Finally, a dictionary for subversives: the Institute for Infinitely Small Things has come out with "The New American Dictionary: Interactive Security/Fear Edition.'' It includes new terms such as "axis of evil'' and "smart bomb'' and new definitions for old words such as "torture'' and "democracy.''

The book launch party is at 6:30-8:30 p.m. Thursday, April 26, at Art Interactive, 130 Bishop Allen Drive, Cambridge.
