...worried that we'd be met with similar small acts of sabotage. TIME: You still consider yourself a Catholic? Mullan: My mother handed over my soul when I was two weeks old, and they educated me until I was 18. I don't want them getting off the hook with this idea that he's just a lapsed, he's not really one of us anymore. The church helped shape...

...first place, George H.W. Bush does not voluntarily tell his son George W. Bush what he should do on Iraq or anything else more profound than a dockside suggestion like "Try this new lure to hook the stripers." The father would consider it an insult to his son's abilities.

Ashanti is smart enough to let the hook do the bulk of the work while her smooth voice flutters around creating a sense of longing. In a thin field, it's summer's best tortured ballad. Without Me is another chapter in Eminem's romance with himself. While a woolly sax laughs in the background...

...occasional sinister theme runs through his panorama of life in the South. A lone axe has been laid down on a barbecue, a gun hangs from a hook. A sign reads "No Loitering Allowed." A man peering from a car window looks like an escaping murderer; another lies face down on the concrete floor of a garage. Eggleston finds beauty in odd things such as the ceremonies of eating, turning salt shakers and ketchup bottles into family groups and exploring the contents of a freezer in 1971 (Frosty Acres Tasty Taters). From mountain majesties to frozen fries, this...
