...producer for Berlusconi's Mediaset network who is one of RockPolitik's lead writers. "He's both innovator and conservative. You just can't classify him." This time around, Celentano is taking direct aim at Berlusconi's conflict of interest. The billionaire Prime Minister already owned Italy's three main private TV stations when he was elected, and since then he's installed allies in key posts at two of the three state-owned channels. He called the shows of three popular critics of his polices "criminal" and they were soon cancelled. Celentano has responded by stacking his guest list...
...main responsibilities: fighting inflation and fostering orderly growth. The two are sometimes at odds, and every Fed chairman must choose which way to lean. Greenspan, like Paul Volcker before him, is a proven inflation fighter. But Bernanke shows signs of tolerating rising prices. When the economy was threatened with deflation (generally falling prices) a few years ago, "he among all the Fed governors was most vocal about the need to generate inflation," says Alan Wild, a global fixed-income manager for Barings Bank. In November 2002, Bernanke publicly spoke of options, citing Milton Friedman's famous "helicopter drop" of money...
Nearly four hours after the bomb blast, Neeraj Chawla still walks around with a large blotch of blood on his blue shirt.

A bomb went off this evening in a busy intersection in Paharganj, killing at 16 people and injuring 60. (An explosion in the Sarojini district may have killed 39; another bomb went off in a bus in south Delhi; while police defused another in Chandi Chowk.) Chawla's handicrafts...
...There are policemen everywhere in Paharganj: they have sealed off Main Bazar, the street where the blast went off, and only allow journalists and foreign tourists living in the hotels back into the street. The garish hotel lights on Main Bazar are mostly dimmed tonight; the street is eerie and deserted, except for the tourists...
...historical or theory courses. What exactly is a typical VES course? Well, let me point out a couple. VES 10: Drawing. VES 56r: Stop-Motion Puppet Animation. VES 120r: Wallpaper and Grids. Yes…wallpaper and grids. The first time Harvard has offered a seminar course where the main prerequisite is being familiar with straight lines. And of course, this isn’t even including some of the more esoteric VES classes, such as VES 420p: Paraphernalia Construction and VES 99s: Comping the Advocate (usually taken concurrently with VES 91c: Nose Candy). Just kidding. I apologize; that...
