When does an advocacy web site cross the line between providing information and inciting violence? In Portland, Ore., a federal trial began on Thursday to determine the viability of a web site titled the Nuremberg Files, a graphic antiabortion site (www.christiangallery.com/atrocity) that lists the names of abortion providers around the country and asks for help in gathering information about them. In some cases the site displays photos and other identifiers, such as addresses and phone numbers, as well as names and birthdates of family members.

In fact, one could say he sounds like a cross between Barry White and McGruff the Crime Dog. However, DMX doesn't share McGruff's anticrime leanings: his new album, like his last, which went double platinum, is seething with viciousness and violence.
