The Bar Building is the home of Beavis and Butt-Head, the Ambiguously Gay Duo, Harvey Birdman," said J.J. Sedelmaier, the producer and director who brought those made-for-television cartoon characters and numerous others to life at J.J. Sedelmaier Productions Inc., the animation studio that has called the Bar Building home since 1990. It's a name and a studio better known to Manhattan television comedy insiders - the hip folks at "30 Rock," "Saturday Night Live," "The Colbert Report" and "The Daily Show" - than to suburban White Plains. In the Bar Building before Sedelmaier's arrival, the lawyer-heavy list of tenants included Carl Machover, a renowned computer industry pioneer who did the first computer-animated commercial for Xerox Corp. in the '70s.

LOS ANGELES -- Barbara Billingsley, who gained supermom status for her gentle portrayal of June Cleaver, the warm, supportive mother of a pair of precocious boys in "Leave it to Beaver," died Saturday. She was 94. Billingsley, who had suffered from a rheumatoid disease, died at her home in Santa Monica, said family spokeswoman Judy Twersky.
When the show debuted in 1957, Jerry Mathers, who played Beaver, was 9, and Tony Dow, who portrayed Wally, was 12. Billingsley's character, the perfect stay-at-home 1950s mom, was always there to gently but firmly nurture both through the ups and downs of childhood.

If ever a movie cried out for the full IMAX experience, it would seem to be "Tron: Legacy," Disney's visually arresting expansion of the 1982 cult classic about a programmer who gets sucked into an electronic netherworld. Three theaters in the region - Penn Cinema in Lititz, the R/C Theatre in Reading and the Whitaker Center in Harrisburg - will show the film in IMAX. For showtimes and a review of the film, turn to Page E4.
In his essay "SantaLand Diaries," writer and humorist David Sedaris describes his adventures working as a Christmas elf at Macy's. (He does sort of look the part, doesn't he?) Ephrata Performing Arts Center will perform a staged reading of the piece at 8 p.m. Monday, Dec. 20. For ticket information, call 733-7966.

Though they cannot supplant nor replace other methodologies, films can possibly raise new questions, provide different perspectives, and reveal unique ways of knowing about seminal subject, at least by comparison to the standard fare of academic analysis. Each one, "ethics" and "leadership," draw upon substantially different intellectual literatures, scholarly methodologies, traditional assumptions, and disciplinary perspectives. Film, often far better than social science literature, may provide a more "holistic account" of not only individual lives, but entire situations where ethical leadership is practiced. Finally, ethical leadership includes the use of symbols. Symbols abound throughout, thus giving the story meaning, depth, and power beyond simply "a typical feel-good" movie. List...
