...then dragged over to the pavilion where Kaiser and Carter were being held facedown on the concrete with a sawed-off shotgun. "Do it!" one of the assailants commanded. And Carter was shot in the back of the head with a .22-cal. handgun at point-blank range. The attacker with the sawed-off shotgun took aim at Nicole's face. The trigger jammed, so the guy with the .22 fired two shots, one into Kaiser's head and another in Nicole's face...
Perhaps reluctant to recognize that the problem might be him, NEWT GINGRICH is saying goodbye to his messenger.

Never mind that the era gave rise to a slew of empowering female singer-songwriters; in Wolf's distorted algebra Tony Orlando cancels out the cultural weight of, say, Joni Mitchell...

Forcing Chirac to share power with Socialist Prime Minister Lionel Jospin, he argued, would deprive the President of a "blank check to dissolve the French nation into the Europe of Maastricht," referring to the treaty decreeing that the European Union will have a single currency and thus much closer economic and political integration in 1999.
