This raises the questions of how long the government plans to continue these tactics and on what criteria the decision to employ them will rest. What if the notorious House Un-American Activities Committee had been given these tools? JESSICA GARD Malden, Mass...
...most powerful message can come from the un-likeliest messenger. When Nkosi Johnson, an 11-year-old South African with AIDS, walked onto the stage at an international aids conference in Durban last year, he hardly seemed able to hold the microphone, let alone address 10,000 delegates.

In Kitchen Confidential, which became a surprise best seller, Bourdain drew a super-testosteroned picture...
From the strictly traditional (Dinah Washington on “Silent Night”) to the commercially traditional (Jimmy Smith on “Jingle Bells”) to the decidedly un-traditional (Louis Armstong on “Zat You, Santa Claus”), there is hardly an errant note on their disc. Joe Williams, with his voice of liquid gold, oozes sophistication from every pore during “Let it Snow!” Sentimental and sweet without ever saccharine, Williams’ arrangement presents perhaps the best version of the song ever recorded.
