...without propaganda. Hassan found something else in the camp: "Victims feel hate because they are passive," he says. "But by resisting, the people of Jenin camp acted. They weren't passive at all." Hassan focuses much of the movie on an Israeli soldier who drove one of the massive Caterpillar D9 bulldozers that demolished over 100 buildings in Jenin camp. In a chilling reconstruction, the soldier watches footage of the wreckage with Hassan. "I wanted to show how his nature became evil, how he was forced to internalize evil," he says. But Hassan also includes scenes of the soldier relaxing...
Young patrons of the lounges agree that part of the hookah's charm lies in its illicit associations. "It looks illegal," says Gypsy customer Armen Piskoulian, 18, with a grin, sucking on his hookah with the insouciance of the blue caterpillar in Alice in Wonderland, "but it's not." Others say it's not just stoner chic that has made the hookah a hit with the collegiate crowd. Post-9/11 headlines have also played a part.

Fugakyu is most famous, however, not for its traditional nigiri sushi as for its impressive array of Americanized maki rolls. Caterpillar roll, containing barbecued eel and cucumber surrounded by rice and thin slivers of ripe avocado, was a successful (and amusing) concoction. The sweetness of the barbecue sauce worked well countered by a drop of the potent wasabi and a slice of the pickled ginger. Spider roll, containing an entire deep-fried soft-shell crab, was a delicious, gut-busting treat. Eating the mammoth rolls was quite a challenge—but one well worth taking...
...fast-food giant is trying to attract attention to the demolition of one of its 30,000 outposts. In a Chicago suburb just a few miles down the road from corporate headquarters, the head of McDonald's USA hired a band and had balloons strewn about before a Caterpillar backhoe clawed down the walls of one of the company's older locations. After 24 years, the Hinsdale branch, like the rest of McDonald's, looks a bit tired and frayed at the edges. In a few months, it will be replaced by something that looks more like a historic...
