  1. Some reasons to visit Philadelphia now

    W.C. Fields' gravestone doesn't really read, "On the whole, I'd rather be in Philadelphia." But the comic actor loved to poke fun at his native city. When I was a student in Philly way back when, I did too. There wasn't much to do. It seemed like every corner in Center City had a travel agency or a bridal shop or a restaurant: People wanted to escape. Sure, there were some good restaurants, a couple of museums, the Liberty Bell, some beautiful houses, and Bassett's Ice Cream at the Reading Terminal Market, but not much else.

  5. In art as in music, John Cage reveals the world within

    John Cage was a leading avant-garde composer for 40 years, but he also made spare watercolors, drawings and prints, plus the occasional painting, especially in the final decades of his life. Infused with the same spirit that characterizes his work as a musician, Cage's pale color washes, Zen circles and delicate abstract markings are often lovely.

  7. A restaurant for every voting bloc

    First, there is the confounding name: MB Financial Park, which sounds like the headquarters for a midlevel insurance firm but is an entertainment complex where one can go from restaurant to comedy club to bowling alley without moving the car.

  9. Thoughts from Dr. Joe: Following writing's three rules

    Brother Felix was a cross between Attila the Hun and Saint Francis of Assisi. I was his Achilles' heel. He taught honors English at Mount Saint Michael. By the end of my freshman year I could write the heck out of anything. Brother insisted I keep a...

  11. Clarice Lispector: Four novels form a picture of Brazil novelist

    For a handful of people, Clarice Lispector's "A Breath of Life" being published in English for the first time is very good news. Sadly, that handful is fairly small.

  13. 'James Joyce: A New Biography' by Gordon Bowker: An excerpt

    <em>So</em><em> you're an admirer of James Joyce's "Ulysses"? Well, thank Trieste for that book. Why? Gordon Bowker's </em><em>"James Joyce: A New Biography" (Farrar, Straus &amp; Giroux: 608 pp., $35) shows readers how living in that seaport city in northeastern Italy helped rekindle Joyce's enthusiasm after the lackluster reception of </em><em>"Dubliners" and his </em><em>uncertainty over what readers would think of "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man." The city not only gave him and wife Nora an income, it gave Joyce, as a teacher, an exceptional pupil: the writer Ettore Schmitz, known by the pen name </em><em>Italo Svevo.</em><em> </em>

  19. Beer suits golf to a T

    Perusing the Hagerstown City Council briefs, I just discovered that &mdash;although it might change in the near future &mdash; they currently don&rsquo;t sell beer at the city golf course.

  21. Daum: Speaking down to Americans

    Lest you think the bullying and foot-stomping of Congress most resemble a tantrum-prone bunch of second-graders, think again. Data compiled by the Sunlight Foundation, a nonpartisan group focused on greater transparency in Washington, has shown that today's congressional "dialogue" is actually on a par with a 10th-grader's verbal prowess.
