...good album-many of its tracks are guaranteed to soon be scorching a dance floor near you. By the end, however, you wish that Busta would take it to another level beat-wise. For his next album, he should enlist the production talents of the definitive "brother from another planet," Tricky, wedding his lyrical creativity to the cutting-edge soundscapes he deserves...

Using computer simulations, University of Colorado scientists showed how a single moon can grow in this fashion. The researchers conducted 27 simulations which tracked up to 2,700 objects...
Soros' perspective from high atop Cash Mountain affords him a spectacular view for his societal vision. The irony is that the capitalist society that enabled him to accumulate such a disproportionate share of this planet's wealth is the root of the problem. If Soros wishes to identify the difficulties facing humanity, perhaps he ought to look in a mirror. PAUL AZZARIO Southampton, Bermuda...
