...arrests--in rap there's no such thing--but by something far more mundane: words. Jay-Z's aptly titled classic What More Can I Say is more than 800 words long, and when it's over, you know everything you could possibly need to know about him. (By contrast, James Blunt's pop ballad You're Beautiful has fewer than 200 words, half of which are beautiful.) Now multiply What More Can I Say's 800 words by 12 to make an album, then multiply again by the number of albums in a catalog, and it's obvious...

...back, only better. The Lomo LC-A+ is now handmade in China, but the look is still Soviet cool.

A new multiple exposure switch allows unlimited shots on a single frame, while the added cable release lets you fire the shutter from afar. At $320, this model also costs more, but one thing hasn't changed: Lomo is sticking to film. Says Lomographic Society head Matthias Fiegl: "Because young people are used to digital photography, analog is special...
...Western liberalism, aligned with Israel and free from Syrian domination and Iranian influence. That effort failed: Bashir wound up dead; Amin went into temporary exile; U.S. credibility evaporated and Americans remaining in Beirut became kidnap targets; and Israel got mired in an 18-year military occupation. By contrast, Syrian and Iranian influence in Lebanon swelled...
...contrast, having 30 students hospitalized in 2004, when students made their own decisions, is hardly shocking as a fraction of both Harvard and Yale’s undergraduate populations (roughly 12,000 combined) or the thousands who actually attended the tailgate. Saturday’s tailgate was certainly healthier—even with the water shortages—but it would be healthier still to turn the tailgate into a salad-eating contest, or, better still, ban it entirely. We hope that in 2008 the College is able to strike a better balance between safety and trust than it achieved...
