...Themed holiday villages don't always work, but Desa Seni-located amid rice farms in Canggu, a corner of Bali known for its bucolic tranquility-isn't as contrived as you would expect. Founders Howard Klein and Tom Talucci have lived in Indonesia for over 10 years, and have traveled its islands extensively. The insights they have garnered, as well as their evident good taste, lend the resort an unaffected charm. "We always wondered why no one replicated what it's like to live a village lifestyle," says Klein, before laughingly admitting that having 80 satellite-TV channels in every...

Australian Prime Minister John Howard said of the rebel leader, "His continued activities are a threat to the security of East Timor, and it is preferable that that threat be neutralized. The objective is to take him into custody and that is an objective we will go on pursuing...

Since the FCC only regulates the content on “free-to-air” radio, listeners have the illusion that satellite radio, with Howard Stern as its icon, is more edgy than local radio. But other than the notoriously vulgar Stern, the bulk of satellite radio’s content is as bland and commercialized as the music in the Gap. Satellite service is embraced as the future of radio because it is new technology...
