...first camera I've tested that fills the bill. Indeed, it's the first Nikon camera to be engineered around the design, rather than the other way around. It's about the size and weight of a smooth-edged deck of cards, and its sleek blue-and-brushed-metal look really sets it apart from the pack. Call it the iPod of digital cameras, a comparison it deserves, not just for form and looks but also for its admirable ease...
SOiL’s major label debut, Scars, explodes from the Windy City with a hard-rock radio blend of melodic hooks and crunching riffs.

(About 28%, by value, of steel imported by the U.S. in 2001 came from the E.U.; Japan, Korea and Russia were also hit by the tariffs.) Even British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who never met an American President he didn...
