...answer lay in the violence that shook East Java Tuesday, as marauding mobs of Wahid supporters trashed GOLKAR offices and even a church. But despite the rage of those who are taking to the streets for Wahid, there is considerable doubt over whether the president can rouse the tens, or even hundreds of thousands, of supporters it may take to tip the scales back in favor of the ailing, half-blind president. And the military is unlikely to tolerate much by way of unrest in the capital, even if Wahid's supporters manage to vent their rage in the provinces...
...week: an election that seemed to grip the attention of a whole nation. Voter turnout was so unexpectedly high - more than 80% of those entitled to cast a ballot did so - that the authorities were unable to cope with the crowds, some of whom wrecked polling stations in their rage. Filipinos, too, have behaved of late as if politics still matters - maybe too much so.

Davis' stepmother Phyllis thought this was "just like any other" teen-romance drama and assumed that "just like everybody else, he'd get over it." He didn't. He was besotted with Bishop but didn't trust her. He started sleeping just a few hours a night. His grades fell from...
Walker is an ally of Sharpton's, but he is also a credible voice--an influential Baptist leader who once served as King's chief of staff. His rage stems from an incident in January, when Jackson, freshly stung by the scandal, was trying to escape the sabbatical from public life he had promised to take. His strategy: organize rallies that would make it appear that the black masses were clamoring for his return. Jackson asked Walker if Canaan was available and Walker said yes, but only for a "service of penance" during which Jackson would make a public apology...
