...hoppers, however, have no monopoly on sexual angst. TV has also become obsessed with virgins, from Felicity, Buffy and Dawson to next season's Popular and Wasteland. The medium loves titillating and moralizing, and virgin dramas allow both, a situation that has changed little since the 1978 controversy over NBC's James at 15. Dan Wakefield, who created James, says NBC then balked not at James' deflowering but at his using birth control: "They said that if James has sex at age 16 and is not married, he must suffer and be punished." Just so, Buffy can lose her maidenhead...
...begin by stating flat-out that Belfast is not a war-torn, urban wasteland. There are bistros and McDonalds, university students and yuppies, beautiful buildings and historic landmarks. One can hear British, Irish, Australian, French, German and American accents just by wandering down University Road any Friday evening. And since the entire city sits surrounded by a ring of hills, on misty days it is magical to look out over the horizon to see these amazingly green hills fading...
...immediately renders you a neutral observer on virtually all touchy issues and questions, making it largely unnecessary to spend all your time worrying about offending anyone (I tend to spend merely a significant minority of my time worrying about that).

The Administration's price tag for patrolling and rehabilitating Kosovo will run into billions of dollars. But given that there are 400,000 displaced persons within Kosovo, things may be even worse. "We are all waiting with some trepidation," said...
...wasteland of the southern California desert and the feral terrain of the Mexican badlands, the barren landscape echoes the devastation and unspeakable immorality that festers there. Cyrus, the embodiment of pure, savage evil, is the leader of a devil-worshipping cult, the Left-Handed Path, whose lust for blood knows no limits. In a savage and seemingly senseless double-murder, a 14-year-old girl, Gabi, is kidnapped. Her father, Bob Hightower, with his ex-wife dead and his daughter missing, is more desperate than he ever imagined possible. A small-town cop, Bob frantically investigates every lead...
