• Bredesen Open to Mayors' View -- Will Listen 'Respectfully' to Pitch for Changes in Control of City School System

NASHVILLE - Gov. Phil Bredesen said Thursday he will listen with an open mind to Mayor Willie Herenton's proposal for more mayoral control of the Memphis school system, but he wants to ensure the schools' problems are "carefully diagnosed" before acting.

ATLANTA - Looking like a candidate, President Bush brought his campaign for senior citizens to Georgia on Friday, talking up his Medicare overhaul and his proposal for private Social Security accounts. Ignoring about three dozen war protesters across the street from the Atlanta Civic Center where he spoke, the relaxed president joked through an hourlong unscripted chat on seniors benefits.

The EPA is proposing amendments to the national emissions standards for hazardous air pollutants for Primary Aluminum Reduction Plants to address the results of the residual risk and technology review that the EPA is required to conduct by the Clean Air Act.

World music in the West is often diluted, packaged, Westernized and gussied up, more Mickey Hart than the Master Drummers of Burundi, more Ottmar Leibert than Paco de Lucia. Two upcoming shows, however, are about to impress upon us just what world music should be. Zakir Hussain's Masters of Percussion, sponsored by the Outpost Performance Space in Albuquerque but gracing Santa Fe's Lensic, ought to shake some of the dust out, while the Late Severa Wires solve the pantywaist problem entirely by cutting loose of moorings altogether.
