A series of audiocassettes obtained by TIME provides rare insight into their mind-set. In hours of sermons and "seminars," as they are called, leaders of Attawhid wal Jihad exhort their rank and file to slaughter Iraqis cooperating with the U.S. and the interim government. On one tape, a man named Sheik Abu Anas al-Shami, one of al-Zarqawi...

When powered by hybrid technologies that combine electricity with the internal-combustion engine, such light vehicles will produce enormous oil savings. Lovins proposes a nifty scheme of "feebates," which would reduce the consumer price of such energy-efficient cars while...

...dense with melodramatic passages such as "I wanted to say that no one could plug the hole in my heart, that it was lost, that it was lonely." Chun's characters aspire to be individuals but can hardly be distinguished from one another, and the author offers scant insight into what drives them, other than their erratic mood swings...
