...rockabilly-and-indie-loving DJ. If the bar has a familiar ring to it, that's because, like Pet Sounds Records down the road, Skanegatan 53, tel: (46-8) 702 97 98; www.petsounds.se/web/, it was named after the classic 1966 Beach Boys album. Musicians from far and wide flock to the store, but the most prolific customer? That'd be filmmaker Quentin Tarantino.

...size of Akinola's flock, which far outstrips England's in terms of Sunday attendance, has made him a natural leader to robust and conservative Anglican bodies throughout Africa, Latin America and Asia (known as the Global South). Long seen as Western Anglicanism's missionary stepchild, the South has eclipsed it in energy and size, and yearns for corresponding clout.
