...satisfy, if you listen with a bit of willpower. Generally, the early songs on 81>85 are boring and odd: deadpan lyrics against bonky day-train melodies lead to wholesome industrial marches. Depeche Mode did have some moments in their youth-tinny drum hooks after the "People are People" chorus, a lot of pleasant moaning, pipey synth pushing throughout. By the second half of 81>85, DM starts timing its airy crescendoes very well and on tracks like "Blasphemous Rumours" and "Shake the Disease" you can feel the dark matter of the eighties, even if you can't dance...

...those 17 products? To "minimize impact" on Americans, says the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative. And how does the USTR determine the impact? By throwing the tariff list open to a beagle chorus of special pleading--by U.S. manufacturers eager to get their European competitors barred, by U.S. importers desperate to keep their shipments coming--and to comment by regular folks like Davis, who are caught in the cross fire.

...public scrutiny hasn't been this intense since the first weeks of the scandal. Some of it isn't so bad. When she walked into a Los Angeles haunt, Lewinsky got a chorus of cheers. And it's common for people to stop, stare and offer unsolicited advice. But friends say the relentless paparazzi make her crazy. On Jan. 15 the New York Post ran an investigative report on Lewinsky's "chocoholic chow-down" the day before. Complete with unflattering photos of the "portly pepperpot," as the paper called her, the story detailed her order (a vanilla cupcake, a slice...

...allegiances. "It's a little tongue-in-cheek," says TIME Paris correspondent Bruce Crumley. "The Gaullists are arguing why Tintin encapsulates the virtues of center-right nationalism, while the socialists claim him for the center-left by pointing to his compassion and altruism." And then of course the traditional chorus on the fringes cites everything from Tintin's racist colonial adventures to the fact that his creator, George Remi (aka Hergé), is accused of collaborating with the Nazis during...

Erica Astrove is pretty sure she knows. She's just seven--a loquacious, blue-eyed second-grader at the public Hunnewell School in Wellesley, Mass. She plays the piano, takes skating lessons and plans to add pottery and chorus. For fun Erica reads almanacs; her parents gave her a book of world maps and flags for Christmas. "My little researcher," her mother Christina says. There's not much Erica shies away from--except homework. Recently, she told her mother she doesn't want to go to middle school, high school or college because of homework. Asked if she might have...
