...note, only three children, a wife and a grand business that depended utterly on his existence. The police have ruled Loiseau's death, at age 52, a suicide. But in France, the killer is considered still at large. Last week, Loiseau's fellow chefs accused the guidebooks of murder. "Bravo, GaultMillau, you have won," declared Paul Bocuse, the famous dean of French chefs. Bocuse, who spoke to Loiseau the day before he killed himself, says his friend had been deeply affected by the rankings demotion and by newspaper articles speculating that he might lose one of his three Michelin stars...
...patient. If he doesn’t like something, he tells you immediately. Exhibit A: the hypnotic “Wanksta,” a bonus cut also featured on the wildly successful 8 Mile soundtrack. Chock-full of thinly veiled jabs at Ja Rule and his label Murder, Inc., “Wanksta” is the latest opus in a complex longtime feud that involves stealing, stabbing, and four stitches.

German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, meanwhile, rode to victory in September’s national election on an anti-war platform, and he has insisted that he will not support military action to topple the Iraqi regime. Those hoping France and Germany would be swayed by Secretary of State Colin Powell?...
...case unfolds, clues lead the pair to Zoganji, an abandoned mountain temple near the scene of the murder under investigation. This is where the film's different strands come together. In addition to evidence revealing the real killer's identity, the temple houses an icon of the fearsome Buddhist deity Acala, who "cuts away human weakness," punishing and redeeming at the same time. Fittingly, it is at Zoganji that Nango, addressing the murderer, delivers the film's message: "Dying settles nothing. Living is the only way we have to settle anything. That's how we atone...
