Do-it-yourself musician Alejandro Escovedo is a survivor
WASHINGTON -- Alejandro Escovedo got a late start -- he didn't begin playing guitar until 24 and didn't start writing until he was in his '30s. After stints in the punk Nuns and pioneering cowpunk quartet Rank and File, Escovedo began to find his voice in the mid-'80s with shambolic rockers the True Believers, but even there he was not the central writer.

Crazy about Caravaggio: Renaissance artist gets trendy
LONDON -- Four hundred years after his death, Caravaggio -- brawling bad boy of Renaissance art -- is experiencing a renaissance of his own. Everyone from filmmakers to fashionistas, it seems, now claims the troubled genius as an inspiration.

Duran Duran Is Back Back
Much has happened in the years since Duran Duran ushered in the '80s and the so-called new romantic era with the group's pretty-boy dance rock.

IMAX: 'Space Station' is Kubrick without the evil
No one who has seen Stanley Kubrick's 1968 masterpiece "2001: A Space Odyssey" could ever forget the super-realism and convincing illusion that that film conveyed. Even today, it stands alone as THE science fiction, space travel champ -- its cryptic storyline aside.

New CDs: J.Lo, Jack Johnson live and learn
After fawning over former fiance Ben Affleck on 2002's "This is Me ... Then," Jennifer Lopez wisely keeps her love life out of the spotlight on her aptly titled fourth disc, "Rebirth." She only alludes to her secretive marriage to salsa king Marc Anthony on a few tracks, most prominently the breezy, Rodney Jerkins' penned-and-produced "I Got U," where she coos: "Sometimes real love can be not seen 'cause you're thinking what's right in front of you can't be the one for you."

Movie caps
Didn't Hollywood learn anything from "Mr. Nanny"? Cuddly, mischievous kids and over-muscled tough guys from the Sylvester Stallone Method School don't mix. Vin Diesel is not funny in so many ways in the family action comedy "The Pacifier," a vain attempt to broaden his prospects beyond the bust-'em-up thriller, a genre in which he's already grown stale.

People: Kirstie Alley talks about 'Fat Actress' series
"Last year I did a movie and when I saw it I went, 'Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God.' Now it can't really be camouflaged. Now it's not even a matter of wearing the right clothes. That's when I said, 'Uh oh.' " -- Kirstie Alley, star of the reality-comedy series "Fat Actress."

'Cursed' a cheesy, afflicted werewolf flick
Werewolves of Hollywood. The concept should work. But despite the good production pedigree of the "Scream" team, "Cursed" is a fangless task. As horror films go, this substandard effort is cheesier than grandma's lasagna.

Review: Hard to 'Be Cool' in this recycled comedy
Let's count the things in "Be Cool" that are not cool: lifting actors, sets and situations from "Pulp Fiction"; rich, white people showing how down they are by bopping their heads to hip-hop; an extended performance by Aerosmith.

For correct doneness, cook eggs dishes according to these guidelines.

Perspective: It's time to hear both sides of the issue
While the media have been focusing on the flap at Harvard growing out of its president's statement about the reasons for the under-representation of women in the sciences, a much worse and more revealing scandal has unfolded at the University of Seattle, where a student mob prevented a military recruiter from meeting with those students who wanted to meet with him.

Letter: Record censors my voice
Editor: For all who believe that the uncensored expression of diverse and contrasting ideas is a fundamental element of a healthy democratic society, The Record's decision to limit local voices to a monthly 300-word letter to the editor, when concerned with anything other than local issues, is a dereliction of its constitutional mandate.

Letter: Flagler play 'superb'
Editor: Congratulations to all the students who were involved in the play, "Our American Cousin," at Flagler Auditorium. It was superb in every way. The tribute to President Lincoln was especially moving as this was the play President Lincoln was watching on the evening he was assassinated.

Democrats call for President Bush to use his conservative majorities to find common solutions to perennial problems that might find resonance with Americans tired of partisan bickering. There are plenty of places to start on a variety of different issues.

Letter: Letter writer misses the mark on Social Security
Editor: A recent letter on Social Security is a scary reminder of the pervasive attitude among many Americans that the role of government is to secure the welfare of everyone by redistributing wealth. While the U.S. is attempting to promote and expand freedom and democracy around the world, internal forces of this kind want to convert our own country to socialism. It sounds like the writer Marxism.
