...Kim Leevers and her four siblings all had their own ideas about the type of funeral they wanted for their mother, June, who died of cancer a few months ago. But on at least one point they were unanimous: the service would have no religious content. Even years ago, when the children were attending Sunday school, Leevers sensed her mother was less than devout: "She used just to drop us and leave." So on her passing they chose Sydney celebrant John Hill to conduct the service, which featured speeches from June's two sons, a song from...
...Labor thought it had the election in its pocket. Kim Beazley did not release the bulk of his policies until the official campaign. This approach, which has become known as the "small-target" strategy, had worked before. It is identical to the one that Howard employed in 1996 to win office.

...Team America: World Police. It's only that none has ever been placed in hands as deviantly deft as those of South Park malefactors Trey Parker and Matt Stone. A crew of superhero marionettes (the old-fashioned kind) faces off against wmd-hoarding, four-letter-wording North Korean leader Kim Jong Il. Some have already attacked the film for mocking the war on terrorism. But given the correctly impolitic attitudes of Parker and Stone, count on both left and right wings getting clipped. The trailer ballyhoos star names: "Alec Baldwin! ... Susan Sarandon! ... George W. Bush!" Then: "Are all going...
