In addition to being a humanitarian, mother, and sex symbol, Angelina Jolie is a talented actor and filmmaker. She’s often recognized for her ability to embody complex female characters who have a hard edge but a warm heart.

BURLINGTON, Mass. — Dwayne Johnson, better known until recently as the Rock, is a touch-y guy. A hand on the shoulder, a guiding elbow tap — moving across a studio here for his next movie, he used his 6-foot-4 frame as a form of leadership. Not that you’d be likely to miss him otherwise.

As any fan who has followed him from the wrestling ring to the big screen knows, Mr. Johnson is, above all,…

There is definitely no doubt that mega-movie star Brad Pitt is a man of good looks and a whole lot of class and charm.

An artist’s conception depicts a multituberculate in its natural habitat at the time of the dinosaurs (Jude Swales / Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture) A study, published online in the journal Nature, suggests that the multituberculates did so well in part because they developed numerous tubercles (bumps, or cusps) on their back teeth that allowed them to feed largely on angiosperms, flowering plants that were just becoming commonplace.…
