...strand a band in the desert with a couple of amps, some lighting rigs, and a few carnivorous land animals? The Killers’ latest video for their new single “Human,” of course. Despite the rather random concept of this short (a mix of Discovery Channel and Siegfried and Roy), the stark setting and lack of narrative definitely highlights their most obvious talent—live performance. And those who have followed this group since their formative days of indie hair and the bejeweled synthesizer will appreciate the simplicity in technique that evokes nostalgia...

...born to affluence that might have been expected to inoculate him against the glint of gold, hardly seems immune himself. Five weeks before his speech to the Conservative conference, he had enjoyed the hospitality of Rothschild, an old university chum, in Corfu and attended, with Mandelson and a heady mix of the powerful and the outrageously loaded, Elisabeth Murdoch's 40th birthday dinner on the island.

But then again, most people don't have an ear like Pittsburgh native Gregg Gillis, better known as the one-man band, Girl Talk. The musical misfit and laptop magician broke into the mainstream with his 2006 hit album Night Ripper, whose 16 tracks sampled more than 150 artists, from Abba to 2 Live Crew to Aerosmith. His latest album, Feed the Animals, is already available online; the CD is out November 3rd. TIME spoke...

...ground in Bala Beluk, the trainers see a more pressing reason to have embedded mentors: preventing the newly trained police from backsliding into old practices, and protecting them from corrupt officials who are threatened by clean cops. They compare Bala Beluk to 1970s New York City, with its toxic mix of gang warfare, corruption, organized crime and drug commerce. Khodaydad, they say, is an Afghan Frank Serpico, the cop who exposed systematic and widespread corruption within the city's police ranks, and was shot by heroin dealers in what was thought to have been a hit organized by corrupt colleagues...
