...Maybe so, but proving it has been difficult. Those who develop DVT are likely to have a predisposition to it (see box), and the condition itself can be virtually impossible to track. Minor cases may produce no symptoms, while major complications such as pulmonary embolisms can show up weeks after the initial clotting. Immobility may certainly play a role, but to some experts the idea of a special link between aircraft and thrombosis simply isn't plausible: last year in Britain, a House of Lords report focusing on air travel and health issues tied DVT to sitting in a variety...
...things, coming from this place. If you listen to ABBA and Ace of Base, it's always sort of melancholy. I love the stuff Sting does, because he also has that feeling in his music. I actually think it's easier to write a beautiful melody in minor than in major. A happy song is great, but I think the songs you remember are when you're sad. It's not that I'm a sad person.

...those that establish an ineffable sonic lineament that's distinctive yet uniform across the range of the album.

While his instrumental work is generally uncomplicated, it's marked by the same unique style of melodic progressions that stamps his Chili Peppers work (the coda of "Around the World," on the recent Californication is a good example, as is the opening melody...
...slowly Hessler comes to realize that compared with the turmoil of the past 60 years--war, revolution, a famine that killed 30 million, the Cultural Revolution and the recent opening to the outside world--the disruption of the dam is relatively minor from the Chinese perspective. And he sees that the quaint old houses built on the cobbled streets leading up from the Yangtze--the structures Western tourists like to photograph--are in fact dirty, cramped and without running water or toilets. Many Chinese prefer to move to the industrial new towns built in all their tasteless utility. Writes Hessler...
