...Democrats were dragged along on this adventure, carrying suspicions that it was, at bottom, equal parts political enterprise concocted by Rove, ideological enterprise concocted by utopian neoconservatives, and family psychodrama--young Bush avenging and one-upping his old man. There was, as always, a congenital distrust of all things martial among the "Democratic wing of the Democratic Party," as Howard Dean would say.

To outwit the Agents and Sentinels, you will have to brush up on your driving skills, Grand Theft Auto--style. You might also want to learn to hack. At one point in the game, you're faced with a green computer screen, a blinking DOS prompt and no instructions on how to proceed. Perry says he wants players to be staring slack-jawed at the screen--just as Neo was when he received his "knock, knock...

...trade of an entire region, nearly bankrupted airlines and spread panic through some of the world's largest countries has largely passed the U.S. by. Hospitals and schools were shut down last week in Beijing, thousands of people were put under quarantine, and rumors flew through the capital that martial law was about to be imposed. But in the U.S., only about 40 people are believed to have severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS.
