PIERCING HEARTACHE There are lots of reasons to think twice about getting a body part pierced--not least of which is pain. But folks with congenital heart disease have an extra worry: for them, piercing raises the risk of developing a heart-valve infection. If you have congenital heart disease and can't resist a naval ring, be sure to ask for preventive antibiotics...

...sort of chiseling Milosevic does so well. But for the moment, the time had come to cut his losses. It had been easy to ride out the first 30 days of air strikes, when bad weather and alliance timidity limited the damage Serbia suffered. But "he was feeling the pain" in the second month, says a U.S. intelligence officer, as NATO racked up 350 attack sorties every 24 hours. Bombs and missiles had blitzed much of Serbia's heavy industry, energy sector and transport network. Citizen morale crumbled under water shortages and power outages as NATO hammered the country...

What can be done with Cheetah? Replace that nattering chimp with gorillas who are all too human. This is a film about parenting, about the pain and triumph of racial or social assimilation. Kala is a loving adoptive mother, her concern for the boy complicated by the loss of her own child and the knowledge that his difference, when he finally does understand it, may force him from her.

...always sounded like a toothless varmint, clawing the arms of a backwoods rocking chair and spitting out his views on love and politics as if they were gobs of rancid tobacco juice. But at 55, he has grown into the crabbiness of his voice, one that both feels pain and dishes it out. It perfectly suits the fables in this creepily beautiful CD, a sermon not from the mount but from the depths. Newman deserves to be cynical about everything but his supreme gift for telling stories in song...

...first-year, I don't think I understood the magnitude of that change. I had studied hard for four years in high school, and I had deferred life for a bit, postponing the usual adolescent sagas until there was something or someone really worth my love and my pain. It wasn't until I came to college that people finally bothered to lie to me, or bothered to entrust me with their private truths--to tell me anything that mattered to them, in fact. It wasn't until I came to college that I began caring about people enough...
