Meanwhile, Rudy Giuliani, the Republican front-runner according to the latest polls, was the subject of the fewest searches. This probably has no bearing on his popularity; it's most likely due to the fact that people can't spell "Giuliani." The most common Giuliani searches focus on his stance on taxes and the war. Beyond that, however, there's an odd obsession with finding images of "Rudy Giuliani in Drag," perhaps fueled by some circulating photos from a 2000 political roast. It's just weird...

But the implications of such posturing, by intimidating investment banks, shaking down corporations, and guilt-tripping college administrators, bode extremely ill for our politics.Political solutions, no matter how uncontroversial or widely supported, can never be flawless and exact.

Gerardi was bludgeoned to death in the parish house of his Guatemala City church the day after he published an exhaustive report of human rights violations by the Guatemalan army during the civil...
...members sporting pairs of nifty sunglasses. The video makes it clear, though, that !!! isn’t just a band that knows how to rock—they’re also a band that knows how to raise the dead. Necromancy isn’t really popular subject matter in the music video world, but lead singer Nic Offer produces the exception that proves the rule when the song’s pulsating beat leaves even the roadkill singing along. The fun, however confusing and uncomfortable, doesn’t end there. The boys catch a ride...
