...Barbra Streisand Earlier in the year she was the most visible partner in the love affair between Hollywood and Washington: she sang for Bill Clinton, she dined with Janet Reno, she buddied up to Colin Powell. Somewhere along the line, Streisand shifted gears from Political Animal to Very-Well-Paid Vegas Casino Act, making two multimillion-dollar New Year's appearances at MGM's Grand...
...beautiful and decorous, and put it on the Mall in Washington, which has heretofore been reserved for stone commemorations of American goodness (George Washington, Abraham Lincoln) and American tragedy (Vietnam). And it's hard to imagine a more successful job of it than that managed by architect Freed, a partner of I.M. Pei's. With its exhibits designed by Ralph Appelbaum, Freed's museum is neither a pious, too-easy-to-take abstraction nor a meretriciously Disneyesque Auschwitz-land; rather it is a craftsmanlike, thoughtful and powerfully disturbing hybrid of both, a ghastly but never wholly literal evocation...
...splendid attempt in the San Diego exurb of Escondido to give a few impoverished families homes, all the more heartening. The project shows that low-income housing need not be dreary or demeaning: this is a lively and dignified piece of tightly woven architecture.

The resulting tension has illuminated an unfortunate reality: the time is not yet ripe for Turkey to join the EU.The majority...
...With his partner, Dr. Anne Goldfeld, a Harvard biomedical researcher, and American Brian Heidel, Sok formed the CHC on a shoestring in 1994, two years after he was repatriated to Cambodia from the refugee camps. From the start, their target was TB. The disease takes an estimated 2 million lives a year globally, and Cambodia has one of the highest rates in the world, 508 cases per 100,000 people. The tragedy of TB is that it can be cured with a six-to-eight-month series of daily antibiotics, but interrupted treatment can lead to the rise of multi...
