...their new video “When You Were Young,” Las Vegas quartet The Killers reincarnate the classic music video melodrama of boy meets, cheats on, and loses girl. This time however, grainy, sepia-toned footage tells us we’re in Mexico. The familiar saga gets a Tijuana re-telling: sweaty, mustached older greaseball takes advantage of 14-year-old future nun, sleeps with some other chick in a tube top, then somehow convinces no-longer-virginal schoolgirl to…come and work in his bar?

Today, after almost a quarter-century of secession from the world at large, Burma resembles nothing so much as a cob-webbed attic cluttered with sepia-toned relics, moth-eaten keepsakes and old curiosities. Along the capital's streets, there are no high-rises, no nightclubs, no neon signs; even Coca-Cola is unknown here. At the offices of Burma Airways, as in every other office, there are no typewriters, let alone computer terminals, just bulky Dickensian ledgers thick with dust. The country boasts two TV stations, but neither of them broadcasts...
