...Overall, the pairing seems to be a good one. Palm is bringing some of the warmth of the Palm OS to the coldly businesslike Windows Mobile platform, and getting a ride to the top of the corporate ladder in the process. My guess is that Palm will sell plenty of these, and that Microsoft will be happy about it. That is, unless they don't get into the legal mire that Research In Motion's BlackBerry has been in for a while - in mid December, mobile e-mail software developer Visto sued Microsoft for patent violations, particularly pertaining to Windows...
Daniel deserves a chance to improve, though, if only for its ambition. No, its Westchester-liberal milieu is not representative of all American Christians, but guess what? No Christian denomination is, and it is insulting to assume that an audience won't understand that. Red staters watch Desperate Housewives; law-abiding citizens follow The Sopranos. Some deeply devout Christians may be put off (though the fact that the guy with the family troubles is a liberal may reaffirm their beliefs). Some secularists may not like all the God talk. But what should matter to most is whether Daniel...
...newcomer, Rutherford stood at the periphery of SCLC's most private drama. He saw the swirling, teasing flirtations of its inner circle, and he discouraged prurient speculation about the link between Coretta's regal suffering and King's pursuits elsewhere.

King's formidable armor wore down in midlife, draining assurance from his glib mantra as a young scholar that many great men of religion had been obsessed with sex--St. Augustine, St. Paul, Martin...
...Well, I don't know. I just finished this one. I know the next thing won't be this long. It's not going to be another three volumes, but my guess is it's going to grow out of it. It's been such a profound education for me to live with this for almost 24 years, that there is a lot there and I hope to wrestle with some of the themes. Maybe not some of the people, but some of the ideas in it. But I want to get back to books that only take a year...
...agreement impossible. One feels that Russia seeks frustrating the deal for some duration. Actually, Konstantin Kosachev, Chair of the Duma's Foreign Relations Committee, put it succinctly when he said the other day that no deal would be reached before Ukraine has its parliamentary election in March. I guess Mr. Kosachev knows what he is talking about. Hence, all the hysteria that Russia is whipping up, making the talks so public. Even with Georgia, with which the relations are way more strained, the gas talks have been held quietly-and the price is two times less...
