...Leonardo DiCaprio and this week reveals the carnivorous appetites of 'N Sync., says, "I hate scatological humor, but I don't mind writing about it if it serves a higher purpose." Hmmm. The equally versatile Ratnesar, who within the past year has covered George W. Bush, Chinese espionage and Kosovar refugees, also has a second story in this issue. "The Faces of India's Future" profiles four brave individuals who are working to change India.

They equally support America's blank check security guarantee to Taiwan. Both have come out in support of NATO's expansion. McCain has spoken in favor of the Bosnian and Kosovar campaigns while Bush one-ups him with his vague promises to lend "support" to "the Baltics, the Caucasus Central Asia and the Ukraine" by "promoting regional peace."
