But, says Pierre Azzam, regional director in Dubai of the advertising agency Impact-BBDO, ads on al-Jazeera seem to have dropped since the 2003 Iraq invasion because of political sensitivities--a claim that al-Jazeera denies. Nonetheless, anticipating commercial resistance to the English channel, Parsons is offering...

After World War II the great names of prewar manufacture, including some that were tainted by cordial service to Hitler and Mussolini, came back with cars that were shorter, lower to the ground and faster. These include the two-seat 1950 Jaguar XK120, a mass-production car that was capable of going 130 m.p.h., faster than many prewar racers. But the ultimate examples were the Ferraris. With their enameled red surfaces, their voluptuous lines and their plain debt to jet- aircraft styling, they practically say "Lick me." In a show that's pure ice cream, you may be tempted...
