...first 90 piquant seconds of 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...

Atlas, of Burlingame, Calif., suffered a catastrophic 65% drop in sales this year. The downturn led the company to lay off four of its 16 employees and to slash its travel budget from $450,000 to $75,000. With the help of its suppliers, Atlas cut the cost of its products in order to keep its struggling customers. "It's been the most difficult time in our history...
...results are quite bizarre. Though John Q. Internet has kept The Great Gatsby and The Sound and the Fury in the top 50, he's also added Starship Troopers and several works by Stephen King. Four works in the top ten are by Ayn Rand. Number one, Atlas Shrugged, has received many more votes than the first non-Rand entry, Battlefield Earth by L. Ron Hubbard.
