...WHAT TO LOOK FOR: Gamma Rays is unique because it gives us five strong female roles, full of stark honesty and without sexual stereotypes. Though it is a bizarre story (see title), it is one that the audience can relate to: girl finds solace and escape from reality in her books and studies. Sound familiar to anyone...

While there are a few unresolved monkeys on McCain?s back, including the pesky abortion issue, his generally clear-cut positions stand in stark relief to Bush?s campaign, which has so far steered clear of releasing any major policy proposals...
