...Time to Stop? I have grown disappointed over the past few years as TIME seems to have developed an unending devotion to lists of people [TIME 100, May 12]. I imagine you all sitting around a table at a bar, throwing out names and drinking beer as you pretend these lists provide anything that resembles decent content. What happened to the masterful magazine of record and real depth? As a longtime subscriber, I wish you would go back to substantive reporting and drop the vacuous list-making. Susan Heron, Tampa...

"We can't cater to every whim," says Conte, "which was hard for me because you never want to feel inhospitable." Briones suggests nixing the bubbly: "Not everyone likes champagne.

...over the city, squads of anxious riot police manned street corners as Chelsea and United fans - easily distinguished by their, respectively, blue and red-and-white regalia - strolled the streets, drinking beer and riding the famous Moscow subway.
