Half the subjects watched Taxi exactly as it aired in syndication back in 2005. The commercials included a mix of cheesy local New York City advertisements for places like the Jewelry Factory and the law office of Michael Brownstein, as well as network promos for shows like Geraldo, The Simpsons, and Inside Edition. The other half watched Taxi without any commercials. Those who watched the show with interruptions reported statistically significant higher levels of enjoyment...
...Much of a Good Thing the problem with the tiger economies is that, four decades on, the spirit of Park Chung Hee is alive and well. While the mix of products may have changed from sneakers and stuffed toys to microchips and flat-panel TVs, the tigers remain heavily reliant upon exports to power growth. And like any addict, they're now experiencing the pain of rapid withdrawal as factories close and millions of workers across the region lose their jobs.

...Sunday," he needed to convert you. In the towering period that spanned The Joshua Tree to Zooropa, U2 made stadium-size art rock with huge melodies that allowed Bono to throw his arms around the world while bending its ear about social justice.

British designer Frank Andrew and his Swiss-born wife Ariane bought the farm and hamlet as a ruin in 2003. It lies in the verdant depths of Le Marche, a mostly rural region along the Adriatic that, with its mix of Renaissance treasures, rolling hills and architectural rusticity, is a savvy alternative to the more popular Tuscany. Borgo Tranquillo's owners have remade its buildings in an arrestingly Modernist style while still using the original, reconditioned stones and roof tiles. For rent are four apartments (from $940 a week) and a villa, each with a soaring interior accentuated by weathered...
