...Iraq: coarsening the American spirit at home and abroad, killing others. The film contains previously unseen footage of U.S. soldiers' abuse of Iraqi detainees last Christmas Eve. One of the men in custody apparently has an erection under his blanket; a soldier swats it and says, "Ali Baba has a hard-on," while another G.I. shouts, in a schoolboy's merry derision, "You touched his dick!" Toward the end of the film, Moore returns home to Flint to grieve with the parents of a dead soldier, then goes to Washington in a quixotic attempt to badger Congress into volunteering their...
...hours later, the upfront that began with a fake Beatles ended with a surprise performance by The Who. The actual Who - surviving members Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend - playing their songs that have been adapted as "CSI" themes (for "CSI: NY," it's "Baba O'Reilly"), for what amounts to a sales conference of ad men, brand managers and TV affiliate executives. It was one of the sadder things I've ever seen, and yet it was somehow appropriate. They closed with "Won't Get Fooled Again" - the "CSI: Miami" theme - which, for its time (1971), was an unusually conservative...
...Baba Lukman personifies the south's rage against Bangkok. A slightly built man in his 50s, he is a self-confessed separatist fighter who leads a cell of militants aligned to a group calling itself New P.U.L.O. (According to Andrew Tan, a regional security expert at Singapore's Nanyang Technological University, New P.U.L.O. is one of six main groups that have recently pooled their resources under a single banner, Bersatu, the Malay word for united.) In what is a rare interview with a southern Thai militant, Time met with Lukman a few days prior to the April 28 bloodbath...
...falafels are distinctively dark green, with a crunchy outer shell—so light that it’s nearly impossible to distinguish between the baked and fried varieties offered at Sepal. The evening buffet, available Mondays through Wednesdays, presents a basic selection of fatoush salad, hummus and baba ganoush, okra with cilantro and garlic, chicken with sumac, lima beans and a deliciously savory maklouba—hearty chunks of lamb or tofu, cauliflower and eggplant sealed with rice and cooked in lamb broth, then turned upside down and served steaming hot. Other Sepal specialties include the warm, filling...
This brightly-decorated, cozily-romantic café has been tucked away off Newbury Street for 12 years. According to owner Moshe Sander, local students and visiting tourists flock to his handmade tables for platters of falafel, shawarma and kebabs. Served on a bed of creamy baba ganoush, tahini and slightly salty hummus drizzled with olive oil and paprika, Sander’s falafel is crunchy and crispy on the outside, with a heavy, crumbly inner texture. Accented by onions and green peppers, the mixed chicken and lamb kebabs arrive sizzling at the table, while the chicken and lamb shawarma selections...
