Most deaths of 23-year-olds are pointless tragedies, which does not stop us from asking why they die. Giuliani lost his life through a witch's combination of rage, fear, panic, idealism and devil-may-care. He was on the streets of the port city because eight world leaders, including President George W. Bush and Russian President Vladimir Putin, were also there for their annual gabfest. Safely sequestered in a medieval palace a mile from the Piazza Alimonda, the issues they talked about--such as a possible world recession and global warming--were overshadowed by the mayhem.

...just three years Benveniste built an army of more than 30,000 kids who distribute swag to their pals in what he calls "hand-to-hand promotion." Clients included Rage Against the Machine, Radiohead and Limp Bizkit. Next: hip-hop, electronics, films, fashion and, perhaps someday, even politics.
