...Tipper Gore's home, a 1915 antebellum-style mansion in the wealthy Belle Meade section of Nashville, is laid out a bit like Gore himself: a gracious and formal Southern façade; slightly stuffy rooms when you walk in the door; and startlingly modern, relaxed, informal living spaces to the rear. The Gores bought the old place five years ago and are still retrofitting it, making it energy efficient with new windows, new heating and cooling units, solar panels on the roof. (The anti-Gore crowd zinged him recently because his electricity bill last August was 10 times...
...restaurant in India that had made Apple's list. It's located in one of the side streets in Kala Ghoda, a vibrant sliver of private art galleries, museums and restaurants in the city's Fort district.

But you can’t find it behind the restaurant/comedy club/lounge/dance club’s faded jade façade or underneath its signature red-and-yellow electric sign. You have to go beyond Mass. Ave to its second address: www.hongkongharvard.com. Having landed its corner of the World Wide Web early last fall, the Kong Web site is a surreal vision of elegance and class. In place of shady clientele...
