...first 90 piquant seconds of Gedida, infused with Mediterranean motifs, Egyptian strings, bittersweet melody and digitized beats, cause forgotten limbs to tap, twiddle, turn and trot. Atlas, an Egyptian-Palestinain-half-Muslim-half-Jewish-singer-belly-dancer, Brussels-born and U.K.-raised, has performed in London with Jah Wobble, the club fusion outlet Transglobal Underground and in Page and Plant's 1998 European Tour. Gedida is her third album. And perhaps, enough. Atlas' climactic introduction is just a prelude to ten long, indistinguishable tracks. Gedida has everything--hip hop, London dance beats, samplings from Rob Base & E-Z Rock, industrial...

On a satellite phone, Jones chatted with his wife, who spent most of her time at mission control at Geneva's Cointrin Airport, which was manned around the clock by a meteorologist and an air-traffic controller. Piccard's wife Michele preferred...
...Quixote. Love, passion and romance are often a welcomed component of aesthetic appreciation. From sketchy Italian men to vast Mediterranean beaches, falling in love (or at least dreaming about it) is an integral part of a heightened attention to the quality of life. From Pablo Neruda to Saavedra Miguel de Cervantes, romance has often sparked personal revelation...
...Pentagon has already given it a name--Operation Joint Guardian. It would probably begin by sending in the Marines. More than 2,000 leathernecks now on ships floating in the Mediterranean would be the first wave to chopper into Kosovo. They'd be part of a 4,000-strong U.S. presence in a NATO peacekeeping force of 28,000. Red lines are even being drawn on maps. American G.I.s would control a sector of Kosovo.
