...icon, from under a motorcycle helmet. ?I thought we were right on time.? It was noon, five hours before the start of 48th Annual Grammy Awards telecast, and Stone sat, placidly, in the trailer car of a stretch purple motorcycle in the parking lot of a Beverly Hills mini-mall. Several hours later, the man known as the J.D. Salinger of funk emerged onstage at the Staples Center in Los Angeles for his first live performance since...
...security guards and bare-bones electrical and heating costs. Assorted stakeholders-federal and local government officials, potential private developers and landmark preservation activists-squabble periodically about what should become of the vacant building. Among the proposals bandied about over the past ten years but never acted upon: a shopping mall, hotel, restaurants, condos, even a water park...

Most striking is the glass Oval Lingotto, which will...

From small efforts to build ethanol and biodiesel vehicles to completely altering America’s fleet of 200 million automobiles to run on hydrogen, curbing global warming will take dramatic action, not just dramatic rhetoric. A first step is a dollar tax on gasoline, an approach that has been derided by corporate America. Tonight, I can no longer allow the destruction of our world to go unchecked in the interest of ExxonMobil’s $36 billion...
