Lifestyles Cows on parade in Indiana Andrew Herrmann: Where does milk come from? The Jewel, right? Dominick's, maybe? OK. OK. Even we urbanites know that milk comes from cows, of course.

Entertainment Fall theater preview: The 20th century rocks Take a panoramic look at any theater season and you will be able to spot (or impose) trends. The 2008-09 season is no exception, though a trend might be most visible when considering the array of musicals set for stages here this fall. Think of it as a study in the full meaning of Americana.
