ROBERT ILER plays Tony Soprano Jr., the doughy son of an enterprising, Machiavellian Mob boss on The Sopranos; he is also a child actor.

Plus, later in the week, I discovered that the cocky, Banana-Republic intern in the office down the hall was being paid twice as much as I was. Was I being penalized...
...when police fired teargas into a crowd of students. Criminal gangs took advantage of the unrest that followed to loot shops and burn cars. Hospital sources said three people died from gunshot wounds and another 18 were injured. PERU Montesinos Nabbed Vladimiro Montesinos, ex-President Alberto Fujimori's intelligence boss, is now behind bars after an eight-month manhunt. He is being questioned on bribery, money laundering and murder charges. Venezuelan cops nabbed Montesinos in Caracas, a step ahead of Peruvian agents, who had been alerted to the hideout by the FBI. The ex-spymaster may have evidence linking Fujimori...
