  1. Joseph Farrell dies at 76; introduced market testing to Hollywood

    As founder, chairman and chief executive of National Research Group Inc. from 1978 to 2003, movie market researcher <a href="http://lat.ms/tdUqJm">Joseph Farrell</a> introduced the concept of market testing to Hollywood, originating now-standard industry practices such as audience tracking surveys, focus-group preview screenings and demographic analysis of moviegoers.

  3. 'The Vietnam War: A Graphic History' by Dwight Jon Zimmerman and Wayne Vansant

    The Vietnam War still drags at us. Unlike the Civil War or World War II, we haven't figured out how to catalog it and put it away. It eludes definition; historians can't even make up their minds when it began and ended.

There are fast "Rings," profound "Rings," Eurotrash "Rings," even your father's "Ring," in an old-fashioned look from the Metropolitan Opera under James Levine (on Deutsche Grammophon DVDs). Here are a few of the more adventurous "Rings," starting with the CDs.

  9. Heeeeee's Back!

  11. For Danny Boyle and company, much more than '127 Hours' of toil
