These panels of lights, almost 10 feet in total length, can be set to any rhythmic frequency, and can alternate in and out of any color in the spectrum. They can even be set to follow the rhythms of a piece of music (Donna Summers anyone?). There is so much room for variation, in fact, that the house has encouraged Quincy residents to discover their artistic sides by being light guru for a day, trying their hand at controlling the colors and pattern of the lights...
...test begins. As the only black Senator, Obama will face expectations that will be hard to fulfill--especially if he wants to be a national candidate someday. "My greatest fear for Barack is that he'll be in the background, another black face in the sea of whiteness," says Donna Brazile, a veteran strategist who ran Al Gore's campaign in 2000. For now, she says, "he doesn't have to become the next black leader. He has to become a great Senator from the state of Illinois...
Three books celebrating unique facets of American style hit the shelves this month, just in time for the holidays. Jeweler Robert Lee Morris' The Power of Jewelry looks at his 30 years of work creating high-fashion jewelry and body ornaments for the likes of Donna Karan and Calvin Klein.

"There will be John Edwards' band of friends, but in this party, the Clintons have the juice," says Brazile. More than any other potential candidate, she adds, Senator Clinton transcends the party's ideological fault lines and the battle between...
...Donnas are not a joke band, though they started out as one. After debuting in 1993 at their eighth-grade talent show and briefly hooking up with a producer-Svengali, each member assumed the pretend first name Donna (flipping the Ramones' gimmick of assuming the same last name) and played superfast punk riffs stolen from the Dead Boys and Voidoids. On Gold Medal they're going by their real names, and they have expanded their thievery to include licks from Loverboy, Kiss and other high priests of shallow catchiness. The music is nothing you haven't heard before. Songs like...
