...floor of the ballroom tilts now and again--fore to aft, sometimes port to starboard. But the steps of the dancers remain steady. A diminutive 92-year-old dowager, resplendent in her pink ball gown, sparkling jewelry and a blond bouffant hairdo topped with a black velveteen bow, smiles on the arm of her young officer escort as he leads her through the traditional paces of the Gay Gordons. They are surrounded by a swirl of tuxedoes, taffeta and tiaras--a time warp on the water aboard the grandest dame of them all, the British ocean liner Queen Elizabeth...
...Hick). Frantz Fanon's Black Skin, White Masks famously explored black identity; the book on the new crop of hip-hoppers could be named White Skin, White Masks. Eminem, a.k.a. Slim Shady, a.k.a. Marshall Mathers, has managed to create a media-ready outsize racial persona--dyed blond hair, played-up trailer-trash roots--that can compete with the color and spark of other stars in today's multicultural music universe, from gangsta rapper DMX to Latin pop sensation Ricky Martin...

Yet this is the same girl who, at the age of 14, found herself alone in a Texas hotel room with a 41-year-old pedophile she first met in an AOL chat room about six months earlier...
Katie Tarbox, the very picture of affluent teen normality, shows off her family?s two-story house in the plush Connecticut suburb of New Canaan. The 18-year-old stops only to look briefly in a mirror and smooth down her already well-coiffed, highlighted blond hair. Then she takes me to her room, where a Gateway computer and a Sony Vaio vie with her Laura Ashley bedspread set and wicker furnishings. "The Vaio is such a beautiful thing," she sighs. We go back downstairs and say hello to cockatoo Agidore and Katie?s older sister ? also blond and round...
