Paramount's DVD features a sumptuous letterboxed (at 2:35:1) ratio of cinematographer Claude Renoir's painterly compositions, as well as a Dolby Digital 5.1 surround stereo treatment of Antonio Carlos Jobim's thunderous score. Alas, no trailers or TV spots, although despite the PG rating that adorns the disc package, it seems to be the complete R-rated release, with a longer running time than is usually found in movie-book sources and even an intermission card at the 114-minute mark. was allegedly trimmed to a PG prior to its ABC-TV broadcast in late 1972; close to 20 minutes were scissored for boob-tube consumption that rendered many scenes incoherent, such as [Charles Aznavour]'s secret S&M pad. Yet I recall New York Times ads from earlier that year concerning a do...

Offset white snow with some color. Hitting the slopes wearing green, blue, red -- and even orange -- will get you noticed as you ski downhill or snowshoe across an open field.
BWINDI IMPENETRABLE NATIONAL PARK, Uganda - Bill Vaughn and his wife, Judy, have toured more than 60 countries, many after his retirement from State Farm Insurance Cos. in the 1990s. At 77, you'd think Vaughn might slow down. Think again.

A Thanksgiving to please traditionalists and adventurers From brining to grilling, guide takes cooks under its wing
Captain Christopher Newport and his 100 or so adventurers studied the banks of the James River from their wooden ships - Susan Constant, Godspeed and Discovery. The land looked both inviting and hostile. It was. On May 14, 1607, after a 4 1/2-month voyage from England, they landed and began to set up their colony. Almost immediately the colonists were under attack by Virginian Indians. They also had to deal with an unfamiliar climate, a brackish water supply, lack of food and a drought. They failed in two key objectives, finding gold and a water route to the Orient, but they established the first permanent English settlement in America. Historic Jamestowne is the original site of the 1607 landing. Visitors can witness archaeology in action, take a walking tour with a ranger or living-hi...
A solitary grave sits near the top of the 10,000-foot pass, a simple monument with a yawning view of the bleached and scarred Atacama valley so loved by British geologist Sydney Hollingworth that he asked to be buried here. It's easy to believe that this tawny bowl belongs to the driest desert on earth. But as you drive farther along the tarmac ribbon, deeper into folds and flats and beneath the haze from a smoking volcano, you find ... water.
The mountain bike race we had traveled 500 miles to experience turned out to be more or less a footnote in the grander scheme of our entire adventure. While my buddies and I are not typically given to making excuses, I will suggest that a fair share of the blame for the stunning mediocrity of our collective performance had less to do with fitness than topography. Spoiled by the twin marvels of Vulture's Knob and the Mohican State Park Trail in our own Buckeye backyard, we had grown accustomed to the idea that mountain biking typically involves, if not actual mountains, at least a few features more topographically complex than the pan-flat, packed-sand Christmas tree farm they call Michigan. We'd have been better off on balloon-tired beach cruisers. Live and learn I guess. Our overnight ...
