...there is fine print. If the president has his way, these new workers won’t just get temporary green cards—they’ll be enticed by personal retirement funds set up for them courtesy of Dubya’s Congress. The only catch? The funds wouldn’t be accessible until the workers left the United States. Just as he invites immigrants to join America’s legal workforce, Bush would introduce hamhanded bribes to push them back out again. What’s more, an illegal worker who volunteered to join...
...American print media, addicted to celebrity and sensation, are anchorites compared to their avid brethren in Hong Kong. Fourteen local newspapers breathe down the necks of the S.A.R.?s movie, TV and music performers, sleuthing Nicholas Tse?s traffic citations, Maggie Cheung?s potential suitors and the cavorting of various pop-star Twins and Boy?z. Transcribing and translating all this for English-language HK hankerers is Saskatoon, Saskatchewan?s own Sanney Leung. With his ?staff of ten ... fingers,? Saint Sanney synopsizes the day?s gossip, provides links to HK news and reviews (including mine from TIME?s Asian edition...

...Samurai, evasive maneuvers began before the film was finished being shot. Every work print of the movie was encoded with a hidden marker so that it could be identified if it was leaked. Even the scripts had codes stamped across every page, each corresponding to the owner's name. Before sending Samurai to dubbing houses, Warner Bros. rendered the copies less piratable by going through every scene and editing out characters not relevant to the particular dubbing job--an exercise that took about three days per cassette. The studio did send out "screener" copies to Oscar voters--a high-risk...
Gonzalez got his copy of The Hulk from a buddy who worked at an ad firm that had received an early work print. He didn't have much interest in the movie, but he knew that if he put it online, the more-exclusive chat groups would let him pull down other, better films. "I don't like paying for movies," he says. So he digitized the VHS copy and then used basic editing software to block the "Property of Universal" crawl running across the screen, along with a serial number. Aware that what he was doing was wrong...
