...Years of Refusal,” is overwrought and ill-conceived, the result of a warped ego that has not yet realized its time has come and gone. Morrissey’s voice has morphed into something wholly unsuitable for the roaring guitars that make up his instrumental bed. Like floorboards, driven apart over the years by heat and humidity, there’s a divide between the vocals and the instrumentation. Morrissey has given in entirely to his natural tendency to caramel crooning, and, nearly always stalled in throaty vibrato, sounds more like a second-rate Broadway singer than...

Life in the camp, not surprisingly, is one of strict discipline. Patients get up at 6:30 a.m. and go to bed at 9:30 p.m. Their daily schedule includes military drills, therapy sessions, reading and sports. "At first, I felt like I was living in hell," says Yang Xudong, a laconic 22-year-old in his second month of treatment. "But over time, it gets more comfortable and peaceful." Despite the progress he's made, like eating a diet other than the instant noodles he used to live on while playing online games, the Beijing native admits he still...

...This town knows a thing or two about power-grabbing philanderers, the ones who wine and dine you, take you to bed, collect some campaign cash and then move on to the next hot catch - but not before offering a hug and the gentle admonition, "It's not you, babe. It's me." It doesn't so much matter that by all appearances Gregg is no gallant, that he seemed to actually be telling the truth when he said the reason he got cold feet at the altar was that he couldn't bring himself to fully support the President...

...Domingos Santos a longstanding leader of Portugal's Communist party, also knows what's at stake. He was a victim of secret police beatings during the junta's rule. Deprived of sleep and forced to spend days in a tiny windowless cell without a bed, Santos remains an outspoken critic of the U.S. base at Guantanamo. Terrorists need to be punished, he says, but torture is never justified. "We could take some [prisoners in Portugal] on grounds of human rights because of Guantanamo is a cancer which is afflicting society," he told TIME. "I condemn terrorism. It is barbaric...
