...right. To overcome her paranoia, she eventually threw herself into her music, teaming with eclectic alt-rocker Beck to record her third album, IRM, released in the U.S. on Jan. 26. Gainsbourg also took a lead role in the Lars von Trier film Antichrist, which required her to attack Willem Dafoe with a shovel and simulate mutilating her own genitals. For her troubles, she won the Best Actress Award at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival. Gainsbourg - the daughter of French singer Serge Gainsbourg and British model Jane Birkin - spoke with TIME about working with Beck, her father's musical legacy...
...time Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos came to power in the Philippines in the mid- to late 1960s, Amorsolo's influence over neorealist painters like Anita Magsaysay-Ho, Jose Joya and Fernando Zóbel had been virtually obliterated.

Some see the problem as little more than a big real estate bust. "I don't see what the big deal is," Willem Buiter, economist at the London School of Economics and Political Science, wrote bluntly. Others see the Dubai crisis as the potential flashpoint for a new stage of the global crisis, a sign that heavily indebted sovereign states might begin having trouble financing their deficits, or that investors will reassess their...

Though they lost their buddy Roc (David Della Rocca), a bumbling, Mafia delivery boy, in the process, they seemed well on their way to completing their mission of eliminating Boston’s “scum”: mobsters, pimps, drug dealers, in short, anyone who offends their sense of right...
