...spotlight on Lieberman illuminates a subtle tension in American Jewry that is often overlooked by the national media. Judaism is both an ethnicity and a religion, but the most prominent Jews in American life usually embody the former quality more than the latter. Jewish senators like Barbara Boxer or Charles E. Schumer '71 rarely quote from Chronicles, or any part of the Bible. Seinfeld, Kramer and Elaine never set foot in a synagogue. There are few rabbis or religious Jews who enter public debates with the forcefulness of Jerry Falwell or Cardinal O'Connor. But Lieberman is different: His most...
...State Madeleine Albright met North Korean foreign minister Paek Nam Sun at a conference in Bangkok. Paek told Albright he could say nothing about Kim's offer. American diplomats say either Kim never made the offer or he simply hadn't told Paek about his conversation with Putin. The latter is possible since U.S. officials believe that Paek is only a flunky; Kim runs the country's foreign policy...
...disappointed by the piece "the Invasion of the Saints" in your Mississippi River cover story.

You may no longer need a stentorian voice or mane of white hair to graduate to a seat in the American House of Lords, but a little gravitas, a bit of Olympian detachment or at least a few outsize personality quirks help. Hillary has the latter in spades and rock-star fame. And while Rudy Giuliani may have been too knee-in-the-groin nasty to attract all the anti-Hillary votes, the fresh-faced Lazio could be just too aw-shucks nice, a slice of Velveeta on white in a state with a decided taste...
...says Huff, 51, who grew up here, amid the willows, magnolias and antebellum homes. Natchez has always had its collection of eccentrics (an April Fools' Day Parade is in the works), and it has always had its share of the mentally ill. But it used to be that the latter were packed off forever to an institution far away and the police department could go back to its business of caring for just the eccentrics. But since deinstitutionalization of mental patients in the 1960s, when thousands were released from sometimes abusive institutions, they have become Chief Huff's business. When...
