...dream of mountains. Mountain air is like none other, dry and thin, it crackles with energy. Like pure water, this cool air is hypotonic. With each breath, impurities and particulates, the shellac of concerns and obligations, leech out of my lungs and are expelled into the cool wind. I dream of freedom...

...graceful, toe-tapping tune that that skips along as lightly as a stone across a pond. Next he flowed into the goodhearted song "Diz Que Fui Por Ai"; during the instrumental break, he couldn't resist dancing around his stool as his guitarists carried the melody. It was pure enchantment; not just Brazilian music at its best, but art at its finest as well. Melodia's set carried a heavy burden of soul but managed to nonetheless be light on its feet.

Visually eclectic and alternately jarring and sentimental, it jump-cuts energetically among three stories.

...been thinking about Ashcroft for nearly a month, but a senior Bush official told TIME.com on Saturday that the more moderate the Cabinet became last week, the more sense it made to mollify conservatives in one fell swoop. Democrats will concentrate their fire on the Missouri Republican, whose almost-pure brand of conservatism guarantees a sea change at the Department of Justice. But barring a surprise, even Democrats expect Ashcroft will be confirmed...
