...shows at most three similarities. The Sierra Club, for example, wants the country to use nonhydro renewables such as wind and solar power for 20% of its energy by 2020. Cheney, by contrast, aims for only 2.8%. "If Bush really believes these plans are similar," says Sierra Club president Carl Pope, "then Arthur Andersen must be checking his math." The bottom line is that Cheney's plan calls for $33 billion in energy-industry subsidies, including $13 billion for the oil industry and $2 billion for coal. Documents released by the Energy Department reveal that environmental groups were given just...
This month gave a beam of hope to those desperate for gender equality on screen. The two top films for the April 5-7 weekend were thrillers starring women: David Fincher's Panic Room, with Jodie Foster besieged by three burglars, and Carl Franklin's High Crimes, in which lawyer Ashley Judd defends her enigmatic husband in a high-stakes court-martial.

And on Memorial Day weekend, Jennifer Lopez provides a Star Wars alternative with the spousal revenge drama...

...extravaganza at Avalon, though, was something else entirely and indicates the direction dance music must go if it’s to truly catch on in this country. The whole club had been transformed, with tribal figures, aliens and patterns around the front and back of the main stage. Carl Cox spun his magic from the balcony, where the DJ is usually located in Avalon. Sasha and Digweed, however, entrenched themselves on the main stage, surrounded by two huge screens which showed psychedelic images of hands clenching and unclenching, flowers blooming and Space Invaders images. The lights were also overwhelming...
