...lines in key employment sectors such as textile-manufacturing to a standstill. Rising oil prices had been mitigated by government subsidies during much of Musharraf's tenure, but such subsidies can no longer be sustained. The cost of fuel - used for both transportation and energy production - jumped 17.7% in March, echoed by a 20.6% leap in food-price inflation. The price of bread has nearly doubled. So has the cost of a haircut and a shave on the streets of Karachi. "What can we do?" says barber Shoaib Ahmed, a bachelor who eats all of his meals at a nearby...

"There's [boxer] Manny Pacquiao, [pool player] Efren Reyes and then there's Arnel," says Kookie Luib, a bass player who performed with Pineda during his years...
