...Kingston appears, neatly dressed, true to his clean-cut image. The cheerful, cute lyrics surprisingly tell the somber story of a long lost love. The clubbers and sidemen swing along as Kingston sings: “Why’d you have to go-oh?” Scenes flash between a club stage and the streets where Kingston entertains not just one, but fifteen girls dressed in the same modest outfit. A splitscreen view reveals several Kingstons simultaneously macking, and he walks arm-in-arm with his ever-changing girlfriends around town. The multiple panels reinforce how much happiness...
...case of Don Siegelman, the Democratic former Governor of Alabama who was convicted last year on corruption charges, has become a flash point in the debate over the politicization of the Bush Administration's Justice Department. Forty-four former state attorneys general--Republicans and Democrats--have cited "irregularities" in the investigation and prosecution, saying they "call into question the basic fairness that is the linchpin of our system of justice." The Department of Justice and the U.S. Attorney's office strongly deny that politics played any part in Siegelman's prosecution. They say the former Governor, who recently began serving...

And totally shocked when, somehow, the Metsies suddenly got good and won the World Series in 1969. There was another flash in the 1980s, though the 1986 World Series victory seemed more attributable to the rapacious karma of the vanquished Red Sox. Several hopeful seasons followed, but eventually the Mets fell back into their hammock of despond, a team that rarely tested the limits of mediocrity. My love persisted, unquenched...
...nativist time like ours, it's hard to imagine a national effort so peopled by foreigners--German expat Wernher von Braun building our rockets, New Zealand immigrant William Pickering heading our unmanned program. In a time of flash-paper attention spans, it's similarly hard to picture any agency surviving the setbacks NASA did. Ranger 7 was the first unmanned U.S. ship to land on the moon--following the sequential failures of Rangers1 through 6. Think that program would make it as far as Ranger4 today...
