...immigration, globalization, suicide bombers, wire-tapping, and stem cell research. On “Slow Down,” Wyclef’s soliloquy to the post-9/11 world, he sings, “I seen two birds / Crash into two New York giants.” The chorus is similarly desolate: “Where’s the hope gone? / Where’s the hope gone? / I see the whole world turn into a war zone.” Jean’s answer to global violence is to strive for the creation of a global...

...landslide Dec. 2 victory posted by President Vladimir Putin's United Russia Party set off a small chorus of Western criticism. Germany's spokesman said the process was "neither free, fair nor democratic." The U.S. called for any irregularities to be investigated.
