...rush? "He believes his brother is mentally ill," says TIME's San Francisco Bureau chief Dave Jackson, "and the government is pushing the death penalty." Indeed, as jury selection reaches the halfway stage, it looks as if a large majority of the potential jurors favor capital punishment for Kaczynski if convicted. Adds Jackson: "It's certainly a poignant situation David is in. He turned his brother in, now he's faced with the possibility that his words will lead to his brother's execution...
...drive, sometimes for hours, to shop at Ontario Mills, the size of 38 football fields, set in the shadow of the San Bernardino Mountains. On a weekday afternoon scores of patrons are driving on the virtual-reality car track or teeing off on the virtual-reality driving range at Dave & Buster's, an eats-and-entertainment emporium at Ontario. Tens of thousands of shoppers, many off tour buses and from as far away as South Korea, march through 10 color-coordinated "neighborhoods"--themed retail zones catering to tastes ranging from upscale dresses to sporting and adolescent attire.

Over a throw-away guitar accompaniment, Perry sings lyrics that embody the underbelly of city life. "There's a garbage can, you can eat. There's a park bench, you can sleep...
...Right" are scorchers. The classic "Jane Says" gets a new treatment and wears it nicely. The 12-minute sonic bomb "Three Days" shows just why Jane's Addiction never failed to tear up a stage. Eric and Stephen play as if they were controlled by a single mind, Dave alternately soothes and destroys with absolutely stellar guitar work and Perry sings his guts out, as always. The most ferocious recording on the album, though, would have to be the live version of "Whores," a track from Jane's Triple X Records self-titled release. Spewing forth some of the most...
