and they’re parrying, Alex swinging a giant phallus sculpture and she, a bust of Beethoven—yells ”I’ll teach you to break into real people’s houses!” This line has stuck in my mind for years. She’s saying that he doesn’t structurally count in society. And the film bears this out. Alex, despite his ultra-violent behavior and charismatic destructiveness, is the one used, not the user.

Tel Aviv [Israel], March 11 (ANI/TPS): Hamas is investigating reports on Monday that its number three man in Gaza, Marwan Issa, was killed in an Israeli airstrike during the weekend. The terror group has neither confirmed nor denied reports that Issa may have been killed while hiding in a building in the Nusseirat refugee camp in central Gaza that was hit by aircraft on either Saturday or Sunday.

When I first read Philip Roth’s transgressive novel Sabbath’s Theater, published in 1995, I wasn’t ready for the author’s profound insights on life. At 44, I placed it back on the shelf having labored through the final pages in which protagonist Mickey Sabbath takes stock of his life. Recently, I re-read it, drawn by a memory that those pages might contain guiding principles and wisdom. Almost 30 years older, I was ready for Roth’s harrowing and eroticized treatise on marriage, aging, and mortality. Читать дальше...
The anti-clock-change movement has really gathered some momentum. People squawk every year, particularly in the spring, when they lose an hour. Bills are introduced. Medical time specialists jack up the volume more each time: changing the clocks causes heart attacks, car accidents, or a terrible misalignment of circadian rhythms leading to depression and suicide. I doubt it, but if it's true, I ask how many lives could be saved with double standard time, so that it gets dark in DC at 3:00, and... Читать дальше...

Last month, Bobbie Wygant died. At Splice Today, we often post her interviews of actors, filmmakers, entertainers, and a few politicians. She was a star on local Dallas television, on air when Kennedy was assassinated. She had to improvise and carry on with interviews; it was the most significant day of her career, “the biggest thing that has happened to me, in all of my years on camera.” That’s from an interview posted in 2018, two years before Wygant became more widely known to the world. At the start of the pandemic in March 2020... Читать дальше...
