...leaders whose faces reveal as much as their résumés. Bill Clinton's image as affable rascal is partly due to his having the twinkly look of a man who enjoys his indulgences. He even sprouted a bit of a drinker's nose despite the fact that, by all accounts, he has no taste for the stuff. In this case, form seems to want to follow function...

...relative conservatism of this song portrays grime as an evolving genre of its own, yet still indebted to hip-hop. That said, the performances are for the most part impressive and novel. Although grime has its roots in hip-hop, I would not be surprised if musicians like Dizzee Rascal (probably the most famous grime artist) continue to take this music far beyond the scope of contemporary rap. It is only a matter of time before some enterprising American producer waters down this sound and into a massive chart hit for a faceless dance-pop act, thereby blowing...

...maybe it’s because, under 21 and without a fake ID, I miss out on the $12 Keystone taps that the rest of the aging hipster white-boys in the room get to clutch while bobbing their heads and making awkward motions with their hands at Dizzee Rascal shows. Either way, for the most part, count me out.Abe: But OMG Henry I totally went to this one Medeski Martin and Wood concert and they were totally improvising and also I saw the Dead and Phish and they made this really long jam where they covered a Will Smith...

...Oklahoma, though more rascal than scoundrel, as personified by boyish Coach Barry Switzer, 48, who might answer to Barry Spritzer. "I'm getting too old to have a good time," he worried. "I didn't make All-Hospitality Room this year." As mussed and professorial as Paterno looks, that's how slick and worldly Switzer appears. His teams are frequently referred to as "loose," a code word for undisciplined. Paterno has accomplished one of the rarest feats in sports: replacing a legendary coach, Rip Engle (whom he served as an assistant for 16 years), and becoming a larger legend. Switzer...
