...Kinkel's favorite CD, Nevermind, by Nirvana: "Death/ With violence/ Excitement/ Right here/ Died/ Go to hell ... Take a chance/ Dead." It's not completely clear what Kurt Cobain had in mind with these lyrics, but they are lush with nihilism. Luke Woodham listened to goth rocker Marilyn Manson, and Mitchell Johnson to rapper Tupac Shakur. One doesn't have to support censoring any of these artists to see that hurt, isolated kids may not understand any intended symbolism...
Turns out the truth is more complicated. Dr. JoAnn Manson, an endocrinologist at Harvard Medical School, cites growing evidence that refined carbohydrates could indeed pose a problem for some people who are prone to diabetes. But, according to her 1997 study of 65,000 nurses, the greatest danger occurs only if those at risk also fail to consume enough whole grains like whole-wheat bread and rolled oats. Reason: cereal fiber has a counterbalancing effect that keeps insulin levels from rising...

...past, complete with eccentric uncles, country cousins and prodigal sons and daughters--different from one another, but still kin. Somewhere in the noisy postmodern collages of Beck one can find echoes of Irving Berlin. Though Chuck Berry may roll over when he hears it, devil-rocker Marilyn Manson counts among his musical offspring. Whether he likes it or not, Puff Daddy's pop hip-hop is a direct descendant of Hammer's Las Vegas-style rap. The Spice Girls may not be the apex of musical evolution, but they do have their links to Cole Porter. It is in this...
Version 2.0 is not without faults: some of the melodies are weak, and the production is, at times, overbearing. Still, the band is headed in the right direction. "We're very aware of how treacherous the music industry is, particularly nowadays," says Manson. "The industry doesn't want to encourage fan loyalty over the long term, they just want a quick hit." That isn't always the rule, of course: the Dave Matthews Band's uneven new CD, Before These Crowded Streets, just debuted atop the Billboard charts, helped by a loyal fan following established through constant, Grateful Dead-like...
