  1. Hosting a heroes reunion

    Some 70 years ago, it was an air base without airplanes or even a runway.
    Some 70 years ago, it was an air base without airplanes or even a runway. Rather, the Santa Ana Army Air Base, or SAAAB, served as a nearly 1,300-acre basic training camp where thousands upon thousands of young Americans prepared for war. Starting...

  3. Again, Rep. Schiff urges Obama to officially recognize Armenian genocide

    Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Burbank) on Wednesday once again called on President Obama to officially recognize the Armenian genocide of 1915 – a request that for years has gone unfulfilled amid political pressure from a key NATO ally, Turkey.

  5. Thomas Demand: A journey in great demand

    John Lautner believed that "architecture should be really odd." To this end the midcentury American architect dotted Southern California with a concrete, glass and copper volcano for Bob Hope's second home, a dwelling that looks like a UFO perched on a lush hillside, and plenty of other equally iconoclastic and dramatic residential gestures.

  7. He's got Armenia under his skin, and we get a guidebook

    By some measures, Matthew Karanian was a Connecticut Yankee: a 34-year-old litigator in Hartford, American-born and bred. But he had a wild idea. So he took a summer off, headed for the rustic land of his ancestors, and soon found that Armenia was rearranging his life.

  9. News Of The Weird: Undocumented Immigrant Gains Safe Harbor Thanks to Xbox Live Records

    Undocumented immigrant Jose Munoz, 25, believed himself an ideal candidate for President Obama's 2012 safe-harbor initiative for illegal-entry children, in that he had been brought to the U.S. by his undocumented parents before age 16, had no criminal record and had graduated from high school (with honors, even). Since then, however, he had remained at home in Sheboygan, Wis., assisting his family, doing odd jobs and, admittedly, just playing video games and “vegging.” Living “in the shadows,” he found it almost impossible to prove the final legal criterion: that he had lived continuously in the U.S. since graduation (using government records, payroll sheets, utility bills, etc.). After initial failures to convince immigration officials, reported the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel in March, Munoz's lawyer succeeded — by submitting Munoz's Xbox Live records, documenting that his computer's Wisconsin location had been accessing video games, day after day, for years.

  13. When 'Negro' was in vogue

    The Census Bureau announced last week that it is dropping the use of the term "Negro" to describe black Americans in its population surveys. I suspect few will mourn the word's passing.

  19. Wordplay and secret missions to Dublin at Strawdog

    Just as Irish novelist Flann O'Brien out-Joyced James Joyce with his mind-bending masterwork "At Swim-Two-Birds," Irish playwright Arthur Riordan takes the sort of too-true-to-be-real story that is catnip to Tom Stoppard and proceeds to fold, spindle, and verbally mutilate it into a high-spirited &mdash; if occasionally aggravating &mdash; pastiche in "Improbable Frequency," now in its local premiere with Strawdog Theatre Company.

  21. From The Era Of 'Downton Abbey': 'Edwardian Opulence' At Yale

    During the Edwardian era in England, one of the most popular status symbols among rich women was an ostrich-feather fan. To make one, manufacturers had to run dozens of dull, drab, gray feathers through a lengthy cleansing and fluffing process to make them perfectly clean, light and floaty. They were bound together with a handle made from the shells of hundreds of tortoises. That handle was sometimes encrusted with diamonds from one of Africa's British-owned diamond mines.

  23. Review: A muse for 'Renoir,' father and son

    "Renoir" is a lush, involving film that deals not with one Renoir but two, as well as the strong-minded woman who was a key player in both their lives.
