Actually, for Christmas last year I gave my parents a special copy of the book that had all the sex scenes cut out. Then when some of the sex scenes were put up by websites in July - which was very misrepresentative of the book - my dad stumbled upon them and I basically said, You know, I tried to protect you from that, and if you sought it out on your own, that has to be your concern, not mine...

...Chrome looks like a "best of" browser, incorporating - and in some cases, improving upon - a few of the most popular features of its competitors.

...city where I was born and raised is still waiting for rescue. Three years ago this week, in the wake of the Katrina disaster, I returned there as a correspondent for the Wall Street Journal. What I saw upon arriving was a city that looked more like a Brazilian favela than one of America's most crucial ports. Riding through the streets on the back of a boat steered by a pair of shotgun-toting sheriff's deputies from Indiana, I saw colorless bodies bobbing in the water, often tethered to light posts.
