Unlike in Iowa, this caucus showed a cross-section of the new America: valets, chefs, croupiers, waiters, maids - all of whom made me realize how much easier it would be if every event I covered was attended only by people wearing name tags and uniforms signifying their occupations. And unlike in Iowa, these people were rowdier than kids at a pep rally before the game against their rival Texas football team. They screamed and chanted and - since this is Vegas and the ballroom had a stage - jumped up there to dance, chant and fake fight with each other. "This...
...mecca for the moneyed international community - a personal shopping service allows globe-trotting customers to order a six-figure wardrobe with one phone call or arrange to have their yacht spruced up in 24 hours with a single e-mail. At Selfridges department store, a new one-stop luxury section called the Wonder Room brings together the classics - Chanel watches, Tiffany silverware, Hermès scarves - with more audacious items like the gold-plated, diamond-encrusted Vertu phone decorated with a ruby snake and costing $370,000, the price of a one-bedroom apartment in South London. Catering to foreign...
This week's cover package, the Science of Romance, our annual Mind/Body special section, continues that tradition of digging into complicated areas that reveal not only rich science but science that relates to our readers in meaningful ways.

Norman Mailer and Kurt Vonnegut left us with wonderful literature, Luciano Pavarotti and Beverly Sills left us with the magic of music, and Anna Nicole Smith left us with ... what exactly? She might have been a so-called notable personality, but only because the media swarmed around her, waiting for her to do more and more ridiculous things. She became a bigger-than-life caricature of herself, a real-life burlesque act because of the media. She should...
...state-owned or state-controlled video providers; clips that contain violence or sex or are considered "detrimental to the nation's security" will be deleted immediately. The regulation mainly targets content uploaded by amateurs; experts believe TV and film clips will largely remain untouched. But the most controversial section of the new regulations - that all the video providers have to be state-owned or state-controlled - would almost certainly put the future of online providers like Tudou and competitors Youku.com and 56.com in question, as well as threaten Chinese web portals with video sharing features like Sina.com...
