...taught himself to play on a right-handed guitar because it was cheaper than a model strung for left-handers (and this is how he still plays). A car crash in his early 20s ("we were road racing and I drove my car into a ravine") gave him the limp that he still walks with at 45; in his head are two drainage holes, covered merely by a thin layer of skin, bored during brain surgery, the legacy of another smash that almost killed him. He will sit and drink Scotch after Scotch with disconcerting ease and tell...
...41/2 years of majority rule, the AKP has to its credit several undeniable accomplishments. After years of political uncertainty that saw Turkey's economy limp from crisis to crisis, the party's economic reforms and fiscal discipline have fueled growth averaging 7% a year. It strengthened rights for the Kurdish minority and convinced the European Union to launch membership talks last year. Joost Lagendijk, a Dutch member of the European Parliament who chairs an E.U.-Turkey delegation, says the party "has done more for the modernization of Turkey than all the secular parties in previous years.

...little shaken, he finally established that about a month earlier he was standing in his office, having just come up a flight of stairs, when he felt a sudden pain and a bit of a pop in his right calf.

...clue that seconds later she would be prancing about with uniformed auto mechanics. Thus, Lesson One: surprise us. Music videos ought to have tricks. Songs are brief, and the audience should be riveted for all four minutes. Next, we see Wolf slouching along, creating weird body shapes with his limp form. On the other hand, adorable Björk charmed, unabashedly leaping about while wearing a dress like a lampshade. Lesson Two: hey there, rock star, kill your self-consciousness before it kills your charisma! Overall, Wolf’s video is badly timed, poorly conceived, and tiredly executed. Instead...
