  2. Big Read, big issues: Tim O'Brien to discuss 'The Things They Carried' in Miami

    When Tim O’Brien’s collection of Vietnam War stories, “The Things They Carried,” was published in 1990, a New York Times reviewer placed it “high up on the list of best fiction about any war.” Which must have pleased O’Brien, who told an NPR panel on the book's 20th anniversary that he hoped it would continue to resonate not just with his fellow Vietnam vets but high school students, the true target of the book.

  4. Black Guerrilla prison story putting national media pressure on O'Malley

    Reviewing national media coverage of the Black Guerrilla Family's virtual takeover of the Baltimore City Detention Center, it's impossible not to feel the pressure mounting on Gov. Martin O'Malley who is expected to return this week from a trip to the Middle East.

  5. Harry Shearer dropped by KCRW-FM after a 30-year run

    Long before he began voicing Mr. Burns, Smithers and numerous other characters on “The Simpsons,” Harry Shearer was host of “Le Show,” a Sunday morning satirical program on KCRW-FM (89.9). Now, after 30 years, he’s been dropped from the lineup at the Santa Monica-based public radio station.

  6. 32nd Annual Fine Art & Flowers at the Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford

    As a concept, the Wadsworth Atheneum's annual spring fundraiser, Fine Art & Flowers, has a great thing going: invite area florists, garden clubs and designers to create actual floral representations based on the museum's extensive collection. In practice, it's also fun; there's a farm-to-table dinner on April 19, hosted by NPR's Faith Middleton and New York floral designer Sarah Ryhanen; a garden talk by Mar Jennings in Aetna Theater on April 20; and a jazz brunch in the museum cafe on April 21. Throughout the weekend, you can take a docent-led tour of the Atheneum's stunning Caravaggio exhibit.

  7. Rebel Wilson "exposed," Turbo Tax day fail and the NRA's Sprint Cup sponsorship turns deadly for one NASCAR fan

    Rebel Wilson shines, confuses and titillates while hosting last night's 2013 MTV Movie Awards as tax-paying procrastinators struggled to submit their returns on a temporarily floundering TurboTax online. In gun control news, a sadly ironic turn of events took place at the first 500 Sprint Cup race sponsored by the NRA as a NASCAR fan shot himself in the head after an apparent argument with a fellow racing fan.

  9. Remember when nostalgia died?

    I cannot be the only one who gets a little jolt anytime he encounters someone waxing nostalgic over the 1980s or even the 1990s. We just lived the '80s and '90s, like, a moment ago, didn't we? They seem so recent that many of us are working harder at...
