It looms over East Beach and Lighthouse Road, a hulking landmark whose most notable public era, for locals of a certain age, was during the 1960s, when its owner at the time, Rebekah West Harkness, a Standard Oil heiress, became a patron of the Joffrey Ballet and then founded her own company.
Olinski; Kirkpatrick Hill's Miss Agnes; Kevin Henkes's Mr. Slinger; Roald Dahl's Miss Honey; Harry Allard's Miss Nelson; and J.K. Rowling's Remus Lupin and Minerva McGonagall, though those of a certain age might also include the charitable and committed Mr. Chips (forgotten now?) or the proper and terrible Miss Dove (certainly forgotten now).
It's not unusual, as a journalist, to hear public health scientists of a certain age dismiss a news story of a patient's experience as an "n of 1"—meaning a numerator of 1 over a denominator of some presumed large number, or, translated from jargon, as an anecdote that isn't statistically representative.
Within a week or so, Ms. Collins, now 193, had created a secret Facebook group with just that title, inviting her friends into the internet era's version of a consciousness-raising group, where women of a certain age could talk about things they didn't want to share with husbands, partners or children.
In a recent article in The New Republic, the critic Miriam Bale has described the way Ms. Huppert, in Paul Verhoeven's "Elle" — a film about a Parisian woman of a certain age that is as lurid and aggressive as this one is calm and thoughtful — assumes control over the character and her story.
Two films pair screen stars of a certain age: "Leisure Seeker" stars Donald Sutherland and Helen Mirren as an aging couple who hit the road while dealing with Alzheimer's, and "Our Souls at Night" follows widowed neighbors played by Jane Fonda and Robert Redford (who will receive Golden Lions for lifetime achievement).
We do not discuss sexual behavior directly with students before they are of a certain age because it would never be allowed in schools and, in many cases, because young people are not ready for the information at the same time as they would be in the US or other parts of the world.
For those of a certain age, "Castle Wolfenstein" was a beloved top-down adventure shooter, inspired by the World War II movie "The Guns of Navarrone," which appeared in 1981 on the Apple II. It spawned many sequels — notably 1992's pivotal "Wolfenstein 3D," which was a template for the modern first-person shooter.
She has been doing it in myriad ways since her husband declared his candidacy for president, but while attention has largely been focused on their unconventional love story (she is 64, 24 years older than him), her unconventional wardrobe — at least for a political spouse of a certain age — has played a less observed part.
Since then, he's been working steadily (on his own basic-cable dramedy "Men of a Certain Age" and as a cast member in the later seasons of "Parenthood") — but when he auditioned for "Vinyl," he was surprised to discover that Martin Scorsese, an executive producer and the director of the pilot, had never heard of him.
The duo, famous for their work on hits like Gilmore Girls and Golden Girls are now working on a comedy series about two gay men of a certain age and their friend's much younger lover who rescue their pal who's been living in an oppressive retirement community and bring him to their Palm Springs oasis, Variety reports.
It's a higher compliment to point out that Satyal writes with insight about characters one would assume are little like him: Harit, the socially awkward salesman; his mother, an elderly woman seen as a youth in India; his coworker, Teddy, an irrepressibly queeny gent of a certain age; Ranjana, a vaguely dissatisfied woman in middle age.
Despite the occasional flatness of MacNicol's prose, and some irksome references to her glitzy life, I found myself underlining sentences, and then entire passages, that resonated with me, articulating the extreme inadequacy and sense of dislocation single women of a certain age, like MacNicol — and like me — experience in moments when others are growing closer without you.
Fans of a certain age sometimes talk about Howe the way others do about sporting deities they were lucky enough to see back in the day — Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova in a Grand Slam final, Sandy Koufax or Roberto Clemente going around the league one last time, Dr. J defying gravity above the rim, Jim Brown trudging back to the huddle.
That's partly because, for viewers of a certain age (ahem), It functions as an effective big-screen time machine: Unlike King's book—which was adapted in the early 1990s as a hokey, if sincere, TV miniseries—this big-screen version takes place in the summer of 1989, a period of ample pop pleasures (Lethal Weapon 2, New Kids on the Block) and zero bike-helmet laws.
So chockablock is "The Last Laugh" with unregenerate characters saying off-putting or vile things to one another that this pantywaist reader occasionally longed for the quietudes found in the work of that other chronicler of women of a certain age, Barbara Pym, who can get a lot of mileage out of, say, an ambiguous smile from a local vicar at a jumble sale.
I like to wear a men's Puma T7 tracksuit, which I copped after seeing it in so many sharp F. E. Castleberry instagrams, but my dream ensemble would be the one I saw on a chic gray-haired woman of a certain age at JFK waiting for a flight to New Orleans: Exquisite silk top and bottoms from For Restless Sleepers with Gucci Princetown velvet slippers.
Steven Spielberg's 1993 "Jurassic Park" and its three sequels have become the tyrannosaurus rex of movie franchises, grossing more than $3.7 billion, and there are people of a certain age who cannot forget the sight of a pterosaur carrying off Raquel Welch in the 1966 kitsch classic "One Million Years B.C." But has the popularity of these cinematic creatures boosted the market for the fossilized remains of their real-life predecessors?
New York fashion is suffering some sort of identity crisis, and not just because designers are decamping for foreign shores (that's the easy excuse), or making movies instead of shows (get ready for Monse) but because it's in the midst of generational shift — both internally, with founders of a certain age preparing to hand over power, and externally, when it comes to what the customer may want. Athleisure?
Two companies led by women have developed ergonomic high heels whose insoles are designed to promote stability and even weight distribution, and prevent heel-related hospital visits (provoking, for those of a certain age, amused memories of the Easy Spirit "Looks Like a Pump, Feels Like a Sneaker" commercial, echoed in a 2014 McDonald's commercial that featured a group of women dribbling a soccer ball in platform heels).
If you're in any doubt as to the dearth of decent movie roles available to women of a certain age — certain never to see 40 again, at any rate — then buy a ticket for "Shut In." In this achingly inept thriller, you will see Naomi Watts do what she can to sell a plot of such preposterousness that the derisory laughter around me began barely 20 minutes in.
Many minorities of a certain age and place, kids who grew up before the possibility of a black president, were bused up Route 295 to Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore on elementary-school field trips, treated to speeches by a renowned neurosurgeon and taught that if they went to class, kept their heads in books and got good grades, they, too, could one day be like Ben Carson.
Certainly the events of that nadir of a year, which include the fall of Saigon and the near bankruptcy of New York City, do not overly concern the band's front man, Matty Healy, who was born in 1989 and grew up in Manchester, U.K. Nevertheless, on a recent visit, Healy gamely agreed to walk the winter blocks around his East Village hotel in search of the 1975 that New Yorkers of a certain age remember.
For those who aren't up on their British crime classics, French is the wealthy woman "of a certain age" whose employment of a young male escort is the focus of the trial referenced in Agatha Christie's Witness for the Prosecution, the TV adaption of which premieres today on Acorn TV. Like Sex and the City's infamous Ms. Jones, French oozes glamour, makes no apology for her delight in carnal pleasures, and seeks to live life on her own terms.
Director: Nate Parker Cast: Nate Parker (The Great Debaters, Beyond the Lights), Penelope Ann Miller (The Freshman, TNT's Men of a Certain Age), Armie Hammer (The Social Network, The Lone Ranger) Distributor: Fox Searchlight It didn't take long for some skeptics in Park City to start suggesting that writer-director-producer-star Parker's long-gestating passion project — a biopic of violently rebellious slave Nat Turner — only became such a favorite at this year's Sundance because white audiences were overreacting for the Oscars' diversity controversy.
Even though very few state polls have been conducted on views of the A.H.C.A., we are able to estimate views on the bill in each state using a statistical method called M.R.P. (multilevel regression and poststratification) and eight national polls that the Kaiser Family Foundation, YouGov and Public Policy Polling shared with us on people's views on the A.H.C.A. While no polling system is infallible, our M.R.P. model combines respondents' demographic characteristics, their state and their views of the A.H.C.A. to estimate the probability that a voter of a certain age, race and gender, and in a state with certain characteristics, would support the proposal.
Mike Isaac, a technology reporter for The Times, joined WNYC Radio's The Brian Lehrer Show to discuss the Pokémon Go craze and how it has become one of the fastest growing phenomena in the gaming world: I talked to a few dozen people over the weekend and this week, really only five days since this game was released, and most of the people that I ran into have been in the 20s and 30s [age] range, which seems to be the sweet spot for this sense of nostalgia that is really cool to me … with millennials of a certain age that have never really had this nostalgia before for things that came back from their childhood.
