Oman's loss, our gain -- everything I tried here was exceptionally good. Among the standouts were two sensational salsas, which just might be the best I've ever found.

The slayings in Duisburg, an industrial city in Germany's Ruhr region, marked the first time a southern Italian crime syndicate has exported a vendetta, Italian officials said.
