...Minister and his key officials have managed to make rude or politically incorrect remarks about everything from the euro to Islamic civilization. One of their baldest blunders came last week from Interior Minister Claudio Scajola, 54, who was pressured to resign after two newspaper reporters quoted him referring to Marco Biagi - a labor ministry adviser assassinated in March by the Red Brigades terrorist group - as a "pain in the ass." Scajola, under fire for not having provided Biagi with a security detail, suggested the victim had been interested only in extending his government consulting contract. Through a mixture of shrugs...
...physical or mental health. "Throughout history, surveillance has always started in piecemeal ways," says Simon Davies, director of Privacy International, a London-based watchdog group. "But once privacy is taken away, it is never returned. It becomes part of the infrastructure of surveillance and control." Also worried is Marco Cappato, an Italian Member of the European Parliament.

Now I was getting sleep, and eating a big breakfast every morning, and had time to read The New York Times at a leisurely pace. My longtime roommates—Ben, Joey, Marco, Ari W., Ari S., and Myu—actually saw me in our ridiculously large seven-person suite again. I worked out with Joey, and went running most days. I had time to write in my journal, time to go for walks, time to just be. It was really weird...
...Wild West” suffer from painfully annoying choruses that are repeated far too many times. Mos Def’s angry nasal rantings run incongruous to the downbeat trip-hop of Massive Attack on “I Against I,” and Danny Saber and Marco Beltrami’s “Theme From Blade” sounds suspiciously like the Mission: Impossible theme song...
