When Germany invaded Russia in 1941, Roosevelt once again defied prevailing opinion. To the isolationists, the invasion of Russia confirmed the wisdom of keeping America out of the war. America should rejoice, they argued, in watching two hated dictatorships bleed each other to death. Within the government, Roosevelt's military advisers argued that Russia had almost no chance of holding out. Still, Roosevelt insisted on including Russia in the lend-lease agreement. In the first year alone, America sent thousands of trucks, tanks, guns and bombers to Russia, along with enough food to keep Russian soldiers from starving, and enough...

eBay is also one of the Internet's greatest financial success stories. It has defied the 11th Commandment: Internet Start-Ups Shall Bleed Red Ink. It's made money from its first month of operation. After only four years, eBay is worth some $20 billion--more than Sears and J.C. Penney combined--and its stock price has surged 25-fold. The rewards for the key players have been lavish. Whitman, after less than two years at the company, controls shares worth about $1 billion. Skoll's net worth is more than $3 billion. Omidyar's 30% ownership adds...

...artists like Soultre, Mack 10, Juvenile and BG. Unfortunately, there is little that any of them can do to help the Chilldrin's situation. While C.O.G. has the lingo and feel of urban America, there is little beneath the surface. The album is a blur of repetitive basslines that bleed from one track to the next; the rhymes are lousy, and the braggadocio and self-references that make contemporary rap such flamboyant entertaining falls flat here. It is difficult to distinguish the three group members except that they all fall off rhythm. As a result, the majority of the tracks...

...survived Beetlejuice and Batman Returns with a smile on your face, this film is a beautifully dismal glimpse into Burton's newest alternate universe, where supernatural evil is prompted by human vice, and the consequences are so relentlessly gory that even the trees bleed. If only to let the blood flow longer and more freely (even in one gratuitous scene, from the implied decapitation of a little boy), this version of Sleepy Hollow expands significantly and more disturbingly on the original. Irving's tale becomes entwined in a complicated plot of greed and corruption, a horrifying subplot explaining the psychological...

...Rock and roll demands attention because it is made by losers who never got any before; pop is made by pretty boys and jocks and all the kids at Archie's Riverdale High, who have, y'know, problems and all, but never feel compelled to open up and bleed--actual plasma all pouring out over your chest as you scream incoherently--on stage, pace Iggy. Or just listen to "Search and Destroy" on the Stooge's Raw Power album: this is one of the most earnest and moving performances recorded. And so it's a total pleasure when Iggy follows...
