...Montenegro has a long way to go in other respects, too. Crumbling roads make it difficult to reach some of the more attractive destinations. Raw sewage flows from Kotor and Tivat into the Bay of Kotor, and there are daily power outages. Still, the tiny country has achieved a good deal in a short time. Less than a decade ago, NATO warplanes were bombing targets in Montenegro in the campaign to drive Milosevic out of Kosovo. And now? Budva's "Jaz" beach hosted the Rolling Stones last summer and in September will stage part of Madonna's 50th birthday tour...
...gangs of mice and roaches commandeering the pantry. These are indeed serious problems, but according to the CSPI report, consumers should be more concerned with the risk of unclean food contact or prep surfaces (26% of restaurants committed this violation), which can allow for dangerous cross-contamination between, say, raw meat and fruit. Another big problem: improper holding temperatures (22% of restaurants kept food either not hot enough or not cold enough), which can potentially lead to bacteria festering in poorly cooked food. Inadequate hand-washing accounted for 16% of the violations recorded, putting diners at risk for contagion...
...Meanwhile, if Hillary Clinton's feelings are still bruised, her husband's are positively raw.

"It's personal with him, in terms of his own legacy," says a friend of Bill Clinton's. "And the race stuff really left a bad taste...
...cohort of bratty youngsters convinced of their own exceptional purity, and so a dozen years after the rock-'n'-roll youthquake, punk music appeared -- crude, youthful, exuberant, sullenly anarchic, objectionable to grownups. In the late '80s, as go-go prosperity ebbed and post-Reagan enervation set in, yet another raw, out-with-the-old rock paradigm arrived on schedule: the astringent musical and emotional impulse driving alternative bands strikingly resembles that of the Clash in 1977 or, even more, the Who in 1964. As before, the music tends to be willfully coarse and loud, tough for anyone over...
...means he's worried about an inflationary spiral in which manufacturers of industrial and consumer goods raise prices to compensate for higher costs - and workers demand hefty pay increases so they can afford the rising cost of their household purchases. The risk is very real. Soaring prices for oil, raw materials and food have taken a heavy toll on Europe's inflation rate, which hit 4% in June - more than double what it was a year...
