...good car, check the spare tire (roads are good but service stations can be hours apart), and head inland. Once you breach the mountains that line the coastline - the Outeniqua, the Baviaanskloofbeit or the Swartrugreng - you're in the Karoo. Roads run straight to the horizon, the sky is cloudless and the mountains are a sequence of blues and ambers...
...little plot, meaning and emotion flood each scene. When the band performs at an abandoned fishery, strobe lights and roaring guitars bring spirit to the lifeless locale. Elsewhere, playful anthem “Hoppípolla” soars as children run down the beach and kites fill a cloudless sky. Towards the end of the film, percussionist Orri Páll Dýrason, after looking unsure of himself for the majority of the film, finally attacks his drums with full confidence during “Popplagið.”The greatest part of “Heima?...
...cloudless afternoon early last fall, Honda CEO Takeo Fukui stood by his company's test track outside Tokyo and watched a group of journalists take the company's environmental future for a spin. After test-driving Honda's multimillion-dollar hydrogen-fuel-cell concept car--very, very carefully--I sat down with Fukui to talk about his company's big bet on clean automobiles.

A day earlier, the winds that often slice through this storied, icy gut dividing North America and Asia had roiled those waters; swells had blown the Brunswick-the now-listing ship from New Bedford, Massachusetts-against one of the ice floes. During the summer, these chunks of ice drift northward...
...Gasa is barely able to walk now, and a recent ear infection landed him in hospital for 10 days. Earlier on this warm, cloudless day, when his visitors disembarked from their boat, bringing supplies of rice, bottled water and betel nut, Gasa thanked them for the gifts. Now, in a wavering voice, he recalls the war as the most terrible time of his life. "We could hear bombs all night until daybreak," Gasa says through interpreter Neboty Turukevu, a Solomon Islands police officer who is linked by marriage to the patriarch known locally as "the old man." "We were...
