...Over New Year's, Russia forced Belarus to pay a whopping increase in gas prices; Belarus retaliated by stealing oil from the pipeline. But Putin's bile may have origins other than the current quarrel over the price of energy. In the 1990s, Lukashenko, although the president of another country, was immensely popular in Russia because he loudly advocated the reintegration of Belarus with Russia - so much so that some analysts believed he was maneuvering for the top position at the Kremlin itself. At that time, Lukashenko cut a much more attractive figure than then Russian President Boris Yeltsin...
...trimmed to one—partner-in-rhyme-backing Chad Hugo isn’t credited on any of the album tracks—and sole survivor Pharrell opted for “Paid in Full” style minimalism. It’s a bulimic sound, drenched in bile. Most of the beats are pounded flat into hard, flawless two-bar phrases that loop relentlessly, making “Hell Hath No Fury” even tighter. . “Hello New World” is probably the best track Pharrell has mixed in a couple of years (apart...
...show business--and the offense-contrition-comeback cycle has become so familiar--that the scandals immediately became dispassionate meta-stories about scandal management.

Vietnamese pop star My Linh appeared in a 2004 ENV television commercial urging people not to consume bear-bile tonic, which is extracted from the stomachs of trapped bears using steel catheters. This year, ENV set up a national wildlife-trafficking hotline for people to report poaching and restaurants serving endangered species. The staff has expanded to 22. "At the moment, I'm the oldest person in the organization," laughs...
...death squads responsible for many of the worst recent atrocities, no Sunni name incites more bile than Omar. (The original Omar was Islam's second Caliph and is reviled by Shi'ites who believe he worked against the interests of Ali, the son-in-law of the Prophet Muhammad.) More than a dozen Omars interviewed by TIME say that when they produce identification cards bearing their name, they regularly endure harassment by Shi'ite policemen and government officials. Others have met a more gruesome fate. In a single incident last earlier this year, the bodies of 14 Omars were found...
