...longer passive, models provide their own narration like Veronica Read or, like Yokomizo's Strangers, decide how they'll be depicted. And processes and mechanical aids once hidden behind the Romantic image of the artist are now deliberately exposed and documented. David Batchelor's The Spectrum of Brick Lane, a tower of light boxes, reveals its naked anatomy of trailing wires and reused components, echoing the untidy aspects of a built-up area as well as its brash artificial sources of color. Another theme Nesbitt detects is art that "invites a direct encounter," like Jim Lambie's jazzy floor...
Following a timeout, senior point guard Elliott Prasse-Freeman inbounded the ball to Merchant, who was instantly trapped. Merchant kicked the ball back to Prasse-Freeman, who drove into the lane and put up an off-balance shot that caught the backboard and the rim but would not fall...
...more they drive, the bigger their car, the closer to rush hour, the higher the price. For half a century, economists and engineers have insisted that this strategy - "congestion charging" - is the best and fairest way to reduce traffic. But driving and rationality do not always share the same lane. For just as many years, politicians have instead tried cajoling drivers out of their cars - providing better public transport, tax incentives, free bikes - with little to show for it.

There are at least a dozen more clubs and bars clustered in the lane, catering to most music tastes; one of the best is the funk-tastic Tapas, (662) 234 4737. Stargazers should head to the Greyhound Caf? in The Empori-um, which resounds with the gossipy banter of soap-opera divas, pop stars and actress-models-despite signs designating areas in which...
