...Charmless Man” and Redman’s charming lyrics like “Full of whiskey/ Looking for Lewinsky/ So I can get head.” Ever-captivating spastic Busta Rhymes joins Silkk the Shocker and a catchy bass riff courtesy of the Dub Pistols on “The One.” Groove Aramada delivers a silent nod to the Beastie Boys’ “Flute Loop” with their woodwind sample on “Gangsta Queens,” skilfully overlaid by Versace-lauding girl-rappers Trina and Rah-Diggah...

This forced him to appoint Lionel Jospin as Prime Minister at the head of a coalition...
...problems with the abortion debate as it is currently framed is that both sides use rhetoric designed not to reach a middle ground, but to draw their own adherents to further extremes. Thus anti-abortionists use phrases like “baby-killers” while pro-choice activists dub anyone opposed to abortion a “right-wing religious nut.” Even without this irresponsible rhetoric, it is most likely impossible to have a dispassionate or “academic” debate about abortion. Abortion is a highly emotional and personal issue in general because...
