People's princess and petulant self-promoter, devoted mom and lost soul, calculating, mesmerizing: once again we have occasion to consider the endless contradictions that transformed Diana, Princess of Wales, from nonentity to icon during her brief life and hideous death. In the imposing, high-domed Court 1 at London's Old Bailey last week, her faithful butler Paul Burrell - the man she called "my rock" - was on trial for theft. But Diana was the hovering presence.

Adventurous budget travelers were the first foreigners attracted to Pai's idyllic isolation, burbling streams, cylindrical haystacks and manicured fields of garlic and soybeans. If you overlook the thatched-roof bamboo huts, Muslim mosque?some of the KMT were Muslim Chinese?and Buddhist temples, the place looks almost like a Monet painting...
