Through her ambiguous perspective‚ Ní Chuilleanáin creates and upholds secrets for her readers to resolve. There are several aspects of Ní Chuilleanáin’s poetry that appeal to me: the themes she discusses‚ her use of poetic techniques‚ her ambiguity‚ writing about her personal experience and her honesty. As a reader‚ I found her work very challenging‚ but ultimately rewarding. What I find most

A few months ago‚ thanks to the vivacious Tammy Gillis‚ the accomplished actor Jim Thorburn was brought to my attention (they are married‚ in case you were unaware). While his name was somewhat unknown to me‚ his talent and works included some of my classic and current favorites. As I have been faithfully following his career all this time now‚ I was ecstatic to promote his upcoming film‚ Engaging Father Christmas‚ and he was kind enough to chat with me briefly about his role in this upcoming film

But the brand has become too common to be cool. "I call it the Izod syndrome‚" says John Horan‚ publisher of Sporting Goods Intelligence‚ referring to the once-hip golf shirt. "Nike is everywhere."

What is the human story? Naturally‚ as a student of history‚ I turned to histories like Civilization by Niall Ferguson for an eloquent yet ultimately asymmetric analysis of the past 500 years of human creation. In it‚ Ferguson places the European Enlightenment as the most consequential event in the human story — particularly‚ the French philosophes that professed a need for separation between church and state that launched the Industrial Revolution. This compelling linear narrative‚ of the most

One freezing morning in Wellborn Middle School‚ France. A 13-year-old dark blonde haired‚ gray eyed boy named Diego Sartorius. Sat in his four-legged chair in Science class.

She also had an awkward relationship with Elizabeth‚ but now they’re good friends. What’s it like for you as an actress to be able to portray that arc and her journey? Andrea: That’s such a good question
