LAHORE, Pakistan - Under the Obama administration, American civilian assistance to Pakistan has tripled to $1.5 billion a year, but many critics say that money doesn't seem to have done much to spur the fight against al-Qaida or Islamic extremism. Now the United States is throwing a new weapon into the mix - "Sesame Street," the classic American children's program populated with furry monsters.
What's worse, we make these assessments in circumstances that deny us almost all familiar social cues, including the most basic of all, eye contact. Since we have no visual contact with the vast majority of the people with whom we share the road, their ability to communicate their intentions is highly abridged and subject to frequent misinterpretation. Every tool that humans have evolved to deal with other members of their species is blocked or complicated while driving, which may explain why they act like such jerks. Because it is so often a solitary activity, the little habits, routines, and frustrations of driving can seem oddly intimate.
With the indefinite closing of a portion of the 60 Freeway on Wednesday because of a tanker fire in Montebello, commuters will have to get creative to answer that question.

The answer is on this page, because the winners of the Press- Telegram's annual Halloween Scary Story and Drawing Contest have been chosen, and they are really a fright. The next question is: How scared do you want to be?
Our theater company soon will open its latest production. Almost all of the play takes place in one of two cars, which the actors are sitting in, standing by, etc. The only way into the theater is down steps and through a not-much-larger-than-regular doorway. I thus have to disassemble, then reassemble, the front ends of these cars, along with the front doors, on the stage. I also have to remove them and rebuild them every week for five weeks, as there is another show running at the same time. I'd like to do so in less than two hours each time. So, how would you go about this task? Feel like coming out to Colorado to tackle the task firsthand? - Darren Tom: To answer your last question first, Darren: No. But thanks for asking.
