...archaeology professor father and school-librarian mother, Judge grew up amid the grim sprawl of '70s Albuquerque, New Mexico. After college he sampled and ultimately rejected a number of jobs as an electrical engineer before devoting his energies to playing bass in various blues-rock bands.

Since a tentative peace was signed in August, Russian troops have almost entirely pulled out from Chechnya, leaving the republic, which has serious secessionist ambitions, essentially to its own devices. Tuesday's shooting serves as a grim reminder that although war is over, the killing is still going...
