...Democracy Snubbed In the Verbatim column, TIME quoted U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell as saying, "There is only one China. Taiwan is not independent. It does not enjoy sovereignty as a nation" [Nov. 8]. That statement would have provoked a very different reaction from the Taiwanese if Powell had been quoted more fully. After declaring that Taiwan is without sovereignty, Powell added, "and that remains our policy, our firm policy." In other words, what he said was not a statement of fact but of U.S. policy. From the end of World War II until 1979, there was an American...
...least Liberty shareholders would enjoy that ride. News shareholders might do well too--but it's family control that is foremost in everyone's mind.

If the PC is in the den but you want to see your shows on the living room TV, try Linksys' Media Center Extender ($300; linksys.com) which lets your computer broadcast to another screen...
In "How to Break the Political Fever" [Nov. 1], Garrison Keillor offered recommendations on how to handle the postelection blues if your candidate loses, like taking a hike and rediscovering "the plain pleasures of the physical world." I enjoy Keillor's writing and would find myself politically on his side in the blue buffer that protects America's fervent red heart. Unfortunately, though, his advice is limited by geography. Thousands of dead Iraqi civilians certainly can't heed it. Whole schools of children in Iraq are too frightened of being kidnapped to venture outdoors. There...
