...offshoots and side genres (soul, punk, new wave, grunge, heavy metal, hardcore, thrashcore, punkcore, corepunk, crapcore - some of these may be made up) to prove the depth of my musical knowledge. I know that rock 'n' roll involves a bass, drums and a guitar, except for sometimes when it doesn't. Sometimes there's a keyboard. Sometimes there isn't. If I had to provide only one example - if I had to offer one song that defines what rock 'n' roll means to me - I'd go with Elvis Presley's "Jailhouse Rock." After that, probably something by the Beatles...

...financial industry canceled its lifeblood sponsorship almost en masse; track attendance is down; and scandals have tarnished everyone from a world champ to the former head of motor sport itself.

That's O.K. with Singapore. The government kicked in $60 million, leaving the local promoter with...
...Iraq was one of the few countries that favored McCain over Obama. In the U.K., there are no differences among the major parties on the country's Afghanistan policy - and certainly no big-name politicians calling for the 9,000 British troops to be pulled out. But that doesn't mean the U.K.'s newest voters won't have an opinion on the mission. "Right now, all the aid money is being spent in the conflict areas," says Reza Khateb, a program volunteer in Kabul. "If you spend your money in the secure areas, it will be more visible...
