...plans to make Hong Kong a richer, cleaner, more equitable and more democratic society. In a town run by an aggregation of élites, he has pressed the flesh in working-class neighborhoods, engaged in televised candidate debates with Leong, and even taken a ride in an open-topped bus, waving to people who can't vote for him. Tsang is doing all this because he wants a wider mandate; he is a man with something to prove. "My objective," Tsang told TIME in an interview in his campaign office, "is not only to win the votes...

Christianity, especially Evangelicalism, is growing faster in Africa than anywhere else on the planet. Promising riches not just in death but here on earth, the churches...
Hard-core BOB DYLAN fans will find no rolling stone unturned at an ambitious symposium at the University of Minnesota's Weisman Art Museum later this month. "Highway 61 Revisited: Dylan's Road from Minnesota to the World" includes a bus tour through the folk bard's hometown of Hibbing, Minn., and chats with authors and musicians on such topics as "Einstein Disguised as Robin Hood: The Enigmatic Jewishness of Bob Dylan" and "Hotter Than a Crotch: Bob Dylan at the Borderline of Sleaze." Symposium organizer Colleen Sheehy, explaining Dylan's appeal, says, "He's someone people love to argue...
