One of this year's selections is Tim Love, an architect whose contribution to style is wearing untucked dress shirts and standing against walls. I do both all the time; in fact, as I type this, I'm wearing an untucked dress shirt (kidlet on seeing his photo: "But you're not wearing a white shirt"). I better start clearing a space on the mantel for the trophy (there's gotta be a trophy, right?).

The Boston Foodie fills us in: We now hold the record for the world's largest cannoli - 12 feet and 300 pounds of rich, sugary goodness.

In order to replicate the tiny chocolate bits used in the typical cannoli, full-size Hersey's kisses were brought in. I also asked exactly how they filled the entire thing. The answer: holes were drilled along the top of the shell and the filling was piped in from there. This was like the Big Dig of pastry engineering!

The New York Times takes a long look at Ted Williams in 1941:

It is a 20th-century baseball masterpiece unlike any other, carved not across one World Series, one month or even 56 games but from April 15 to Sept. 28. Every single at-bat figured in the outcome, unlike when a hitter chases home run records.
