Jazz, bolero, flamenco, funk – all of these genres are fluidly woven together, then layered with her husky, sensual voice, and an electric stage presence.

"Everything you know about Iran is wrong, or at least more complicated than you think. Take the bomb. The regime wants to be a nuclear power but could well be happy with a peaceful civilian program (which could make the challenge it poses more complex). What's the evidence?

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has quoted the regime's founding father, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, who asserted that such weapons were "un-Islamic."" - ~C4Chaos from Bookmarklet
