...lose every bit of their sanity and proceeded to loot, burn and murder innocent citizens. Why? I don't know, maybe someone does, but all we who do not know see is smoldering rubble, homeless people, and the corpses of those who were the sniper's prey. There is nothing more frightening than seeing what appeared to be a sane world turn into a grotesque horror picture. I am sad. I cannot even begin to describe how sad I am to see what has happened to my people. I will be proud to tell my children that...
...part of a great musical continuum. It relates both backwards to concerts that have come before and forward to performances that have yet to materialize.

"Once you go over there," he says, "you won't be middle-of-the-road. Bobby Kennedy and Fulbright...
...from U.N.C.L.E. but the glamour is a myth. Interpol never makes a pinch; it is merely the information broker that helps the world's police to help one another. The catch sounds small (some 2,000 arrests last year), but the effect is large. Interpol's prey is the big-time international crook-the jet-borne jewel thief or heroin smuggler who cannot be caught unless police spin a global...
