...Notorious B.I.G., a.k.a. Biggie Smalls, a.k.a. Christopher Wallace, was living large. Life was sweet, good, like something out of a song. Here he was, all 6 ft. 3 in. and 300-some pounds of him, grown up and successful. Back in the day, he had been just another fat kid, a no-account who couldn't get girls, couldn't finish high school, slinging crack for near nothing on a street corner in Brooklyn. Then he discovered gangsta rap. His first album, Ready to Die, sold more than a million copies, and his follow-up, Life After Death, scheduled...
...gangsta rap song. More than 1,700 people crowded into the Peterson Automotive Museum, where the party was being held, and the crush was too much. Around midnight the fire marshal ordered the festivities shut down. Wallace went to his truck.

Or they postured like chickens but engaged in the distinctive three-note quail song. After much trial and error, Balaban--an amateur baroque musician who sometimes serenaded his chicks with his lute to stimulate their singing--traced the movements and sounds to two very different areas in the brain. "That's new. That's interesting," says Caltech neurobiologist Masakazu Konishi. "It means posture and sound that usually occur together in crowing...
...time for male virgins to stand up for themselves and use their status as a measure of strength, not as a foible. In a culture that is rife with images of sex in advertisement, song, art and sport, it is difficult for male virgins to view their virginity as anything but a negative. But they must view virginity as positive, else they will rush into the sexual act because of pressure, not because of love, curiosity, or genuine interest...
