Smith knows his stuff. His best-known volume, “The World’s Religions” (reissued in paperback for this program), is a standard text for students of comparative religion. His is also the original New Age spiritual surfer. The son of Methodist missionaries, Smith has spent much of the last 50 years in India, Iran and other locales experiencing firsthand the mystical highs of Hindu holy men, Buddhist monks and Sufi saints.

But as the laundry industry begins to float a new line of horizontal-axis, or ““front loader,’’ washing machines, some companies are try-ing to soak their competitors by surreptitiously gathering information on future models. The practice, called competitive intelligence, is better known as industrial espionage.

With two galaxy locations established in the series so far, fans wondered where the next game would take place, or even if it might span both regions in some way. There’s no doubt that the events of the Mass Effect trilogy greatly affected the Milky Way and changed its fate forever, but Mass Effect: Andromeda had just as much of an impact on the state of its own galactic setting....

Just take a deep breath and realize the storylines that were born over the winter: Mookie Betts is now a Dodger, Nolan Arenado is still a Rockie, Luis Severino won’t be pitching for the Yankees in 2020 but Gerrit Cole will.

“I don’t know if I’m really believing the whole thing,” said Judd, 27, from her home outside Nashville last week. “When I started work on this album, I really felt I was starting all over again. My identity for the last eight years-actually 27 years-has been as Naomi’s kid. What if people aren’t as interested in Wynonna as they were in the Judds?” That seemed a good question. For eight years, the Judds were one of the top acts in country music, and a spark for the music’s resurgence....

Fans of the comic will notice that a lot of the changes are, for the most part, small moments that viewers won’t necessarily pick up on, but also do, in fact, make sense as Gaiman said. One such change, for example, appears in the show’s fourth episode “A Hope in Hell” in which Dream (Tom Sturridge) goes to Hell to meet its ruler Lucifer (Gwendoline Christie) to get back his stolen helm from a demon, but the only way to have it returned is to engage in a verbal combat....
