...Seattle in the '90s. "I was locked in a cellar but it became my shelter," sang frontman Charbel Haber on "See You in Beirut Whatever Happens," one of the band's original songs that convincingly channels the post-punk era of Sonic Youth and the Cure, but which seems somehow appropriate in the current Beirut setting: a subterranean nightclub called Basement, which coined its slogan "It's Safer Underground" during last summer's Israeli air raids...

"People with OCD don't typically have a degenerative course of illness," says Dr. Ben Greenberg, a professor of psychiatry at the Brown University Medical School and the leader of the OCD work that led to the application for FDA approval.

Until I read the story "Why We Buy" [Aug. 27], I thought that HeadOn was an ointment designed to lighten facial scars, not the homeopathic headache cure that it is, thanks to its maker's ambiguous ad campaign. No matter how often I've heard the commercial repeat the name HeadOn, I never would have bought the product, thinking I had no use for it. Now that I know what it is, I still won't purchase...
