  1. America's Rifle: Rise Of The AR-15

    When his son turned 14 a year ago, Jonathan Hardy bought the teen a gift that was both a coming-of-age badge and a hot item: an AR-15 rifle.

    When his son turned 14 a year ago, Jonathan Hardy bought the teen a gift that was both a coming-of-age badge and a hot item: an AR-15 rifle. To Hardy, the matte-black weapon is not a dangerous assault rifle. His son's model shoots the same small, low-...

  15. Multidisciplinary

    Artists: head to Middletown this weekend and hug a scientist. Choreographer Liz Lerman (pictured) curates "Innovations: Intersection of Art and Science," a two-day Wesleyan symposium co-hosted by the school's Center for the Arts and its Hughes Program in the Life Sciences. Lerman tapped brainy-pants from the MIT Center for Art, Science and Technology, the Raw Data project at Canada's National Laboratory for Particle and Nuclear Physics and academics from Virginia Tech, the University of Colorado, Yale and its own Middletown campus to talk about art and science research, teaching and activism. Lest you think it's all going to be dry and academic-like, take a look at the symposium website; there'll be panels and breakout activities, including something called "ethical movement." Sounds dicey.

  19. Connecticut's Oscar Favorites From Those In The Know

    The Academy Awards bring out the critic in everyone. It starts when the nominations are announced &mdash; <em>"Whaddya mean, Ben Affleck wasn't nominated?"</em> &mdash; and lasts long after Oscar night. That annual ritual takes place Sunday night and will be televised starting at 8:30 p.m. on ABC. (That's the actual ceremony; the red carpet fashion show starts at 7 p.m.) To give a little inside perspective to the glitzy festivities, we thought we'd ask a few Connecticut residents &mdash; people whose lives revolve around the entertainment industry &mdash; producers, directors, cinema managers, actors, costumers &mdash; about the Oscars and the 2012 movie year in general. What impressed them? What trends did they notice? Who should win? Who will win? Let's let the experts riff ...
