...Gedida, infused with Mediterranean motifs, Egyptian strings, bittersweet melody and digitized beats, cause forgotten limbs to tap, twiddle, turn and trot. Atlas, an Egyptian-Palestinain-half-Muslim-half-Jewish-singer-belly-dancer, Brussels-born and U.K.-raised, has performed in London with Jah Wobble, the club fusion outlet Transglobal Underground and in Page and Plant's 1998 European Tour. Gedida is her third album. And perhaps, enough. Atlas' climactic introduction is just a prelude to ten long, indistinguishable tracks. Gedida has everything--hip hop, London dance beats, samplings from Rob Base & E-Z Rock, industrial tones, traditional chants, Egyptian indigenous...

...father's staff is how shrewdly he has chosen. In nearly every case, Bush has tapped the young and the restless, the men and women who were most frustrated with President Bush's do-nothing approach to domestic policy. In the Bush White House, they were known as the Underground, the muscular and instinctive politicians who were more libertarian and diverse than the milkmen on whom the elder Bush relied. And they chafed during the late 1980s and early 1990s as the Republican Party alienated women and minorities. "This is the revenge of the deputies," says a veteran Bush aide...
