Together, the two share an almost palpable trust; the bond between the policemen seems more durable than ties of family. One is strong where the other is weak, and together they make a match for any crime ring in California. The Glover-Gibson partnership is also solid in less serious ways. Glover is a straight man of sorts to a more irrepressible Gibson, but both men have perfect timing when delivering the insulting, constant repartee that masks the deep affection between the two. Gibson and Glover turn the cops' bad habit of saving serious conversations for the middle of serious...
That notion--of personalized content and advertising--has been a kind of Internet holy grail for years. Now, finally, the Web is delivering. Its tens of thousands of sites can match your needs and desires as quickly as your Pentium can get online. It's possible to get everything from custom newspapers to electronic newsletters that alert you to sales of items you've always craved.

Her brain was a table-of-contents mosh...
...Life in 1472, Dupri proves he can perform as well as produce--his rapping is relaxed but engaging. The CD's best cut is Sweetheart, Dupri's duet with Carey. Her lilting, soulful voice is a good match for his prodding raps. Much of the CD, however, is tainted with misogyny; the word bitch poisons many tracks. It's a relief when rapper Da Brat, on the war-between-the-sexes song, All That's Got to Go, shows up to defend women and fire shots at pushy "players...
