By Alyson Brodsy · Thursday, Aug. 25,2005 12:57 a.m.

RAMALLAH, West Bank -- Conductor Daniel Barenboim brought together Israeli and Arab musicians for a concert that was as much about communication as it was about Beethoven and Mozart.

Making the top five sounds good to me, especially when you consider what we were up against.

Writer and artist Frank Miller's original seven-part graphic novel "Sin City" shook the comic-loving throngs to its collective knees when it was gradually released throughout the 1990's, and filmmaker Robert Rodriguez, a huge Miller fan himself, took notice.
