Will winter weather make it another "big chill" for actress Glenn Close when she takes to the beach to film the pilot of a new series for Sony Pictures Television? Two segments for the still-unnamed thriller will be shot in Center Moriches next weekend, says Nancy Grigor of Hamptons Locations.
One scene will feature Close, who plays a high-powered lawyer, walking along the bay with a five- bedroom contemporary home as the backdrop. (Grigor found the location.) The home was originally designed and once owned by fashion photographer Jacques Malignon, who has photographed the likes of Faye Dunaway, Rachel Hunter and Carol Alt.

Editorial Observer Decoding the Debate Over the Blackness of ...
Those of us who were born black in the years just after World War II had front-row seats for the collapse of American apartheid. We started out confined to all-black communities and schools at a time when skin color was still destiny. But as segregation gave way, many of us were vaulted out of this sequestered world and into colleges, jobs and walks of life that had been closed to us pretty much since the nations founding. The rush of upward mobility produced the inevitable identity crisis, which led in turn to endless discussions about the meaning of blackness in a world where skin color was beginning to matter less and less. At their best, these discussions, held in college dorm rooms at night, were probing, serious and heartfelt. At their worst, they turned into lectures by the race police 60s-era ideologues who characterized blackness not as a matter of individual interpretation or choice, but as a narrow set of attitudes and experiences that were said to make up the authentic black identity.
