  1. Antiques: Folk art covers wide range of items

    King Features Syndicate
    "Folk art" is the confusing name given to some things made by untrained artists. From the 1930s into the ’50s, antique collectors might have called these pieces "primitive" or named them for a region, like "Pennsylvania German style." By the 1950s,...

  3. Guys and dhols

    Attired in a canary-yellow shirt, sequined slacks and a pharaoh's headdress, Sunny Jain beat a brisk tattoo on his two-sided dhol drum. Beaded and bewigged residents of New Orleans' Tremé and French Quarter neighborhoods danced and shouted along to the ecstatic music of Jain's Brooklyn-based brass-and-drums band, Red Baraat, who made their Mardi Gras debut in February. As captured on YouTube, one boy does his best to keep up with the frenzied beat, crazy-legging and pumping his arms. He excitedly jumps in the air at the song's finish.

  7. A new bull market -- or a bubble?

    WASHINGTON -- Where's the stock market going? Has a bull market started? Or are we on the cusp of a new bubble?
    WASHINGTON -- Where's the stock market going? Has a bull market started? Or are we on the cusp of a new bubble? As I argued in my last column -- which noted that stocks have reached new highs -- the answers matter beyond individual investment...

  15. The market strikes back

    WASHINGTON -- We now know the promise and peril of paper wealth. In the last 15 years, the stock market's convulsions ought to have rattled even hardy investors. Twice -- after the popping of the "tech bubble" in 2000 and after the financial crisis in 2008 -- the market lost half its value. It then struggled for years to regain its previous peaks; this happened again last week when the Dow Jones industrial average exceeded its 2007 high. Past turmoil and present uncertainty (the sequester, Europe's crisis) might have convinced most individual investors to quit the market. It hasn't. Main Street hasn't abandoned Wall Street.

  17. The eternal disputes of the Dead Sea Scrolls

    In June 1954, a small advertisement ran in the Wall Street Journal: "Biblical manuscripts dating back to at least 200 BC are for sale." The commercial offering was the start of a long and controversial path for the Dead Sea Scrolls, a cache of fragmentary writings in Hebrew and Aramaic (with a few in Greek) that were found in caves near the Dead Sea between 1947 and 1956.

    You've heard the old joke about the stockbroker showing a friend all the luxuries he's bought with the commissions paid by his customers — big house, big car, big yacht. And the friend asks, "But where are the customers' yachts?"
