A recent piece in the New York Magazine chronicles the nightmarish journey of a young Arab immigrant. After September 11, Rasha found herself in jail with her family. Rasha's story sheds light on a darker side of national security.
What's Too Much? Are Safety Kits For Drug Users Worth It?
The back page of New York magazine every week is the Artifact feature, where they archive a tidbit of the city — this week was an annotated picture of the kit given by the city to drug users to ensure the safe usage of their substance of choice. I was more than surprised by its. .
Wish the Dem Convention Was Scripted Like the West Wing?
Oh, wish no longer! With all the squabbling around the delegates and the big convention in Denver looming, don't you wish you could just cozy up and watch the drama unfold, just like the good ol' days on West Wing? This is almost as good!

Bookmobile: Human Smoke By Nicholson Baker
If you're browsing the bookstore this weekend, take a peek for this new one. It's called Human Smoke: The Beginnings of World War II: The End of Civilization. OK, I know it sounds heavy, but bear with!Chart It Out: The Politician's TMI Index
Aw, I'd almost forgotten all about the whole Mark Foley thing until New York's Daily Intel put the recent sex scandals into a handy (Heh. I remember now.) chart aimed at answering that one crucial question: at what point is Info, Too Much.

I love almost anything New York magazine writes, so when they round up all of their election coverage, make it easy to find, and give it funny headings like: "Hairstyle and Its Evolution" and "Best Debate Smackdown," I'm set for hours of reading. They're calling it Electopedia, and I'm proclaiming it fantabagreat. Seriously, "Angriest Public Moment"?
Quiz Nation! Do You Know Your Secret Service Code Names?
If you get their protection, the Secret Service will bestow you with a secret code name so they can talk about your whereabouts privately.

On the Newsstand: I Love Chelsea Clinton
I feel like I grew up with Chelsea Clinton. We had braces at the same time, both wore those 90s-era flowery dresses, her dad was president, I saw her once at Stanford, you know — we're practically twins. But I didn't really know her until I cracked open this week's New York magazine.
On the Newsstand: The "Evita Factor" in New York Magazine
Hillary Clinton's doing well with Hispanic voters. In the Nevada caucuses she bested Barack 2-to-1 among that demographic, and polls heading into last Tuesday's primary in California showed her with 59 percent approval to Barack's 19 percent. New York magazine has a theory on this phenomenon, which they're calling the "Evita Factor."
