...ying-yang," says Eugenie Scott, executive director of the National Center for Science Education. "The problem is [antievolutionists] will never tell you what they would accept as a transitional fossil." Scott, one of the school district's expert witnesses against LeVake, says, "If you look at the content of his curriculum guide, it's the same thing that five years ago they called creation science. He's just left out the C word." Indeed, creationists have become a lot more shrewd. For years they'd propose antievolution laws and lesson plans brimming with religious language, and for years their cases...
Tribute albums are often content with summoning up old ghosts. Saxophonist , 31, takes a more rewarding approach on his excellent new CD: he offers up fresh takes on the music of French Gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt, but he does so by substituting his own instrument in the lead role. Carter, whether he's playing tenor or soprano sax, shows off a sweet, sinuous tone; when he reinterprets Reinhardt's classic Nuages with a bass sax, the muscular sound is distancing at first, but then it wraps itself around the listener like an anaconda.

As Messier recently told TIME, "Fusing content and media [distribution] has been Vivendi's strategy since Day One." He says the merged entity will become "a totally integrated group with full control over its operations...
...challenges of watching MTV is trying to tell the shows from the ads. The channel has always cleverly acknowledged the feedback loop between its content (music, style) and its commerce (gadgets, soft drinks, style again), and this animated spy-and-fashion spoof takes that interplay to a new level. Not only does the art look like a Bluefly.com ad, the show is also winkingly laced with faux-product plugs (like "limited-edition Stussy surveillance shades"). Alas, ironic-style porn turns out to be as tiresome as the real thing. And as a genre, spy parody is about as happenin...
