...dismay of the British, although no less urgent than on the European mainland, has a more subtle dimension. Despite myriad objections to much of U.S. foreign po licy, many government officials and media pundits nonetheless insist on developing a “special relationship” with the U.S. They reason that our two nations have more shared self-interest than exists with other countries, and they conclude that we should co nsult with each another on foreign policy issues before we turn to the wider international community. British Prime Minister Tony Blair uses this doctrine to justify support...
...beef, mild white cheese, boiled eggs, pickled cucumber, garlic and an earthy herb vinaigrette. Move on to a salmon and saury combination: slices of juicy fish baked with herbs and green and black olives and topped with a pastry cup of red caviar. A hearty alternative is the Jharkoye Po-Slavyanski: a rich, sour cream stew of meatballs, potatoes and wild mushrooms prepared with a bread cover. End with a fruit tart of fresh raspberries and currants...
Even the most overbearing matchmaker has never had a line so good: "The entire future of the species depends on you, kids." The mating season for what may be the rarest bird on earth, the po'ouli, or black-faced honeycreeper, just ended, and researchers in Hawaii were unable to mate successfully two of the three remaining birds in the species. Suffering from habitat loss and disease, the po'ouli faces extinction on the slopes of Maui's Haleakala volcano. Researchers at the Maui Forest Bird Recovery Project finally captured one of the two remaining females last month. At dusk...
...fact in its bio but an agenda. To be fair, its major-label debut, Watermelon, Chicken & Gritz (last week's biggest gainer on the Billboard Top 200 chart), shows none of the crass preoccupation with pimping and cash that dominates rap from the coasts. On the laid-back Po' Folks, the guys rhyme through thick drawls, "All my life been po'/But it really don't matter no mo'/And they wonder why we act this way/Nappy Roots gonna be O.K." The message is that Nappy Roots' members are happy being who they are--maybe a little too happy. Those...
...that's the case, life in Singapore is tougher than the tourist brochures admit. Hardworking Ang Boon (Joshua Ang), dreamy artist Liu Kok (Shawn Lee) and spoiled Terry (Huang Po Ju) get grief from their family and scorn from peers for ending up in the slowest class in school. That shame extends to their parents, who have parallel problems. Terry's father (Richard Low) fears his company will be destroyed by foreign competition, while Liu Kok's father (played by Neo) loses out at work to an incompetent expat because his English is lacking. His wife (the anguished Xiang...
