...hours, an hour, half an hour before show time, we dialled the Axis number. With half hope, half fear, we asked, "Hey man, you know the Basement Jaxx gig tonight? Is it cancelled?" Half hope because it was storming like a teledrama outside. And half fear because, we miss them now, and we miss the big bright bloomin' future of all house music for good. Armand would never have forgiven us. Neither would Thomas Bangalter, Jon Carter, Eric Morillo, Roger Sanchez, Danny Tenaglia, Pete Tong, Gilles Peterson, Ashley Beadle, Norman Jay or Phillippe Zdar. They've heard the boys...
...most original features of the decade. But an Alfred Hitchcock film this is not. Its tireless commitment to the most bleak form of realism, while admirable in this age of special effects-laden horror films, gives it the emotional depth of an episode of Unsolved Mysteries. The fear of the movie's characters is raw and brutal, but the fear of the audience members is dulled by the absence of any emotional involvement in the film.

Sadly, its infamous second-story bar that was perfect for scoping the floor for hotties is now located on the first floor. But fear not; Avalon is still home to excellent dance music and glamorous patrons. Wear black or the hippest clubbing attire and you can't go wrong...
...public opposition to Kosovo's independence puts Washington in line with its NATO European partners, who fear that creating any new states in the Balkans could spark more war; the objective of the Kosovo Liberation Army has been to join an independent Kosovo to the state of Albania, whose expansion is fiercely opposed by its neighbors in the Balkans. Some NATO members would feel stabbed in the back by such a reversal, particularly since accepting Kosovo's independence would also imply tacit acceptance of the ethnic cleansing of the territory's remaining Serb population (given the track record, there...
